Why You Should Never Ignore an Emergency Fund – Even If You’re Young
Most people think emergency funds are only for older adults or families. But unexpected situations — job loss, medical emergency, or family issues — can happen to anyone, at any age.
What is an Emergency Fund?
It’s a small savings buffer (₹10,000 to ₹1,00,000+) that you don’t touch unless there’s a real emergency.
Why You Need It:
-
Peace of mind
-
No need to borrow from friends or take high-interest loans
-
Quick response in crisis
How to Start One?
-
Begin with just ₹500/month
-
Keep it in a separate bank account
-
Automate your savings if possible
Final Thought:
You may not need it every month — but when you do, you’ll thank yourself for starting early.
