I've been doing a good job slowly adding money into my Emergency Fund even after I had 6 months of living expenses saved. The past two years I have just thrown about $75 per pay check into it and pretended it wasn't there.
But now I have to open it up and drop $3,400 on a relatively significant car repair. It hurts to watch that hard work get washed away so easily, but it hurts a lot less than needing to finance it or something. (I'll be putting it on a zero interest CC for the cash back (1.5% back), and paying it off in a few chunks. I value my liquidity too much to just drop a check like that lol).
Thanks PF for teaching me the value of the Emergency Fund!
