[quote=Anonymous]Yes, with $40K in it which is 12 months of expenses (not actual expenses, but the shortfall after a couple of passive income streams that are not likely to be disrupted. It also assumes 6 months of unemployment compensation). I keep it at Capitol One earning a miserable .08% rate. It's mainly intended for job loss. I did tap it over the summer to pay for a new roof, which made me realize I should have a separate fund for that kind of thing, per your next question. So now I do. I add $400/month to that fund. I was very glad to have it this month when my rental property's condo board levied a $1600 special assessment. I'm still trying to build the emergency fund back up to its previous level, should have that done by end-year. [/quote]
