Smart financial planning doesn’t only mean assigning goals and saving for them. It also includes a good emergency plan. Life is full of surprises, some of which can be very unpleasant.

Recessionary conditions or manpower cuts are cyclical trends that our economy has seen in the last 2 decades. Given that such a situation can be predicted but can’t be timed to perfection, the well planned individual always has an emergency fund at his disposal. |
