I recently changed jobs and went from being paid by bank draft monthly to being paid cash weekly. I was feeling a bit lost until I saw your blog on Pinterest. This method is simple and it works. I feel so much in control now and even though money is a bit tight, it's a relief to look ahead and know I'll be okay. I've messed about with so many apps and methods in the past to track and plan my budget, now I know I have found the only method I need.

When you get your monthly paycheck, put half into the other "holding" account and don't touch it. Two weeks later, transfer that money into your regular operating account and you've just created a bi-weekly pay schedule. It won't quite jive since months are not actually four weeks long exactly, but it would split it up into smaller chunks of time, a little easier to manage perhaps. There are a lot of free checking account options out there at most banks these days and online banking makes transfers super easy. Just an idea!

I know you set this system up for those who get paid more than once a month, but I think this will work great for me, as well. I love the idea of giving every dollar a name. This is what I am going to strive to do. Keep posting more tips! I've spent the day going through your blog and I really appreciate the detail you go into. I know it makes for long posts, but it's good stuff! Thanks!Angela Kochheiserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14183758258337562200noreply@blogger.com
