In a perfect world, everyone would have more than enough money. Our accounts would be perfectly organized. Not only would we know what the balance was in our checking account every minute of every day, we'd have that perfect rainy-day fund of six months' living expenses tucked safely away. And we'd have another heap of money earning stellar returns in financial markets, ready to help us pay for everything from college to cars to retirement. But the world isn’t perfect and neither are most of our financial habits. In fact, a survey from Bankrate reports that 29 percent of Americans don’t have any emergency savings at all. And only 22 percent said they had enough to pay for at least six months of expenses.
