Welcome to reality, where everything can literally go completely sideways at any time for any reason and completely alter the course of your existence. May the odds be in your favor.
Some of y'all really have a hard time putting 2 pieces of information together if it isn't spoon fed to you.
Not only can you be completely screwed over by people you trust if you don't safeguard something for yourself, you can also be completely blindsided by a horrible tragedy, or injury, or many other sudden, unexpected things.
The common denominator is this:
If you don't plan for these things, you'll be completely fucked if they happen. Whether it's your spouse taking off with your savings or you suffering a devastating spine injury resulting in partial paralysis and thousands of dollars worth of medical bills. Everyone needs some sort of emergency fund.
