Education
Understand the decision, then use the tool
FinanceAvatar guides will explain common U.S. money decisions in plain language, then connect you to a calculator when numbers would help. Articles will be added over time. We are not publishing a large library of thin pages first.
How guides will work
The product idea is simple: start with a tool, see a result, read what that result means, then move to a related tool if you need a fuller picture. Guides will support that path. They will describe concepts, assumptions, and tradeoffs. They will not tell you what to buy, borrow, or invest in.

Individual articles are not published yet
When a guide is published, it will have a clear purpose, cite authoritative U.S. sources when rules or public programs are discussed, and distinguish estimates from advice. Until then, the calculator directory, methodology, and sources pages explain how FinanceAvatar approaches educational content.
