Good questions

Cash Planning, Answered

What is free, what is promised, and what is coming.

What is free cash?

Cash you can spend without touching your reserves or leaving a bill unpaid.

Why isn’t safe to spend just my bank balance?

Part of your balance is already promised: bills and loan payments before payday, the rest of this month’s budget, money set aside for goals, your emergency fund’s monthly top-up, and money you hold for others.

What if my salary comes on a different day?

Safe to spend runs until your next expected income, whatever day it lands. A long gap between two salaries is covered month by month. A bill due on a Friday or Saturday can move to the Thursday before or the Sunday after.

Does it include loans and installments?

Yes. Enter a loan as its payments: the amount, the next date and how many are left. Each payment is in the forecast, and Lightning shows when it is paid off.

Is the forecast a promise?

No, it is an estimate, and Lightning marks it as one. It carries your free cash forward with what is scheduled, so a quiet month and a heavy one look different before they arrive.

Where do the bills come from?

From what you add as bills, subscriptions and loans. Lightning also spots payments that repeat about monthly and offers to track them. Bills that repeat.
