    I have a comfortable enough social safety net that I’m okay running it a bit lower depending on context (like going over the threshold to visit family for holidays or meet investment goals). Obviously, need to pay that back, but I haven’t really needed it yet either.

    If I actually went negative, I have access to other money.

    Right now I’m a bit low due to some delayed invoice payments from clients, a recent surgery, and flights and other costs related to the Holidays.

    I wouldn’t do like a year, that seems way too much, unless your work is very unstable and you have no social safety net.

    3 months is comfortable.
