• Emergency Savings
  Financial security is achieved through financial planning.  A significant part of that planning must be an emergency savings account.  With it you will be prepared for any emergency or tough times.  The question is, how much should you save?  How much is enough?  The answer – three to six months worth of expenses is a general guideline.  Those who are self employed need to save nine to twelve months worth of expenses.
