If you have plenty of
cash
lying around in a high-interest,
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
(FDIC)-insured
account
, not only will your
money
retain its
full
value
in times of
market
turmoil, it will also be extremely
liquid
, giving you easy
access
to funds if you lose your
job
or are forced to
take
a
pay
cut. Also, if you have your
own
cash, it won't be an
issue
if other sources of
backup
funds dry up, such as a
home equity line of credit
.
