Really doesn't work with my life. Extreme, sudden expenses, such as a 6k health insurance debt, hit me with as much surprise as a sudden project that pays 20k within 20 days. I just got to roll with it and hope it stays in the + somehow.
It only helps, there's not a downside other than seeing the objective truth of where things ended that month. Its more of a north star type thing
If I meet the amount, i succeeded and I get to save any excess and actually keep it more or less
If I dont, it comes out of savings so i dont get behind which is absolutely killer when I get in that cycle
Definitely a good approach, maybe for people like ourselves even more so. But for it to work with my chaotic finances, I'd probably need a business account and pay myself a regular wage. If I'd do things in such an orderly fashion, I'd probably not be here in the first place, and we'd never have met :-)
