15. Of course it is

But starvation is worse than being financial irresponsible.

Those are valid, and good ideas, but for folks barely making it 5% might as well be 500%

Hell even 6 months isnt enough.

I know engineers who lost $100k jobs and it took them 18 months to find work at half the pay.

In order to truly be insulated against bankruptcy, you need at least $200k in liquid savings.
