12/30/19 @ 1:40 p.m. - Emergencies are unpredictable and when they happen, your financial stability can be at risk. Whether its an illness, job loss, home or car repair, your cash flow can be majorly affected if you aren't prepared.
Begin planning an emergency fund so that you have savings to offset the sting of an unexpected financial burden. A good rule of thumb is to put away at least 3 to 6 months worth of expenses to use as a safety net.
Also, don't forget that most standard homeowners insurance policies don't cover flooding. Just a few inches of flooding can lead to loss of thousands of dollars to your home or business. Most policies require a 30 days waiting period before the coverage becomes effective. Begin looking for a policy today to ensure you are covered before a flood risk approaches.
