for example, let's say your car broke down and needed a $1000 repair. let's say you had the option to get rides to work, but you also had $1000 in your emergency fund. would you use your emergency money to fix your car or would you save it?
to me, an "emergency" is when I have NO other option but to use that money. it always seems like I get into the worst situations when I have no money and I have to beg my friends to bail me out so now I'm super tight with my emergency funds.
my roommate says she just spent all of her savings on a vacation to florida. I can't help but wonder if the motor on her car is gonna blow up the second she gets back because that's seriously something that would happen to me!
