Roughly three quarters of Americans are living paycheck-to-paycheck.

A new survey found that fewer than one in four Americans have enough money in their savings account to cover at least 6 months of expenses.

About half of those surveyed have less than a 3-month cushion and 27 % have no savings at all.
