Questions
Everything you need to know.
What if my lean month is $0 (no income at all)?
Then you need a larger buffer (6‑12 months). The plan will help you build that before relying on freelance income.
Do I really need to save 30% for taxes?
Yes for self‑employed income (federal + state + self‑employment tax). If you're a W‑2 employee, adjust lower.
How do I know my lean income?
Look at your last 6‑12 months of income. The lowest 2‑3 months = your lean baseline.
What if I get a big payment unexpectedly?
Apply the surplus allocation rules: tax first, buffer second, irregular third, fun fourth.
Can I use this if I have a side gig plus a day job?
Yes – treat the side gig income as irregular. Budget your day job income for fixed expenses, and use the system for the variable portion.
