Coverage based on your own target

This check uses the monthly essential-expense amount and target number of months you enter. It does not prescribe how large an emergency fund should be.

Methodology

How this resource works

Months currently covered = current emergency savings ÷ essential monthly expenses. Target amount = essential monthly expenses × target coverage months. Gap = max(0, target amount − current savings).
