Default Re: Question About Emergency Fund

The other factor here is the availability of credit cards. I assume Fern has a credit card with a decent limit that she can tap into temporarily in the case of an emergency. She has funds available to pay it off when the bill comes, but this would give her immediate spending power to cover an emergency situation.
