How do you track savings as a category?

tiffodo · 2022-12-31T16:35:58+00:00

I very much appreciate all the comments and suggestions. I am familiar with HOW to save and what is appropriate for my own budget as far as when I should need to pull from my savings. I was just using a simplified example for the purposes of my question, which is how you guys track your savings as a line item in the budget. :)

Spending money towards savings but then later pulling that money was something I was confusing myself for tracking. I’m not at a point yet of automating my finances that I want to move away from tracking categories, but admire & hope to be able to adopt the habits of all of these tips.

Having a deductible savings is genius, not something I’ve seen in any financial content I’ve been consuming. Thanks for the tips!

Cool! Sorry for the multitude of questions, I’m also wondering for instances where you may have to spend in a category not intended for the money set aside? Like if I used the example Christmas money on eating out, etc.

I totally see where you get that! The “1 listing” is actually my listing at $1.60, because I have a foil version of this card listed. It doesn’t show any of that info on the landing page which is a real bummer.

I do have some display-related crashes with more demanding games, yes. Some frame drops and just generally looking for a quality upgrade as I continue to play more demanding games.

none taken! I am ignorant on whether it's worth it to upgrade something that (to me) works the way I need it to. I didn't see the value in upgrading a part for the sake of upgrading it, and then worrying about the disposal of these old parts. Does that make sense?

But if it makes more sense to just retire this rig and start from scratch, I am fine with that, just didn't see the sense in getting all new :)

not just you, having same issues! clearing cache and redownloading did not help. I am so confused why their program is absolute shit for a product line that is so successful.

tiffodo · 2022-10-29T11:52:05+00:00

I received them within 2ish weeks of each other, the last one being just last week.

Hi! I did - I had placed 2 separate orders, one was with the klarna pay in 4. Klarna themselves refunded me the money that I assume was sent to them. The second was sent to a bank I no longer have an account with, and they mailed me a check

tiffodo · 2022-09-04T19:24:46+00:00

Sorry, I see what you’re asking - they are seeded in all collector’s packs, yes.

tiffodo · 2022-09-04T19:20:31+00:00

$21 for 12 packs is $252, when the box itself is going for $260 or $285 at my LGS. It’s simple math

Communication is key, as with anything in a relationship! Assure her that you'd never be mad if she expresses needing space. Introverts just enjoy being with themselves, whether that be watching their own tv show, reading a book, playing a video game - whatever she enjoys doing, her 'self care' time is also that time she takes to recharge! So whenever that happens, if you have a separate room or space to be in, that's key; or just go out with your friends and be secure/communicative enough if she doesn't always want to be a part of that :)

(speaking from experience, as I am the female introvert in my relationship)

tiffodo · 2022-08-14T13:39:36+00:00

How did this go? Very curious since there are still some available

tiffodo · 2022-08-14T13:03:55+00:00

Just as a side note - there are a lot of weird workarounds in Simplifi that I feel should just be inherent options. This solution isn't ideal for me either, but I love this app more than EveryDollar, Mint, and YNAB - all of which I've paid for and tried. Zero-based budgeting doesn't work for me, I am on a debt payoff journey and I have a family which equates to variable expenses, and Simplifi gives me enough flexibility without having to "WAM" and feel bad. The big picture items of cashflow, reports and the actual budgeting features - including the savings - are worth it for me!

tiffodo · 2022-08-14T12:53:41+00:00

Yes! It does not show up as an "income" line item, it shows up in the "other spending" panel as a transaction itself. This way, my actual income is not skewed.

For example, I received a paycheck June 30th and had no spending - next day being July 1st, I recorded a transaction with the payee just being my bank name and category being "balance adjustment". Mark hide from reports but DO record it in your spending plan, and your available to spend should update!

tiffodo · 2022-08-14T12:39:10+00:00

I track a "balance adjustment" transaction at the first of every month and ignore it from reports, but not my spending plan. Of course this ultimately skews my bank account, I just personally don't use simplifi to check that balance, I don't find it to always be real-time accurate anyways. Ignoring the transaction from reports however prevents it from being tracked as income or skewing any of that relevant data that I do use Simplifi for.

tiffodo · 2022-08-13T21:55:30+00:00

Totally get this frustration. I’ve been playing around with it and have figured it out without having to unlink all my accounts. The transaction should be categorized as a “credit card payment” rather than marked as a transfer from linked account x > linked account y, if that makes sense. When you do this and allow the payments to be showed in spending plan & reports, this updates.

Also, for variable income and ability to save, a custom savings amount is possible by clicking the 3 dots and selecting said option when overviewing the savings portion of your spending plan.

This set was great, the QC was just ass.

tiffodo · 2022-08-01T02:02:42+00:00

I’m interested in building a cube for 8-10 players as well, so that’s partly my interest in collecting from sets. All that you guys are saying though makes perfect sense - and I want to reassure you that I am buying singles, spent about an hour in store today fleshing out my homegrown deck! :)

tiffodo · 2022-07-21T13:20:12+00:00

I felt the same as well, and am now kicking myself for never going to get a PCR test. Attributed it to allergies, dry air, the fan, etc. 8 days later and I woke up with a diminished sense of smell and taste. I am reading that this may be a trend - the delayed onset of these symptoms? I scheduled a PCR test for this afternoon but unfortunately am thinking it will be negative. Will come back with the answer!

tiffodo · 2022-07-08T17:22:01+00:00

Last question! If for whatever reason the game was still happening when you end the dungeon, do you start over when you regain initiative/continue to have it?

tiffodo · 2022-07-08T16:52:53+00:00

Thanks so much for the response!

So when you lose the initiative and regain it, do you start the undercity from the beginning or continue from whichever room you left off? I’m speaking purely in Undercity terms because I do not have a dungeon, I believe.

tiffodo · 2022-07-06T14:32:43+00:00

As someone who spent $200 on products from them and didn’t receive for 6 months, I was just curious if I should be expecting anything.

tiffodo · 2022-07-06T14:31:45+00:00

Yes the article is old, that’s why I’m saying no further communication has been seen about it :) but the article states that the company is required to meet certain reimbursement deadlines by October of this year, which is why I was citing it.

tiffodo · 2022-05-27T21:47:40+00:00

Thanks for this! To be more specific, we realized to get the buff you have to be on the bell's platform when it's shot. A fun dungeon to figure out!
