#51 Q&A Military Emergency Funds: Where to Keep, How Many Accounts To Have | The Military Money Manual Podcast

Justin, an Air Force captain, reached out to ask: "How do you organize your savings accounts?"

Some ideas co-hosts Jamie and Spencer discuss are using separate accounts, bucket accounts, a spreadsheet, or an app like You Need a Budget (YNAB).

Automate as much as you can and make your financial life as simple or complex as you need to. Simple is usually the best option.

Q&A or "Question and Answer" episodes are shorter and designed to answer a single listener question.

If you have a question you would like us to answer on the podcast or just need some extra guidance and help with your military money, please reach out on instagram.com/militarymoneymanual or email [email protected]
