I feel im above average at money management, sometimes I reinvest too much into my business though. Right now im working on building up a larger emergency fund before investing too much more into business.

Why?

Well its smart to have a 6 month emergency fund anyway, but if your in business for yourself your business needs its own (especially if you have employees) emergency fund aswell. Especially those of us that are pretty dependent on search engine traffic. It can all go away very quickly and leave you with a big dent in your income.
I agree 100%. I think it's always important to have a base (or emergency fund). Things can change quickly in business. You don't want to be left empty handed.
