Brian, Sorry if I've confused you. Bucket totals are used to show how much money you have to spend or allocate right now. They work like envelopes in the old manual method of cash flow management.
This means that if you just started using MoneyWell, it will start to track your spending as of the first of this month and any transactions prior to October won't show up in the current bucket total. Check out our video tutorials (http://nothirst.com/tutorials/) for a better explanation.
