Is having about $4,000 in a checking account too much?

This is just a question. If not then what is the average that we should be saving.

I am not a financial counselor, but during times when most of the world ecomomies are uncertain, most of what I have read suggests saving 3 months expenses, including rent, car payments, food, insurance... it might seem a lot but it goes fast!

@Flowchart even $4000 or $10000
