Emergency or Not? Making the Right Money Decisions

Not all savings are the same

Some are used for unexpected expenses
Some are used for planned expenses
Some are used for optional expenses

Knowing the difference helps you decide when to use your savings and which type to use

When to Use an Emergency Fund

There are only 3 reasons when an emergency fund should be used:

Unexpected expense
Necessary expense
Urgent expense

Examples:

Car breaks down on a road trip
Trip to the E.R. after a broken bone
Fired/let go from a job

When to Use a Sinking Fund

There are several reasons a sinking fund might be used:

Expected expense
Goals
Not urgent

Examples:

Family vacation
New car
Phone repair for a cracked screen

Where to Keep These Savings

These funds can be stored in either a traditional savings account, a HYSA, or a combination of both. Here are a few strategies:

Emergency Fund

If you have more than $1,000 in emergency fund savings, keep 75% in a HYSA and 25% in a traditional savings account (for quick access and convienience).
If you have less than $1,000, keep it all in a traditional savings account

Sinking Fund

If you need frequent or quick access to your savings, keep it in a traditional account
If the planned expense or goal is more than a few months away or you want to let your money sit and grow, keep it in a HYSA

Key Takeaway

Not EVERY expense is an emergency
PLAN ahead with sinking funds
PROTECT yourself with emergency funds
Let the funds GROW over time in a HYSA
