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.
