What are good reasons to have an emergency fund?

November 13, 2021 by First Choice Support

Good reasons to have an emergency fund are simple – any event where you would need to pay for expenses at a time of emergency.

  • Medical and dental bills (unplanned)
  • Job loss
  • Home repair
  • Car repair

It is definitely not pleasant to think about, but all of these could occur to you and your household at any time.
