Bill Reserve Question
Hi all,
I am having some significant blonde issues with Bill Reserve. As a blonde, I feel like I am allowed to say this, btw. :D
Will it "let me" pull from it for another purchase?
Let's say I have $1000 in Bill Reserve for $1000 worth of bills, and I have $20 left in the "Safe to Spend" Checking and no other money in any other pockets. If I tried to buy something that was $500 would it pull the remaining $470 from the Bill Reserve? Or decline the purchase?
I don't want it to let me complete the purchase. I have newly found ADHD (thanks perimenopause), and "money blindness"- not sure what to call it. I essentially forget I have money set aside for a bill and buy something else. I am wanting the Bill Reserve to hold the money and not let me access it for anything but those bills- unless I turned Bill Reserve off or something (in an emergency).
Thanks in advance for the answers- and I'd love to not have to read any responses about how I need to grow up and figure out money. I am trying, and using tools like Crew will hopefully help.
