Frequently asked questions
How big should an emergency fund be?
A classic guide is 3–6 months of essential expenses; more if your income is unstable. The calculator sizes the goal against your monthly expenses.
Where should I keep it?
Somewhere liquid and low-risk (a current or savings account, or a deposit) — the goal is access, not return.
Is this a forecast or investment advice?
No. The result is an educational illustration based on assumptions you set — not a forecast, and not investment advice or a recommendation. You make the decision.
