How Many Months Rich Are You?

How Many Months Rich Are You?
R. Buckminster Fuller, (he "invented" the geodesic dome and was a popular philosopher in the 1970s), had a thought-provoking way to measure wealth.

If you stopped working today, how long would your savings last to keep you living in your current lifestyle?
For example, let's say you have monthly expenses of $4,000 and a net worth (not counting your house) of $20,000. By Fuller's definition, you would be 5-months rich ($20,000 divided by $4,000).

Think about it... how long will your savings REALLY last you? Protect yourself and your family by saving MORE right now.
