Accounts

Accounts are where your money actually lives. Each type behaves a little differently - what it does to your budget, your net worth, and what you're expected to enter. Here's the whole set.

Managing accounts

Add an account three ways, understand what each type asks you for, and close or delete one when you are done with it.

Bank-linked accounts

How a connected bank account syncs, what the bank owns versus what you own, and how to reconnect or disconnect.

Cash accounts

Checking, savings, and physical cash - the accounts your budget spends from, and how reconciling works.

Credit cards

A picture-by-picture guide to card spending, covering overspending, setting money aside, and paying the card.

Loan accounts

Loans and mortgages - lump debts you pay down over time, and why they behave differently from a credit card.

Investment accounts

Brokerage, retirement, HSA, and crypto accounts - cash plus holdings, priced automatically and kept out of the budget.

Steam accounts

Track a CS2 inventory as a speculative collectible account - synced or by hand, priced from the market you choose.
