Build a Weekly Financial Snapshot Dashboard
You want to keep an eye on your money but not spend Sunday night buried in a spreadsheet. This designs a one-page weekly financial snapshot: the five to seven numbers that actually tell you how things stand, where each comes from, and how to read them fast. Ten minutes a week, in whatever tool you already use, and you know where you are.

<task>
**Design a one-page weekly financial snapshot:**
1. Identify the 5-7 metrics that give an accurate picture of financial health in under 10 minutes
2. Specify how each metric should be sourced and calculated
3. Define a traffic-light status for each metric: green, amber, red thresholds
**Adapt the design to the tool:**
4. Lay out how to build this in {TRACKING_TOOL}
5. Describe a weekly capture ritual: when to update it and how long it should take
6. Add one forward-looking metric that shows where the next 4 weeks are heading
If the tool lacks a feature needed, suggest the simplest workaround.
