Prompt

Facilitate a financial goal-setting workshop to help me define and prioritize my money goals.

About me:
- Age: [AGE]
- Annual income: [AMOUNT]
- Life stage: [SINGLE / MARRIED / KIDS / EMPTY NESTER / PRE-RETIREMENT]
- Current financial situation summary: [BRIEF DESCRIPTION]
- What financial stress feels like for me: [DESCRIBE]
- What financial freedom would look like: [YOUR VISION]
- Time horizon I'm planning for: [SHORT-TERM / LONG-TERM / BOTH]

Facilitate:

1. **Values Clarification** — 10 questions to help me identify what money is actually for in my life (security, freedom, experiences, legacy, status — be honest).

2. **Goal Inventory** — Help me brainstorm ALL possible financial goals across: short-term (1 year), medium-term (1-5 years), and long-term (5+ years).

3. **Goal Prioritization Matrix** — Score each goal on: importance, urgency, and feasibility. Which rises to the top?

4. **SMART Goal Conversion** — For my top 3 goals, rewrite them as specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, time-bound goals.

5. **Monthly Savings Allocation** — Given my income and expenses, how much can realistically be directed toward each goal per month?

6. **Trade-Off Acknowledgment** — What do I give up to fund these goals? Be explicit — pretending there are no trade-offs leads to failure.

7. **Progress Tracking** — Simple system for monitoring progress toward each goal monthly.

8. **Annual Review Prompt** — What questions to ask myself each year to evaluate if goals still reflect my values.
