LAB
Every account is a flask
Glass flasks with a meniscus that rises and falls. Click two pots
to move money between them — coins and bills fly through brass
tubes, settle into the destination, the level lifts. The chemistry
metaphor is literal: a manifold mixes, sub-funnels route to bill
stacks below.
SPLITS
Wire bills to paychecks
RENT half on SALARY 1st, half on the 15th. UTILITIES off the
FREELANCE invoice. When a paycheck lands, the splits drain in
order — capped at what each pocket can spare. No ledger-keeping
by hand, no math in your head at month-end.
MIXER
Or flip it to a console
Same data, audio-mixer layout. Channel strips with 16-segment
LED ladders for each account. Bill pedals stack on three send
racks below. A master compressor up top routes leftover
headroom into your debt target — avalanche or snowball. One
click in the header to toggle.
TRANSPORT
Press play on twelve months
The sim clock is a tape transport. +1 DAY, +1 WEEK, +1 MONTH
walk the simulation forward. RUN 12 MONTHS fast-forwards a
year — paychecks fire on their dates, interest accrues
daily, strategy extra hammers debt. The report drops as a
CSV + HTML zip the moment the run finishes.
