Experian offers help to boost emergency savings

Techstination feature for Wednesday, February 25, 2026

Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.  I’m Fred Fishkin.    How much have you set aside for emergency savings.  According to Experian…nearly one in four Americans have no emergency savings to cover unexpected expenses and fifty percent of consumers listed saving more as one of their goals for this year.   Experian’s Senior Director of Consumer Education and Advocacy, Rod Griffin says while it often isn’t easy..

“What I always recommend is figure out how much you can set aside.  Just a little bit each month can make a big difference.   So twenty dollars a month, thirty dollars a month, fifty dollars a month…whatever you can put aside into a savings account.  Create that habit and grow it over time.  Eventually you’re going to get there.”

Experian of course, does credit ratings…but also has tools to help manage your money.  Learn more at Experian.com.
