The AI's budget

Here's a simple plan for your month. Your monthly income is $2,000. After rent of $700, you have $1,500 left. School fees take $150 a month.

Food is planned at $250 a month. You are already saving $300 a month, which is a good start. That leaves $600 a month for transport, bills and extras.

Try to move the savings on payday, so they don't get spent. Keep your receipts for one month to see where the money goes.

What you told the AI

Monthly income: $2,000
Rent: $700
School fees: $150 a month
Food: about $400 a month
Savings goal: $200 a month (not saving yet)
