Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
This month has been an above-average spending month with lots of one time purchases being made. It made me think about the fact that I don't have to worry about bills hitting all at the same time. In fact, I can't really remember a period where I ever had to worry about being able to pay all my bills at months end (although I did borrow $500 from my Mom for a new fridge once ... back in 1985, my second year living on my own .... I had the money but it would have brought my bank account below my emergency fund threshold).
I started saving from the day I started working. I always saved half of what I made. I didn't get married until we were making enough to cover all monthly expenses, plus a surplus for savings.
I was curious if other ERs / STB-ERs were the same.
*STB = soon to be
