Little stories. Big money lessons.

One charge, out loud.

A subscription feels small because it arrives alone. Type one. The year and the decade show up beside it.

Type an amount. The year and the decade show up here, then a 7% illustration of investing that monthly total instead.

Open the full worksheet

Six worksheets.

Each one runs in the browser. The result stays in the link, so you can send it.

Open the bench
  • Subscription cost

    Add each subscription and see the monthly total, the yearly bill, and what that money could become if it were invested instead.

  • Budget builder

    Split take-home pay into needs, wants, and savings. Start from 50/30/20, then move the percentages until they match your month.

  • Emergency fund

    Pick a number of months of essential costs, see the target, and how many contributions it takes from where you are now.

  • Debt payoff

    Compare smallest-balance-first with highest-rate-first, using your minimums and one extra payment.

  • Compound interest

    Project a starting amount plus a monthly deposit. Optionally add a small daily spend, as if that money were invested instead.

  • Savings goal

    Name a cost, what you have saved, and either a monthly amount or a date. The worksheet answers the question you did not type.

From Yehuda

I make short pixel films about money, and the worksheets on this site so you can run the numbers yourself. The films are the stories. The calculators are the part you can use tonight.

Nothing here is financial advice. It is a lesson you can poke at.
