Chapter 12: Debt
Use a short- or long-term sinking fund to set aside money for a future purchase. Create short-term savings for any immediate purpose such as an emergency fund, periodic savings for large, predictable expenses, and on-going savings to smooth out the impact on your net cashflow of known expenses that are unpredictable in both when they happen and how much they will cost.
Chapter 9: Using a Cashflow Spreadsheet
In PerNetFlow pseudo-bills look and act the same as bills. The difference is where the money goes. When you pay a bill the money goes to someone else. When you pay a pseudo-bill the money goes to you in a long-term savings or investment account.
Chapter 6: Household Finances
Update your debt-to-income ratio when asking to borrow as well as when playing "what if?" with a change to your cashflow that will affect your DTI ratio.
