Pay Schedule Preferences

When I began teaching, I was paid once a month. That really worked well, as bills were once a month, and once those were paid, I knew I could eat on what was left! Later, my husband was still paid once a month and I took a job where I was paid twice a month. We still tried to live like we were paid once a month. I've never been paid weekly, and I don't think I would like it.

It's probably all in what you are used to, but I was curious. What is your preference in your pay schedule, and why?

I get paid on the 10th & 25th. I put myself in the position where my mortgage is paid out of the 10th funds and every other bill I have is out of the 25th funds. I pay a couple of things on the early side as they bill me for them on the 26th or 27th and as soon as the e-mail notification hits they are paid.

I really love how I have it worked out...but it took some years to figure it all out and make it work.
