# Expense Audit Skill Money leaks quietly — forgotten subscriptions, lifestyle creep, small daily costs that annualize into a lot. This skill audits someone's spending, surfaces the **leaks ranked by annual impact**, and proposes specific cuts with dollar amounts — so they free up cash without a vague "spend less". Educational, not personalized financial advice. ## Required Inputs Ask for these only if they aren't already provided: - **Spending data** — a list of expenses or transactions (paste what they have: statements, a rough list, categories + amounts). - **Which are recurring** — subscriptions and memberships, with frequency. - **What's off-limits** (optional) — costs they won't cut (and why), so suggestions stay realistic. - **Goal** (optional) — a target amount to free up. ## Output Format ### Expense audit — [name] **Where the money goes** | Category | Monthly | % of spend | Annualized | |---|---|---|---| | | $ | % | $ | **🔁 Recurring / subscriptions** — every recurring charge found, with monthly + annual cost, and a verdict (keep / downgrade / cancel / negotiate). Flag duplicates and "haven't used it" candidates. **✂️ Ranked cuts** — the highest-impact opportunities firs
