Episode description as stored
$1,000 Is No Longer Enough! I have to say it. I taught the $1,000 emergency fund rule for years. Today, I'm officially changing it — and I'm owning that.
In 2026, a minor car accident costs $1,500–$3,000. One ER visit? Same. A broken water heater? Up to $2,000. The truth is, you can lose $1,000 in the time it takes to sneeze. The economy has changed, and our advice has to change with it.
In this video, I'm breaking down:
- Why $1,000 is no longer enough as a starter emergency fund
- The new number I'm teaching (and why it works)
- The 4 rules to protect your emergency fund
- Exactly how to build it — step by step
- Where to keep it so your money actually works for you
