That 3 years of cash on hand would be better off in some kind of investment and if you're worried, supported by a volatility buffer.

This illustrates why rich people are rich, and have an easier time getting richer. Even if they don't have time or aptitude to learn about this kind of thing, they have family or paid professionals to guide them.
