Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 50/30/20 budget rule?

The 50/30/20 rule is a simple financial budgeting guideline: spend 50% of your income on Needs (housing, groceries, bills), 30% on Wants (dining, hobbies, subscriptions), and allocate 20% to Savings, investments, or debt reduction.

Is my financial data uploaded to any server?

No, never. This tool runs entirely locally in your web browser. No financial data is ever collected, tracked, or sent online.

How does the savings compounder calculate growth?

It uses the compound interest formula: A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt) + PMT * [((1 + r/n)^(nt) - 1) / (r/n)] * (1 + r/n). This calculates monthly compounding deposits over your chosen term.

Can I customize the budget categories?

Yes, you can slide the percentages to any custom ratio you prefer. The interactive donut chart will automatically update in real-time.
