Emergency-Fund Builder

An educational routine for building a shock-absorbing cash cushion. You learn why even a small buffer reduces stress, set an achievable starter target, and automate contributions so it grows on its own. General education, not personalized financial advice.

Grade inherited from the evidence blocks this routine implements. Duration is a starting point (do more or less); the app just tells you where you land against the evidence-based dose.
