[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not being smug. I'm genuinely confused how people taking home five to eight thousand a month, have no kids, have no major medical expenses, and have paid off most or all of their student loans cannot save enough for a one month emergency fund. I am a gs 13. After paying for the best health insurance and putting sevenpercent into my 401k, I take home 4400 a month. I spend two thousand on housing, and otherwise spend between six hundred to 1400 a month (300 student loan payment). I save at least a thousand a month without even trying hard.[/quote] We don’t have a dog in this fight, but you absolutely don’t know. Nobody knows that DH had surgeries last year. Nobody knows we had a major repair this year and then a leak that took all of our savings. You. Do. Not. Know.[/quote]
