[quote=Anonymous]Yes, after wrecking my older car in a bad accident and needing to replace it quickly. Didn't have full coverage since the car wasn't worth that much (maybe $3k), but took $12k from my emergency fund to buy a nicer replacement. If I'd had to line up a loan, I wouldn't have been able to jump on the deal (private family friend selling it and had 3 people interested). Used it to float expenses after our house was severely damaged in a hail storm - 8 windows broken and other major damage. Eventually reimbursed from insurance but having the cash let us get repairs started faster than most of our neighbors. Unexpected pet medical expenses. [/quote]
