UPDATE: I'm finally now trying out the css features for the journal....damn, it did take a long time to do did it...lol...

Damn....these bills are killin me...
If it ain't one bad thing, its another...

I know some ain't that bad, but here is my standing until I can get me some freelance work in:

Checking Account: $117
(note all bills are due now or on the 1st of January)

Electric (Duquesne Lights): $120
Gas (Equitable Gas): $140
Phone (Sprint): $170
Internet/Cable (gay ass Comcast): $270
Rent (even though its paid off till febuary): $550/month

I used to have at least $2000 in the bank every month...but since Pittsburgh and my school is sooooo damn boring and when I get bored I spend money...I haven't seen $2000 in a hot minute...and plus school has been keeping my hours low at work...lets say 12 hrs every two weeks at $10/hr.....now its winter break..i just fucked 12 hrs in the ass in a day in the half...fuckin school...

So now I'm trying to get back up in the money management game...

Here's what I've been doing so far to improve:

- Work for an X-Box 360 and 37" flat screen tv so I WONT GET BORED during this winter

- Pack a lunch for work except for dining out or Wendy's and McDonalds

- Help track my spending with Mint.com and Wesabe.com

- Keep putting small amounts of money on each bill until I get like a big ass check at work to pay a lot of shit off...


So now its ur turn...whats ur tips on bills, money management, etc...even organization because I hate paper...and I try to manage everything on the computer as much as possible (even down to how many females I pumbled each week)...lol...

Sheeesh wait until you have a house mortgage

We have lotos of bills, but way more expensive than you, our fault as we really like to go shopping, i shop like i am gay ha ha ha i buy extremely expensive things on impulse ;P

But yea my biggest and host highly recommended suggestion to you would be to remember the follwoing.

" Bills come first " always get your bills taken care of before you do anything else, this weay you can learn to budget on your own without stupid websites, also maybe get some empty jars together, and each week put a little into each, label them eg: Gas / Electricity etc etc , this way theres always something there to use.

Another really great idea is to set up an untouchable savings account, which basically means you can put money in but not take it out ( until a certain time that is ), by doing this you will always have something for emergency's , OR simply to go towards that new car, house etc

But bro all i can say is two words " WILL POWER !! " use some ;)
