Thanks, Kevin. That's a helpful reply. Do you have a suggestion for how to evenly distribute the interest paid on a savings account to the different savings goals that one has? For example, if I am putting money into my savings account and it is going towards three or four future purchases, whe

Hi Brian, Then what you are probably seeing is the difference between an account total, which is from the first transaction to the last transaction, and a bucket total, which only shows you how much you have for the current month. Is it possible that the amount in your bucket is spread ac
