how much in cash equivalents should i keep in the bank? [duplicate]

in personal finance circles this is called an emergency fund. there are many opinions about how big it needs to be but most seem to come in around 3-6 months worth of your average expenses. any more than that and you're going to loose money to inflation, less and you will start having problems if you get laid off or have a medical issue.
