Conclusions

1. Establish an Emergency Fund

Hold about six months of expenses as liquid assets in case of an emergency.

• Savings accounts are the best option for this due to modest interest rates and high liquidity.
• Your investment settlement fund is also a good option to keep some money in, assuming the money is automatically invested in a money market account, which is the case for mainstream financial institutions like Vanguard. This money is slightly less liquid because it would take a couple of days to ACH transfer to your bank.
• Credit Cards can also be thought of as a component of an emergency fund. If you have several credit cards, you can easily have a six figure credit limit. This method of payment is disconnected from your bank. Having a diverse set of credit cards can help if any particular card is declined.

2. Contribute to your Roth 401(k)

Contribute up to employer match.

401(k) accounts are employer-sponsored retirement accounts that confer tax benefits. There is a penalty if you withdraw money before retirement.

• Retirement at some point is still likely even if it is undesirable
• You get free money: employers will typically match some percentage of your contributions
• You can invest your money in these accounts tax-free
• Assets can be donated without paying income tax once rolled over to a Traditional IRA

3. Contribute to your Roth IRA
