Type in the basics: what comes in, what goes out, what you own, what you owe. Code turns them into an order of operations: what to fix first, what can wait, and how far along you are.
No human looks at it. That is the point and the limit. It is rules of thumb with your numbers plugged in, the same order I would start with on a whiteboard.
Three numbers and the first three moves. Numbers argue better when they are drawn.
Where should I send your plan? You'll also get Field Notes, about once a month, and now and then a note on working together. Unsubscribe in one click.
Eight steps, always the same order. The code skipped the ones that look handled and put the rest in line. Start at the red one.
Published rules of thumb with your numbers plugged in. Check what you already have through work before buying anything.

The napkin shows the order. A person helps you keep it.
