That is so darn smart Paulette! You don’t know when it will happen, but you’re ready for when it does.

We have a private well and have a savings account labeled “well pump”. When a well pump goes, there is no warning and all of a sudden you have no water. My neighbor just had their pump replaced for $3000. Fortunately I have $3200 waiting for this crisis.
We have survived months without any income several times in 40 years of marriage. Including 4 months in 2019. Savings kept us fed and the insurances, such as car and home, paid. We have lived on $20-22,000 for 8 years. It can be done!
