OP, you have given us only one piece of information (how much you have saved) out of a necessary 20 data points or so and you expect quality advice? Impossible. @nolite said "3 months rent + unemployment" but is that really valid? No, it isn't. His/her advice is predicated on the idea that you will start making enough money within 3 months to cover your expenses. We have no clue what your business is, how much you expect to make, what your model is, etc. There is no way any of us can offer help without knowing that information as well.
Your question is a fine question to ask but, unless you provide more context, there is no way that nearly anyone with experience will want to spend the time working through all the possible data points.
