• Save for an emergency
— According to the Federal Reserve, more than 40 percent of Americans don’t have $400 in savings. It’s important to be financially prepared for any type of disaster. Disasters can be very stressful, but having access to personal, financial, medical and other records is crucial to a quick recovery.
Consider saving money and storing it in an emergen- cy savings account, as well as keeping some cash at home in a safe place. If a disaster strikes, ATMs and credit card machines may stop working, leaving cash as the only option.
• Safely store information — You also should gather all financial and critical personal, household and medical infor- mation and store it in a safe, yet easily accessible place.
It’s important to also ob- tain property, health and life insurance, and review exist- ing policies for the amount and extent of coverage to ensure that what you have in place is enough for your family.
