Budget with a goal of being able to save 6-12 months worth, based on your comfort level. 4. Reducing expenditures on non-essential items. If you save some more money by cutting back on discretionary spending, you will be able to speed up the process of building your emergency account. Discover and separate the needs from the wants for you cutback the extra spending on dining, entertainment, and the other things. [/QUOTE]
