Hey everyone,

As someone who currently doesn’t have 3 months of living expenses saved up, and don’t have too much spare cash each month to play around with given London’s crazy cost of living, is it worth still investing some money even if it’s just a small amount?

Or should I simply focus on growing my emergency fund first?

Sometimes I feel like I’m missing out so I’m not sure what to do?
