Re: Building an emergency fund with little income
Okay, I know it's tight for you but how about just taking 10% off the top and sticking it back and making the cuts in your food area and possibly w/less driving. Ask the folks to drive to you right now while you guys are on limited income. That would give you $120.00 a month to put back which is nothing to sneeze at. Have it set up to do it automatically and learn to live on less. Not easy but doable.
Can't do 10% right off? Try 4 or 5% and build up to it in 1% or 2% increments every month or two.
