Default Re: Best place for the ol' Emergency Fund

Well, if you have $1000 saved, I am assuming you are on DR's plan?

If that's the case, DR recommends keeping that $1000 in a place that is easily accessable but not so easy that you will be tempted to use it for non-emergencies. He also recommends not using the money for investing....it's for emergencies.

However, I don't see how putting it into a higher interest earning account could hurt as long as you can easily (withing a day) access the money and no big penalities for taking money out.
