Frame an emergency fund with your actual cash flow

A useful target starts with essential outflows and available cash rather than a generic headline number.

An emergency-fund target is easier to reason about when it connects to the essential expenses already visible in your records.

RecehKu can total source-backed outflows. You still choose which expenses are essential and what planning horizon fits your circumstances.

Review several representative months.

Exclude transfers between accounts you own.

Revisit the target when recurring obligations change.
