You don't need an emergency fund. Put that into investments and if you need it just withdraw the money. 401k ain't that important. Match whatever your company allows and not a dollar more or less. You'll invest better than the limited mutual funds your company offers.
No you don't. Maybe 20 years ago but today you can get your money in a day or 2. Emergency funds are for retards.
