Putting money into a 30-day account can also help, but obviously reduces your ability to react to emergencies (it does improve your definition of emergency, mind you). Just try to put a little away every time money comes in - it'll add up really quick. Then maybe next time you think you need to borrow money.. well.. you won't have to!
