I just went to my budget tracker and the ranking of most expensive items in my “6 month emergency fund” is as follows:

1. Property Taxes
2. Groceries
3. Buford
4. Cell phone

The remaining items are all nickels and dimes.....It looks like I fit the article pretty well.

I had to just re-calibrate my budget to reflect the spending to date on this darn money grubber. He is now heads and tales above the “prop tax” line item! I am spending at a pace that equals prop tax plus cell phone!

I am sure that will slow down, so I cut it drastically for the EF, but if I only look at actual spending, then I fit the article perfectly.
