    Ok let’s poll Lemmy. Upvote me if you can. Downvote me if you can’t. I can so I’ll keep my own upvote.

      Can’t see downvotes, assume everyone is okay. New article: 190% of people on Lemmy can afford a $1,000 emergency expense

      Edit: 190% was a typo, but leaving it in there

      Depends. I have enough in savings to cover the cost, sure, but there’s only enough in savings because I’ve been transferring about 25% of my paycheck to savings for the past 2 years in order to afford a wedding/honeymoon. So I’d just be pushing myself into a larger credit debt after the bills come due for the wedding services.
