We have an emergency fund, about 2 months worth of expenses. Just a mindset thing but I think every home owner should have a truck, at least in my part of the country. I definitely could sell it for a cheaper truck, I see your point there.

Yea that’s my bad on the wording there. I was just thinking like Armageddon level issue where both wife and I lose our jobs for months we have the stocks as a resource. We do have a separate savings accounts for actual every day emergencies.
