Income Lab
The income conversation, honestly. Enter the mix, the balance, and each fund’s stated distribution yield — the Lab does the projection and the part nobody else shows: how much of a high “yield” the fund’s own price gave back over the year.
Yields are advisor-entered from fund documents · price history is primary data · automatic distribution feeds light up when the data tier unlocks
