pip install mpd-tpd
mpd-tpd --next_payday '2024-07-31' \
--money_remaining '2806.45' \
--fixed_expenses '1269.00' \
--currency_format '£x'
You have 9 days left (excluding today) until payday (Wednesday 2024-07-31).
You have £2,806.45 left to spend and £1,269.00 still to pay in fixed expenses before then.
This means that you have £1,537.45 = (£2,806.45 - £1,269.00) in total to spend until payday.
i.e. you can spend £170.83 per day until you will be paid again.

Command-line tool for helping conceptualise how much money is left until payday
Examples:
$ mpd-tpd --next_payday '2024-07-24' --money_remaining 100
# if you still intend to spend money today, then include flag '--include_today':
$ mpd-tpd --next_payday '2024-07-24' --money_remaining 99.99 --include_today
# if you have known compulsory bills which you want pre-removed before doing the calculation, use parameter '--fixed_expenses':
$ mpd-tpd --next_payday '2024-08-01' --money_remaining 80000 --fixed_expenses 25000
# you can explicitly name your fixed expenses if you want to #
$ mpd-tpd --next_payday '2024-08-01' --money_remaining 80000 --named_fixed_expenses 'home loan=19500.39,pay off credit card=351.16,netflix=5.41'
# if you want the numbers formatted with a specific currency, specify the format
# using parameter '--currency_format'
$ mpd-tpd --next_payday '2024-07-24' --money_remaining 50 --currency_format '£x'
$ mpd-tpd --next_payday '2024-07-24' --money_remaining 99999 --currency_format 'x GBP'
