    A good financial manager will projects how much money an individual will need in order to maintain positive cash flow, allocate funds to grow or add new products or services and cope with unexpected events, and shares that information with business colleagues.

    One problem with "math-based" thinking, where you keep very little in cash in favor of higher-return investments is this: the very circumstances which create an urgent need for cash are often the same circumstances which cause the market to temporarily tank. Then, you need to fire sell your investments to raise cash. I'd go with Dave's advice on this one, maybe using an online bank to get a little better return on that cash.

If you have to spend 10k on 6-9% interest making min payments you pay more in interest then you would losing 2-3% on that 10k invested because life happens and it happens more often then you think =).

    For me, $3K in a checking account won't even pay my bills past a month. Even if his monthly expenses is less than mine, $3K is still too little liquid to have.
    I wouldn't put myself in a position where if an emergency comes up, I'd be forced to sell my investment especially when said investment is at a low, so it would be selling it at a loss. That's a terrible position to put myself in, which I'd never do. A safe liquid amount for a low expense person would be around $30K, but that's just my opinion.

      it's so variable person to person you really can't judge what is a good amount for someone else in a different city... I've got over a year's worth of expenses in cash and I like the security - and yes I've got other investments so I'll be fine in the tiny chance that the dollar goes into hyperinflation. I think people get too focused on the "don't have anything but the bare minimum in cash" cuz you're losing money thing

    As Little as possible. Enough to pay your normal monthly outgoings, like a mortgage. and food. Put all you can afford into bullion. In an emergency you can cash in a Golden Eagle or two. If your bank goes belly up you can't lose much.

    In regards to an emergency fund, I’d rather invest my money in a mutual fund and have a line of credit for quick access to cash. What if you sat on the cash for 5 years because you never had an emergency? The opportunity cost there would be far greater than the potential need to access a line of credit short term.

      The buffer recently came up for us in conversation. We are on BS3B. Our FFEF lives in our savings out but we have about 1K (half a month's expenses) in the checking account as a buffer. When emergencies pop up we usually pay off from the buffer instead of pulling from the savings account.

    I’m just curious, why can he not have his checking account and put the bulk of his emergency fund into a high interest savings account that you also have access to? Maybe the US banks or credit unions don’t have a savings account where you have daily access?. I know that I have several savings accounts where I earn higher interest and I have my one checking account where I get no interest. And I just transfer monthly or if necessary weekly any funds that I need in my checking account to pay bills. Seems like a no-brainer to me. Savings account for the bulk of the emergency fund and checking account for every day expenses. You can just transfer over online from savings to checking, which is what I do.
