I mean, anything over about 1000 USD would be a big help, I had to make an unexpected visit to a sick parent that really set back my short term goals.
10k would be a nice emergency fund and I could start focusing again on things like moving to a better place (moving is expensive).
100k would mean freedom to get any transition-related surgeries I want without hassling with insurance. Or it could be rolled into a home purchase or retirement.
Currently my income isn't great, but I can pay my bills with savings to spare, even in a nicer apartment or home.
