자주 묻는 질문

How many months of expenses should I save?

3 months if you have stable employment with a partner also working. 6 months for single income. 9-12 months for freelancers or volatile industries.

Where should I keep my emergency fund?

High-yield savings account (HYSA) — currently 4-5% APY. NOT in stocks (too volatile), NOT in CDs (locked up), NOT under the mattress (0% return, theft risk).
