Give me a short checklist for comparing loan offers. I want something I can run before I call the work done.
comparing loan offers, minus the vague advice
Not magic wording, just enough context and a clear definition of done. Easy to adapt.
Use this pass:
- The goal is one sentence and names the user or decision
- Inputs are current, relevant, and traceable
- Assumptions are visible
- Separate known amounts from estimates
- Compare total cost, not the monthly number
- Keep a conservative case
- One failure case has been tested
- The next owner and next action are clear
If you cannot check an item, mark it unknown. Do not quietly treat unknown as done.
Saving this. The unknown-versus-done line catches most of my shortcuts.
