The household rule

Visibility, ownership and planning inclusion are three different things.

A personal ISA can be legally Mike’s, visible to both partners and included in the shared retirement plan. Future private views can change visibility without rewriting ownership.

Annual values are projections from the current plan, not bank observations. Variable spending is intentionally excluded until enough real history exists.

One important distinction

Moving money is not spending it.

A transfer from the joint account to savings stays visible as “put aside”, but it will not also appear as an outgoing purchase.

Our household · Planning

Make space for what’s next.

Protect the important bits, note what’s coming, then explore one calm “What if?” at a time.

Emergency reserve

£15,000

Target £20,000 · £5,000 still to protect.

Protected across 2 existing cash accounts. It is not a separate balance.

One change at a time

Would the reserve still hold?

There are two honest outcomes

The reserve might hold—or might not.

A bounded commitment changes the answer, so both ends stay visible.

Whole-product review guide

Does this feel like one understandable financial life?

The broad modules are synthetic concepts. Position and bounded Planning are the implemented foundation; the rest exists so the product can be judged before another architecture gate.

Is this the right weekly briefing, or is anything essential missing?

Visit each world

Do Business, Property, Investments and Tax feel connected without becoming accounting software?

Do Goals, Planning and Timeline turn money into understandable life decisions?

WP-014 · honest release posture

The local candidate is ready for review—not real data.

The core joint-household journey now runs on web, iPhone and Android. External recovery, device, specialist and both-partner evidence still blocks the private pilot.

Local candidate

Joint record

Portable by design

A versioned household export keeps provenance while excluding credentials, internal security metadata and every other household.

Account access

Sessions stay understandable

Revoke this browser, phone or another session without exposing IP addresses, location or device fingerprints.

What if?

Safe to pause

Scenario evaluation can be disabled with a stable, gentle unavailable state. Existing results and their calculation lineage remain intact.

Web · iOS · Android

One shared financial language

Position, reserve, commitments and scenarios use the same versioned contracts while each client keeps platform-appropriate navigation and secure storage.

Current decision

No-go for real financial data—yet.

  • Hosted backup and isolated restore within the accepted RPO/RTO
  • Signed iPhone and Android critical-journey evidence
  • Security and accessibility specialist reviews
  • Two independent partner walkthroughs and named support ownership
