How this money leak estimate works
The calculator adds the monthly recurring costs you enter to 4.345 weeks of flexible spending, then multiplies that monthly estimate by 12. It does not label every expense as waste. It shows the amount you chose to review so you can decide what still provides value.
- Use only costs you genuinely want to inspect.
- Annual results assume the same pattern continues for 12 months.
- Actual savings depend on the actions you choose and are not guaranteed.
What to review first
Start with the easiest recurring cost to verify: a subscription you no longer use, a duplicate service, a membership, or a fee you can avoid. One confirmed change is more useful than an aggressive estimate with no follow-through.
