As much as humanly possible is the correct answer.

Don't forget that you can take back your Roth contributions without any penalty, there's really no need for a "rainy day" fund.

I would rather treat my ability to withdraw from a Roth as a "HOLY frick EVERYTHING IS GOING TO HELL IN MY LIFE" fund and use a taxable account fund for rainy days.

Unless there is some way you can backdoor borrow and put back I don't know about. A Roth's biggest weakness is the limit you can put in.

I dont want to take out till my contributions are a small percentage of total value anyway.
