## Taxable vs non-taxable confusion.

We split the three kinds of money on sight, so the plan is built on what's real, not on gross.

## TSP on autopilot.

Your match, your percent, and one concrete move with the math shown in dollars per check.

## PCS moves that reset the budget.

New ZIP, new BAH, new plan: re-snap once and the whole picture updates.

## How it works

1. Snap your stub.
2. We read it and tell you what it says.
3. Goals and retirement.
4. If you'd like, link your accounts and see where your real spending pulls away from your plan.

- We ask you to keep your member name, SSN, and street address outside the crop. The uploaded image is stored transiently while it is read, then deleted when the read completes, in all cases within approximately one hour.
- We never move your money. And we never sell your data. If you link accounts later, it is read-only.
- Educational, not investment advice. We organize your check and your plan. We do not manage investments.
