I would also add that we have rarely spent our whole operating budget. It takes 
time to spend money and teams don't have time to finish everything that needs 
to be done.

Huge unexpected expenses so far have fallen under reserve funds -- Replacement, 
Maintenance (for things done very 2 or more years), and emergency ($10,000 
which we have rarely if ever used).
