Emergency Savings Fund Could End Up Saving You Money

STATEN ISLAND, NY.Y -- It may not be easy to create, especially in tough economic times, but having an emergency fund could save you money.

An emergency fund is money set aside for unplanned expenses.

According to the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs, you should save what amounts to three to six months of your income.

During emergencies, such as job loss, health problems, natural disasters – or even a costly auto repair – digging into your emergency savings fund is better than taking out a high-interest loan that can lead to debt problems.

For advice on establishing an emergency savings fund, visit any one of Victory State Bank’s five convenient branches.
