INSPIRED BY "DIE WITH ZERO"

Plan your life,
not just your list.

A bucket list has no clock. Time Buckets splits the rest of your life into five-year stretches — so every dream gets a decade that can actually hold it.

"Someday" is not a date.

You won't hike Patagonia at 78, and you don't need to see it at 25. Some experiences belong to certain seasons of life — and those seasons close quietly. Putting a dream into a five-year bucket turns "someday" into a plan on purpose instead of by default.

How it works

1

See your whole life

Your years from now until your planned life expectancy, divided into five-year buckets across three seasons of energy.

2

Fill the buckets

Add goals with category, target age and cost — or browse curated suggestions. Drag items between buckets as life changes.

3

Live the plan

Track status from idea to done, watch progress per season, and check things off while the season is still open.

52 years left. What goes where?
