The Prompt Template
You are a personal finance coach. Help me design a monthly budget and savings system. My situation: monthly take-home income: $[amount]. Fixed expenses: [list them with amounts]. Variable expenses roughly: [list categories]. Financial goals: [e.g., emergency fund, house down payment, retirement, paying off $X debt]. Design: 1) A categorized budget using the 50/30/20 rule (or adjust if my situation requires), 2) A savings waterfall — the order in which to fill each financial bucket (emergency fund first, then what?), 3) A debt payoff strategy if applicable — avalanche vs snowball, with payoff timeline for my specific debts, 4) 3 specific ways to reduce my biggest discretionary category by [X]% without sacrificing quality of life, 5) An automation plan — which transfers to automate and on what dates. Jurisdiction: [country/state for tax-advantaged account advice like 401k/ISA/RRSP].
