Brief

Brett_finance says he built a daily cashflow tracker for a law‑firm friend to 'put him back in the driver's seat.' He cites Charles Miller's stress test: $2,000 in the bank, $35,000 payroll due tonight, $350,000 in‑flight checks with unknown timing — a scenario repeated weekly — to show why real‑time cash visibility matters.

Why it matters

@brett_finance built a daily cashflow tracker for a law‑firm friend to “put him back in the driver seat” of liquidity management.

Key details

  • Charles Miller’s test scenario: $2,000 in the bank, $35,000 payroll due tonight, and $350,000 of in‑flight checks with unknown arrival timing — a situation repeated weekly.
  • Author’s point: business is hard but real‑time tools can make cashflow management manageable.

I have a law firm friend who was going through this.

Built him a daily cashflow tracker to put him back of the driver seat.

Business is hard but there are tools to make it manageable.

If you’re interested in ETA, test this scenario:

  • $2k in the bank account
  • $35k payroll due tonight
  • $350k of “in flight checks” but you have no idea when any of it will arrive (days vs weeks)

Then think about your plan when you face the team when/if payroll is delayed at 8am.

Now repeat an equivalent scenario at least once a week for years of your life.

If you’re still up for it, then welcome 👋
