If the emergency left only a few bucks in your savings, don’t be disheartened. Instead, focus on replenishing your fund with a side job that doesn’t require much of your time. For example, you can sign up as a part-time driver for taxi-hiring services like PassApp, Grab, Wego, Tada and so on.
Financial emergencies can be stressful, but with careful research and decision-making, you can get back on your feet. And once you can, try setting up an emergency fund to stay prepared for future emergencies.
