This market resolves Yes if the following criteria are met. If the below criteria are not met, it resolves No.

Criteria:

1. Define a detailed budget that outlines expected income, fixed expenses (e.g., rent, utilities, subscriptions), variable expenses (e.g., groceries, leisure activities), and savings goals before 04MAR2024.

2. The budget is actively used for tracking expenses and income. Active is defined I look at it/update it least 5 out of 7 days a week for at least 7 of the 8 weeks following the creation of the budget.

General Information:

• I define a week as Monday through Sunday.

• I use Pacific Time.

I expect tracking of budget use is to be recorded by commenting as such (or editing an existing comment) each day.

Notes:

• I reserve the right to record it in an easier (but still contemporaneous and publicly accessible) format (e.g., I might make a Google sheet that tracks all of my personal goals, so I don't have to navigate to and comment on a large number of markets). Changing the recording format does not alter the record for any prior days.

• I reserve the right to modify the resolution criteria above, provided that any changes adhere to the spirit of the market (e.g., am I actively and effectively using a budget to manage my finances?). Any modifications to the criteria will not affect records for any prior days.

• Should I alter the resolution criteria or bet in this market (which I plan to do), anyone who has wagered more than 3% of their net worth (at the time of resolution) or Ṁ1000 has the right to request a moderator re-resolution, assuming the request is made in good faith.
