Structured financial question

Primary intent: How to ask AI what to do with available cash

Turn “What should I do with this cash?” into an answerable case.

A useful answer depends on more than the amount available. The AI needs to understand when the money may be needed, which obligations compete for it, what must remain protected, and how the decision fits the rest of the household balance sheet.

Facts that can change the answer

  • When could the money be needed, and how flexible is that date?
  • How much emergency liquidity already exists?
  • Which debts, major expenses, or tax payments compete for the money?
  • What minimum amount must remain protected from market loss?
  • Could future income or contributions replenish the cash?

Safeguards to put in the prompt

  • Separate near-term liquidity from genuinely investable money.
  • Stress-test an income interruption or unexpected expense.
  • Compare debt repayment using the actual interest rate rather than a generic rule.
  • Avoid treating emotional risk tolerance as the same thing as financial loss capacity.

How to inspect the AI answer

  • Does the answer state which facts are known, missing, or assumed?
  • Does it compare more than one allocation rather than force a single number?
  • Does it show what would change the allocation later?
