Mark your safety net and set its level

Mark the cash you keep for emergencies, so it never counts as idle cash.

  1. Open Allocation. Under Safety net, select Mark safety net accounts.
  2. Switch on the accounts that hold your safety net.
  3. To keep only part of one aside, change its percent. Then select Done.
  4. For its level, open Settings › General. On a phone, Settings is under More.
  5. Under Money profile, select Edit profile.
  6. Type a Safety net level, then select Save profile.

By default, the level is 6 months × your burn rate.
