How much is your weekly expenses?
I added everything up and my total expenses every week is $800 (or $3200 a month). This includes mortgage, insurance, internet, phone, food and everything not including tax. This doesnt include my 401k and stock investments.
I decided to automatically have my account pull out $800 and put it in a seperate checking account that automatically pays the bills. After whats left of the money for the week I do as wanted.
