Bills

"For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin -- real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way. Something to be got through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life." -- Fr. Alfred D'Souza

I wonder, on this sunny Tuesday, which of the readers of this website have figured out how to manage their family money? It is an increasingly frustrating issue in mine. Which of the bills do I pay? Which does my wife pay? One of us typically takes it over until that one gets too busy with whatever, and then the other attempts to help too late, and here come the late charges. Its incredibly frustrating to pay extra for things just because you lost the bill to it and forgot to pay it on time. Fortunately automatic payments have alleviated the pain, but only partially. Some businesses I’m convinced WANT you to be late so you pay them extra.

Where to channel this enormous frustration!?! AHHH! DANG POOP! @#$%
