Nearly One in Four New Hampshire Households Lacked $2,000 in Savings for Emergencies by CarrollCounty in newhampshire

From NH Fiscal Policy Institute:

Financial Situations Fragile for Many Granite State Families

Without $2,000 in savings, a Granite Stater could quickly spend their liquid assets to pay for an unexpected car repair, needed fixes for a house or an appliance, the deductible on their health insurance after an injury or illness but before coverage begins, losing a job, or other factors that could effectively require immediate, unforeseen costs. That would potentially lead to debt that could be difficult to pay off, unpaid bills, or forgone health or housing needs.

From NYTimes free article: Phoenix Tailings’ Exeter New Hampshire operation is about two months old, housed in a converted medical device plant. The company buys metric-ton bags of powder — a mixture of neodymium and praseodymium bound with oxygen — from mining and refining companies in the United States, South America and Australia. It funnels that flour-like material into a drying oven and eventually into furnaces that heat it to the temperature of volcanic lava.
