Does the JKD has forms as Kung Fu? I went to a guy who teachs JKD but he doesn’t teach anything about forms which I consider essential in the martial arts.

Jeet kune do problems?
Ok, you see, I want to start jkd after about 3 years of taekwondo. I know it is a philosophy and not a style, but I am getting confused because people keep saying jkd can’t be taught because it is not a style.
So is it silly for me to start jeet kune do? If someone asks me which martial art I do, do I say “I study the philosophical aspects of all martial arts”, or can I just say “I do jkd”?
ps I also think that jkd HAS become a style, and it is impossible to prevent it since it is unlikely everybody will start studying martial arts philosophy.
pps Now that I think about it, shouldn’t I just be able to say “I do jkd” even if it is not a style? Since if jkd=philosophy or jkd=mma or whatever the modern meaning is, saying jkd is the same thing!
By the way, I was wondering, if Bruce Lee didn’t mean to make a system, then why did he give it a name?
Can I get some suggestions on martial arts scheduling?
Okay, here’s the deal. I have a passion for martial arts, and I never seem to have enough time to do all the training that I would like. I’ve always believed that it is important to be as well-rounded a martialist as I can be, which is why I want to study various types of stand-up fighting (currently taking Wing Chun, would also like to study jiu-jutsu, Kenpo, JKD, Escrima and other styles), become well-versed in grappling styles such as BJJ, and study the use of weapons, both traditional and modern. Ideally, besides these things I would like to take Tai Chi for better grace and balance, yoga for flexibility, Wushu for agility and acrobatics (I know it’s not super useful in most fights, but it’s fun and I still like to be as well-rounded as possible), and Muay Thai for body conditioning and basic fight experience (I have trouble shying away from punches). How do I find time in my entire life to study all that I want to and still have time for school, work, ministry, and family?
Two other things: 1) I’m dirt-poor. 
If I only had the money for it, I would find practitioners in every style I want to study and pay for private classes.
2) Before anyone mentions, I know that yoga isn’t a martial art. I just want to take regular classes for the sake of my martial arts training.
