Calculate the remaining funds following your typical spending habits. This can be achieved by subtracting both your essential expenses, known as 'Hard Costs', and non-essential expenses, referred to as 'Soft Costs', from your income after taxes."

Examples:

Hard Costs include rent or mortgage payments, utilities, groceries, and transportation costs.

Soft Costs encompass discretionary spending like dining out, entertainment, hobbies, and non-essential subscriptions.
