Emergency Fund

Hello everyone,

I recently joined the group and read a lot of posts, did some research as well and I think I have a plan for myself (atleast for the next 4 months) which is to save for emergency funds which I never did.

My question is, I don't want the emergency fund to be in the form of cash or something deposited in the bank. Do you guys think buying Gold is the safe bet? Like I am not going to spend that fund unless I need to and there's a possibilty that the situation might not occur for a few years even.

Need some advice. Thank you.
