No it's so that when shit goes wrong or a rainy day comes, broke down car, traffic tickets, lose your job etc. etc. You don't put a whole lot of stuff on on credit cards. Or take out loans and what not that will take you a long ass time to pay off........

Do it yourself. I wouldn't pay anyone to give you advice. Smart investing is really just setting a budget for your investments and expenditures. The first step is tracking what you spend money on. I would just ask questions on this board. That Ramsey guy's webpage linked above looks pretty good. Suze Orman has some books out aimed for women but there very good in terms of basics. Everything she spits is common knowledge IMO, but it is mostly great advice.
