Those graphs make it look scary but clearly the stock market had trended upwards. If you're using your emergent fund within a year or two of putting the money in, I would argue it's not an emergency.

Bail is a weird thing to be planning for and I don't think you have the timeline right on how quickly bail is set.

But my main point was to simply put money aside at even the smallest amount rather than make excuses.

Putting it in an investment account rather than a savings account sitting right next to your checking account is too easily to access. The withdrawal delay can be a feature.

The balance of the emergency fundis not something one should be seeing or thinking about as often as one sees and thinks about their bill payment account.

Even if one is only comfortable using a saving account, I would still suggest using a separate financial entity.

This only works because accordion is close according, not because they sound alike which is what everyone is attempting in these comments.

This is similar to the phenomena that allows jumbled words to be read, it's about context clues not puns.

It's never the nameless developer's credibility that is being harmed.

I beginning to suspect it's the pills that have convinced us this is last-stage capitalism instead of simply next-stage capitalism.

Agreed. This is just another reason though. For what it's worth, I vote "against" for him with my handful of shares.

I suggest we reduce this to "Trump politicizes 67 tragic deaths." With the next one being "Trump politicizes another 83 tragic death, total stands at 150"

I bet he can hit at least six digits by the end of the year.

This always felt like banker advice to me. That's an insane percentage of cash to have sitting in an account that's earning less interest than the rate of inflation.

I would suggest everyone have a stock investment account and not worry about the percentage. Setting aside $1 per month is infinitely better than $0.

Where does the meme imply the other browser is a Google product?

Translucent products had been around for a decade prior to those iMacs. If anything, they marked the beginning of the end for the trend.
