Negative buffering days ! What does it mean?
Hi, please can someone explain to me what it means to have negative buffering days on your budget page? A couple of day ago i had 15 day showing on my age of money and now i see -13.9 buffering days. i don't understand what this mean and how it jumped for 15 days age of money to -13.9 days of buffering.
Thanks

Thank you Vibrant and nolesrule for once again attempting to help me understand Age of Money (AoM) and Days of Buffering (DoB from toolkit). I tried, many times, to understand them, and have basically given up. I find them entertaining, and work with them, in my way, but have accepted that I will never understand them, and that's okay with me. I don't try any longer because they make my head spin, like now.
Now to go lie down until the room stops spinning. 🤯. One day I will actually stop attempting to understand those numbers but today was not the day. I tried once again and ended up in the same place I always end up.🥴
Beige Chef Sorry, I didn't intend to hijack your question. Did Vibrant's or Nolesule's post help any? For me, I just accept what is given and work to increase it, by increasing the money in my budget. That has saved me lots of dizziness.

I think I do understand both AOM and DOB now. But knowing were we are financially doesn’t stem from those numbers at all, and that’s allright. AOM money is just this insignificant entertaining number in the corner. Is has only been going up since I started YNAB. When is does go down one day I understand I spent all the money I had on budget the day I started YNAB. Luckily more came in after that.
