I spent years wanting to budget. Categories, limits, tracking every purchase. It never stuck because it always felt like I was grading myself after the fact. And so time consuming!
What actually changed my finances was a simple question: what does my bank balance look like 10 days from now? Not where my money went. Where it's going.
Hey Product Hunt! I'm Brandon. A former accountant, solo developer. After my divorce, my finances got tight fast. I tried every budgeting app out there and they all did the same thing. They showed me where my money went last month and that I needed to restrict myself. None of them could answer the one question I actually had: am I going to be okay next week?
So I built a cash flow forecast in Google Sheets. I entered my bills, my income, and my current balance, and it showed me my projected balance for every day over the next 60 days. I used it for almost a year. It completely changed how I planned my money. Not by restricting spending, but by showing me what was coming.
I turned it into NXT60. No bank login, no account creation, no cloud, no subscription. You just enter your stuff and it forecasts. It also has a full debt amortization calculator and a What-If mode to test financial decisions before you commit.
