    Talking WOOHOO!!

    I'm trying my best to load up our baby emergency fund so I can get our snowball rolling. I am happy to say that I've made over $600 selling items on Ebay in the past 2 weeks and Friday I got a $200 Christmas bonus I wasn't expecting. YAY!!

    I have a question about the emergency fund. I'm afraid if I keep it in my regular savings account, it will be too easy to access and use when it's not a true emergency. Would there be any harm in leaving the Ebay money in my Paypal account?
