Before you invest a single rupee โ build this first. ๐งฑ
Most people jump straight into investing without a safety net. One emergency and everything falls apart. Don't let that be you.
What is an Emergency Fund?
It is a dedicated amount of money set aside for life's unexpected moments โ kept liquid, safe, and easily accessible. Not in stocks. Not in mutual funds. Ready when you need it most.
How much should you save?
๐ฐ Salaried โ 6 months of expenses
๐ฐ Self-employed โ 9 to 12 months of expenses
๐ฐ Single income household โ at least 6 to 9 months
What does it cover?
๐ฅ Medical emergencies and hospital bills
๐ผ Sudden job loss or income disruption
๐ง Urgent home or vehicle repairs
๐ Any unexpected expense that cannot wait
Where should you keep it?
โ
Savings account โ instant access
โ
Liquid mutual fund โ redeemable in 1 day
โ
Short-term FD โ safe and stable
Without it, you will be forced to break your investments at the worst possible time.
Build your Emergency Fund first. Then start your SIP. Then invest.
