Are you treating your emergency fund like a financial afterthought — or a true wealth-building tool?

Let’s face it: stashing money away for “just in case” doesn’t exactly spark excitement. Most people either avoid building an emergency fund altogether or assume a line of credit will save the day. But what happens when access to borrowing tightens, or a true emergency hits? This episode challenges the traditional, passive approach to emergency funds — and offers a smarter, more strategic alternative that works with your wealth-building goals, not against them.

This episode is a re-broadcast from episode 54. First released in December 2023.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • How much you really need in an emergency fund — and how to calculate it without guesswork
  • Why typical advice (like keeping cash in a savings account) might actually be costing you money
  • A creative, lesser-known strategy that transforms your emergency fund into a safe, flexible opportunity fund

Learn how to supercharge your emergency fund and make it work harder for your financial future — press play now.

Discover which phase of wealth creation you are in. Take our quick assessment and you’ll receive a custom wealth-building pathway that matches your phase and learn our CRA compliant tax optimized strategies. Take that assessment here.
