Reply to comment by TyrconnellFL in Question about reserving money for short-term goals by Sunset_Bleu

Thanks for your advice. I know now how much I need to save. I think it would be a good idea to open a separate bank account and just dump the money there. I guess what I really want is to be able to see in the account goal x has 200, goal y has 300, but it sounds like that probably won't be easy to do. I could get around that by tracking manually on a spreadsheet.

Several banks have features that let you subdivide the account for record-keeping with names like bins, vaults, buckets, or pods. Just open one account that can do that.
