imho; you should have enough cash at any time to last 2 months and a little bit extra to get the fuck out of dodge if the shit hits the fan.
If i cant access any of my accounts via atm's or online banking, I have enough cash for 2 months living
plus my gold
which is easily transported/sold
Don't rely on having that gold watch cause the girl would have already sold it, which is why you have to get the fuck out of town.

I have mortgage free rental income and savings. You need a lot of savings to cover any repair costs. But who knows. A meteor shower could strike the city!

Re: Whats your rainy day fund
It probably makes sense to maintain some funds in an off-site location, ie: storage locker, gas tank a la "Easy Rider", dead drop ...
Re: Whats your rainy day fund
Not as much as I'd like.
Some sellable items, some precious metals and a few bucks.

A girl I knew awhile back---she had 3 full kidneys! I really wouldn't doubt it if she cashed in on one by now.

how much $$ do you have available?
Would you be able to make it??
- What if you suddenly lost your job and it was 6-8 weeks before unemployment payments began to trickle in?
What if your child suffered a medical emergency and you needed to purchase an expensive medication?
What if your refrigerator began making a death rattle and you needed to buy a new one immediately in order to save your expensive frozen food stockpile?
What if your car, that you needed to get back and forth to work, required a costly repair?
Most experts recommend a starting point of 1-3 months of expenses. And by expenses, I mean everything from house payments to car payments to projected utilities to food costs.
Don’t underestimate how much it takes to run your household every month – be sure to account for all of the regular expenses you might need to cover during an emergency situation.
