So basically I should divide them into monthly costs to make the calculation? Hm, the calculation is still somewhat strange...

So we could calculate a rational time needed to manage with the goals. E.g. I have one of the goals to go to training and other to write a book, these two take a lot of time. So I would like to calculate how much time I need for that and how much time is left for work for example. All the best, Liisi Toom I started to do the old dreamline I had saved some time ago, but came up with the same problems (monthly vs one time cost) but was glad to find it was solved long ago :)

Why not add a new column- maybe on the right side of each row, just as "Star" sits along the left- that's for "one-time expense?" If we click "yes," then the formula can divide the total cost by the number in field "In X months I dream of..." to come up with the accurate TMI. Other than that, am loving it- very exciting to start thinking and planning this way! Hi guys,
