I am 26 years old, married, and have a 9 month old son. I've been trying to do better money wise, and established an emergency fund over the last few months, but it has recently been wiped out. While driving to work our only car broke down and repairs totaled more than my savings.
I have paid off the repair costs and am back up and running, but living without that fund makes me very uncomfortable. I pay into my 401k regularly as it's partially company matched. My question is, do you think I should stop paying into it until my emergency fund is back? I don't want to lose free money from the match, but I am scared that if anything else happens I won't be able to handle it financially.
