How to use this tool
Enter monthly living expenses, target months of coverage (for example 6), current emergency savings, and how much you can save each month. Calculate to see your target amount, gap, and timeline.
Worked example
Example: $4,000 monthly expenses with a 6-month target needs $24,000. With $8,000 saved and $800 saved monthly, you have a $16,000 gap reachable in about 20 months.
How it works
Multiplies monthly expenses by your target months of coverage to set a savings goal. Subtracts current savings to find the gap, then divides by monthly savings to estimate how long until you are fully funded. Interest on savings is not included.
