Hit $1,847 in my emergency fund last Friday and I actually teared up a little
For 14 months I've been putting $25 every Friday into a savings account I can't touch from my debit card. Last Friday the balance came out to $1,847, which is the first time I've ever had more than $1,000 saved at 29. I know it's not a huge number for some folks, but it's a full month of rent plus groceries for us. The weird part is the $25 felt like nothing each week, I barely noticed it leaving. I did a no-spend month in January and threw the leftover $210 in there, that's the only reason I crossed the line when I did. Now I'm trying to figure out if I should keep going to a full $3,000 or start splitting it between savings and my car loan. What did you all do at this point, keep stacking or switch to paying down debt?
