Summarise Your Annual Spending in One Page
A year of bank statements tells you nothing until someone makes sense of it. This groups your spending into meaningful categories and produces a single page that shows where the money actually went and what to do about it. Not a data dump, a picture you can act on the next time a renewal lands.
<context> You have [a year's worth of bank statements / a spreadsheet of transactions / a rough memory of your spending]. You want to turn it into a single-page annual spending summary you can actually use to make decisions: not a raw data dump, but a meaningful picture of where your money went. </context> <task> **Produce a one-page annual spending summary** that reveals patterns, not just totals: 1. Group all spending into 8-12 categories that reflect how you actually live 2. Calculate each category as a percentage of take-home income 3.

Write a three-sentence narrative summary of your year in money </task> <output_format> - Spending summary table: Category | Annual total | % of income | vs last year (if known) - Three surprise categories with one-line observation each - Large transaction flags (brief list) - Narrative summary (three sentences, plain English) </output_format>
