I have $1150 in my emergency fund, although two weeks ago I would have been able to check the $2500-$5000 one since I had been saving up for my tuition payment. Another semester...another round of padding the account! But it truly makes life easier to save up and plan for expected expenses, above and beyond the emergency fund which does not get touched unless it really is an emergency.

I don't keep a lot of money in my checking account, which is mainly for paychecks going in and bills going out.

I don’t keep a lot of money in my checking account, which is mainly for paychecks going in and bills going out.
