I'm not sure what the intent of this was, maybe an accounting thing, but in practice several biglawyers used this money to free up space on their credit cards to buy shit for Christmas.

Date: February 19th, 2018 11:52 AM Author: Startling fiercely-loyal shrine genital piercing There's some truth to this, but the way these statistics are gathered is egregious flame.
https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/18/few-americans-have-enough-savings-to-cover-a-1000-emergency.html
(39% say they would pay out of savings, 19% with a credit card, 13% by reducing spending on other things, 12% with a family/friend loan, 5% with a personal loan).
Paying "with a credit card" is something you might do even if you have plenty of savings-- cop that 0% interest and rewards, otherwise you're basically throwing money away. Similarly, even if you're saving plenty, you might got back on spending on other things rather than dip into your savings. So surveys like this really only show that at least 17% are hahabrokefucked, 39% are fine-ish, and it's hard to tell for the rest. It's always like this, there will be some headline like "only 15% of Americans have $1,000 saved" but when you actually check the survey it asks specifically about savings accounts (who keeps money in a savings account any more??) |
