Common questions
Is this my real loss number?
It's an estimate built from the weekly figure you typed — nothing more. Real gambling spend swings week to week, which is exactly why watching it over time tells you more than any single number.
Does the 'set aside' line assume investing?
It shows what weekly deposits grow to at the rate you set (4% by default, editable) — a plain compound-growth estimate, not financial advice.
