While New Year&#8217;s resolutions are on top of everyone&#8217;s mind, there&#8217;s no better time to get started. Over the next couple of weeks, I want you to ask yourself &#8220;How can you do a better job at savings for the long term, but also save for now?&#8221; Emergency savings are money we set aside for real emergencies, so an unexpected medical bill, car problems, or you lose your job. Emergency savings make up one of your three important savings buckets (other buckets are medium and long-term savings).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Since you&#8217;ll probably be receiving\u00a0your first paycheck in 2018 soon, we challenge you to go to your HR and get a direct deposit slip and automatically save money each paycheck into a designated emergencies savings account. If you don&#8217;t have an account yet, determine how much money you can set aside each paycheck, and regardless if you&#8217;re saving $10, $100, or $1,000 decide what you can save and do it. Ideally, the goal is to have 3-6 months of savings built. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: transparent;\">Hope you&#8217;ve enjoyed this video and be on the lookout for our next one soon!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>(function(d, s, id) {\n  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\n  if (d.getElementById(id)) return;\n  js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;\n  js.src = \"\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_GB\/all.js#xfbml=1&status=0\";\n  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);\n}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/moneynav.com\/blog\/ready-build-emergency-savings?hsLang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Introducing, Money Hack &amp; Tips with Alex Assaley.
