In one of his videos, he addresses a crucial topic for anyone who wants to have a healthy financial life: <strong>emergency savings.<\/strong><\/p><div style=\"height:6px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"video-container\"><iframe title=\"RESERVA DE EMERG\u00caNCIA: O que \u00e9 e como investir | Onde investir seu Fundo de Emerg\u00eancia?\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tNLboV75two?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure><div style=\"height:6px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is an Emergency Reserve?<\/h2><p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Breno begins the video by explaining the concept of emergency reserves. It defines it as an <strong>amount of money stipulated by each person, intended to cover the cost of living that you have during a certain period<\/strong>. This reserve is essential to deal with unforeseen situations, such as health problems in the family, layoffs or even the need to change residence.<\/p><div style=\"height:6px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Much Do I Need for an Emergency Fund?<\/h2><p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The question many ask themselves is: how much money do I need to have in my emergency fund? Breno suggests that we should consider our fixed costs and how long we want to have this financial insurance. He recommends that the emergency fund be sufficient to cover <strong>at least six months of expenses<\/strong>.<\/p><p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">For example, if your monthly expenses with basic expenses such as food, rent, water, electricity, gas, cell phone\/telephone and health\/insurance bills total $2,500, you should multiply this amount by six (the number of months recommended by Breno ). This results in an emergency reserve of $15,000.<\/p><div style=\"height:6px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to Invest the Emergency Reserve?<\/h2><p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Choosing where to invest your emergency fund is crucial. Breno advises that the emergency reserve be invested in fixed income assets, which offer low risk and high liquidity. He mentions the Selic Treasury as a common and safe option, as it earns daily income and follows the Selic rate.<\/p><p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Breno also highlights Bank Deposit Certificates (CDBs) that yield at least 100% of the CDI as a good option for an emergency reserve. He specifically mentions Banco Inter&#8217;s daily liquidity CDB, which is a very affordable and profitable option available on the market. Furthermore, CDBs have the advantage of being guaranteed by the Credit Guarantee Fund (FGC), which means that, even if the bank goes bankrupt, the investor is guaranteed up to a limit of $250,000.00.<\/p><p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Another option mentioned is the Nubank interest-bearing account, which also yields 100% of the CDI and has the advantage of being easy to access for many investors.<\/p><p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Always remember that the choice of investment for the emergency reserve must take into account the ease of retrieving the money, as in an emergency situation, liquidity is a very important factor.<\/p><div style=\"height:6px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"515\" src=\"https:\/\/moneysuite.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Reserva-de-emergencia-Breno-Perrucho-1-1024x515.png\" alt=\"Reserva de emerg\u00eancia - Breno Perrucho\" class=\"wp-image-2592\" srcset=\"https:\/\/moneysuite.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Reserva-de-emergencia-Breno-Perrucho-1-1024x515.png 1024w, https:\/\/moneysuite.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Reserva-de-emergencia-Breno-Perrucho-1-300x151.png 300w, https:\/\/moneysuite.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Reserva-de-emergencia-Breno-Perrucho-1-150x75.png 150w, https:\/\/moneysuite.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Reserva-de-emergencia-Breno-Perrucho-1-800x402.png 800w, https:\/\/moneysuite.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Reserva-de-emergencia-Breno-Perrucho-1-768x386.png 768w, https:\/\/moneysuite.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Reserva-de-emergencia-Breno-Perrucho-1-700x352.png 700w, https:\/\/moneysuite.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Reserva-de-emergencia-Breno-Perrucho-1-500x251.png 500w, https:\/\/moneysuite.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Reserva-de-emergencia-Breno-Perrucho-1.png 1118w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><div style=\"height:6px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2><p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Breno Perrucho emphasizes the importance of planning to build an emergency reserve and choosing the correct investments for this purpose.
