We have one and we've made sure our children have as well.

Although I disagree on some of the strategies he plies Dave Ramsey is a great resource for putting you back in charge of your money.

If you don't have an emergency fund, you will eventually be ass out. Murphy's Law is real.

I can't really say I have an "emergency fund" to speak of however, we don't have any debt and a pretty good nest egg that could cover us for a couple years in the event of an emergency. Taking money out is easy and can become a habit, putting it back, not quite as easy so we next to never take anything out and live within our means.
