So, why don’t you have a joint account that jointly gets the paychecks (your
irregular one and his regular one) and jointly pays the bills? It don’t
sound like things are any too fair ….
And they are not “my bills” – they are “our bills.” Personal property taxes
need to be set aside a little bit each month – they are not a surprise. We
know they are coming all year and we know exactly when and pretty much the
amount. The medical deductible you know up front about…. that month also
gets set aside a little bit every month to make up next year’s amount. It
is not a surprise and should not catch you off guard. If you have a
household of glasses, new glasses are also not a surprise (catch a theme
here?)…. I pretty much know that three of us will need new glasses every
year and how much the insurance deductible is – same story….
This is where your savings comes in. No more bad months!!! No more feeling
like you have to do it all. You are on top of things.
