I haven't really counted how many we have. But like you, we have our home phone/internet/TV all on one bill. :) All I know is that we seem to have more money going out than coming in. But that is why I am here on mylot to make a little extra money.

Me too. Right now we are making ends meet a little too closely for our taste, and putting nothing in savings.

Amen to that. Interest rates go up, taxes go up... Our bank accounts go down!

We pay 19 bills every month. That includes our house, utilities, gas, and rent payments.

Not too bad. And for the next post, do you have separate bank accounts? Right now all our bills are paid by my husband's money, though I do the actual check-writing. I think I like the way that works out!

Let's see my income right now is $600 a month for 4 people. I need to pay rent, internet-phone, Car, gas for car, electric, and food. With 600 there is not much that gets paid. My main worry is electric and rent.And as logn as my kids eat that is really all that matters to me.

We have 10 bills to pay. Three for telephone and internet, bank loan, electricity bill, gas bill, Kitchen and laundry bill, gas, house rent and Newspaper. I never let these bills to grow for next month. Every 2nd to 5th of the month I clear all the bills, after then no tension for next 25 days.

I wonder why this post keeps making things repeat? Are others posts doing that? Even my responses have repeated.
