A quick note before you begin

This tool works best if you start with honesty, not perfection.

Your goal here is not to predict every future expense. It’s to separate your real-life baseline from your travel overlay so you can see the month more clearly.

What felt hardest:

  • baseline
  • overlay
  • reality check
