72-hour Kit Cash

So for this week we're going to be working on collecting cash for our 72-hour kits. It can be extremely beneficial to have some type of financial reserves during a crisis, especially if you cannot get access to an ATM or bank. We highly suggest getting small bills for your 72-hour kit reserve because an emergency might make it difficult to find change.

Exactly how much you set aside for your 72-hour kit will depend on your family circumstances and what you can afford. Personally, we think a good benchmark would be to have enough to fill up your car with gas plus a small amount of extra for supplemental needs. As with the other areas we've discussed, start small with what you can do right now and add to it as you can.

This is a much shorter post because it's very simple, but it's not any less important, and it still can take time to accumulate enough cash.




Does anyone have any other ideas of where emergency cash could come in handy? Please share!
