I know if I needed to grab a plane ticket immediately, I could. Definitely working on building up an actual emergency fund, but the security from knowing I have a solution, even if it is a bad one, is very comforting.

My girlfriend definitely knows my financial situation and I know hers. She even let me check out her TSP accounts when the paperwork came in. I appreciate that she is making great money choices. I absolutely appreciate that she loves me even as I am working off my student loans. I’m on the right trajectory.

I can’t have a potential husband’s debt weighing me down; debt is fine but the guy should handle (pay it off) it first before marriage.

I’m glad my lady is doing okay with finances and is totally fine with me overtaking the most of the financial planning.

I’m still studying but I was lucky to get a huge amount of unexpected money. I’ve put all of it into an emergency fund, so now I have enough in it for 4-6 months.

But one last question. Am I just a freaking money nerd or why am I shocked by the number of people who don’t check the finances before marriage? I’ve talked to my girl about finances after 2 months of our relationship. :O

We haven’t had an emergency in years (at least not a big one), but it’s always nice to know you’re not a statistic :)

ACK!!! I’m glad you told us the happy ending at the end!!! Was it the same dog as your blog icon??? He looks nice and happy there! ;) Really glad to hear of his recovery… and a great reminder too that having a pet is a responsibility not to be taken lightly! So many of us get them on whims and then don’t properly care for them.. I used to be that way and cringe every time I think about it :(

that is pretty cool :) no shame in finding ways to spend more time together as a family either! I’d pay big bucks for that.
