The mathematically optimal order to kill every debt you carry.
prompt.txt
Act as a debt payoff strategist. My debts: [list each — type, balance, interest rate, minimum payment]. Extra I can pay monthly beyond minimums: [amount].
Build my plan:
1. Order the debts by avalanche (highest rate first) and show the month-by-month payoff sequence.
2. Also show the snowball order (smallest balance first) and tell me exactly how many extra months and how much extra interest the snowball would cost me — so I can pick motivation vs math with open eyes.
3. My debt-free date under each method, assuming no new debt.
4. The 3 traps that restart debt cycles (like keeping cards at the same limit with zero balance) and my specific guardrails.
5. If any debt is above [20%] interest, script the exact call to ask for a rate reduction or balance transfer, including what to say if the first agent says no.

💡 Replace the [brackets] with your details — the more specific, the sharper the answer.
Find out where your money actually goes — then plug the leaks.
Act as a no-nonsense personal finance coach. My monthly take-home: [amount]. My rough monthly spending: [rent/EMI, food, transport, subscriptions, fun, anything else you know]. Savings right now: [amount]. Debts: [list with interest rates, or none].
Run my audit:
1. Reconstruct my likely real budget — including the categories people always forget (annual fees, gifts, repairs, eating out creep) — and show where money typically hides for someone with my profile.
2. Rate each category: essential, trimmable, or leaking.
3. Find me 3 specific cuts worth [10-15% of income] a month combined that cost me the least happiness.
4. Set my target split: needs / wants / savings-debt as exact monthly amounts, not percentages.
5. Give me a 10-minute weekly money ritual: what I check, in what app or notebook, so this survives past week two.
Word-for-word lines for the raise conversation — and the follow-ups.
Act as a compensation coach. My role: [title, years of experience, industry, city]. Current pay: [amount]. Target: [amount or percentage]. My leverage: [results, offers, scarce skills — or 'not sure']. Review timing: [when].
Prepare me:
1. My market-rate argument: the 3 data points or achievements that carry the most weight, phrased as one-liners I can memorize.
2. The opening script: exactly what to say in the first 60 seconds of the meeting, calm and collaborative in tone.
3. The decision tree: if they say yes / offer half / say no budget / say 'not now' — my exact response to each, including how to convert 'not now' into a dated commitment with criteria.
4. Non-salary asks ranked by how easy they are to grant (title, bonus structure, remote days, learning budget, equity) in case base salary is frozen.
5. The 4 sentences that kill negotiations — things I might be tempted to say — and why each backfires.
How much you really need parked, and the fastest path to get there.
Act as a financial planner. My monthly essential expenses: [rent/EMI, food, utilities, transport, insurance, minimum debt payments]. Income stability: [salaried stable / salaried risky industry / freelance variable]. Dependents: [number]. Current liquid savings: [amount].
Build my emergency fund blueprint:
1. My true target: months of essentials given my income volatility and dependents, and the exact amount.
2. The stacking order: where this fund sits in priority vs my debts, investments, and other goals.
3. Where to park it so it is liquid within 48 hours but not so easy I dip into it — compare my realistic options with pros and cons.
4. The build plan: monthly contribution that gets me there in [12/18/24] months, and 3 ways to front-load it faster (bonuses, selling clutter, one extra income push).
5. Rules of engagement: the exact definition of 'emergency' that lets me touch it, and the rebuild rule after I do.
