There is a study that found the percentage of people that could afford even a $1000 emergency and its very low. Like below 20%

That's what I thought about before coming into this topic.

It made me realize how blessed I am.


I wouldn't necessarily say you are blessed, just smarter at managing your finances. A lot of those people with no savings are not actually poor people at all. A lot of them actually make very good money, but they spend it all and don't save anything. They're idiots who don't know how to manage their finances.

There are also a lot of people that live paycheck to paycheck. Not poor, but just dont really have enough to save. Sometimes, they can throw something in, sometimes, they dont have enough...

Thats. what I was thinking of when I said blessed. Some people aren't at a point in life where they can afford to save. Sometimes it's ineptitude, other times it's just circumstance.
