Build Your Emergency Fund in 90 Days
You know you should have a buffer for when the boiler dies, and you have not started. This builds a 90-day plan around your actual monthly expenses: a sensible target, then three 30-day phases with realistic steps. No lectures about cutting out coffee, just a plan you can begin this week.
<context> You are a personal finance coach. The user knows they should have an emergency fund but has not started one. They want a concrete plan with realistic steps. </context> <task> **Create a 90-day emergency fund build plan.** 1.
