Budget Budge-it Budget

[innerSpaceman]

1) Forgetting To Pay Bills - Has never happened, but I might just try that wamu.com GC speaks of.

2) Bank Fees - My account has no fees. Notice it's account singular.

3) Tickets [Moving violations and parking] - None in the last few years.

4) Memberships - The only thing close is my Disneyland AP, at a whopping $350 a year - ouch (when it's time to pay).

5) Subscriptions - I subscribe to a couple of magazines, less than a hundred per year. Plus Netflix at, what, $16 per month?

6) Letting food spoil in the fridge - um, not a problem. If an earthquake happens on a Friday, I'm screwed. (aka, only a week's worth of food in my house at a time.)

7) Wasting Energy - well, I do drive an SUV, so I guess I waste energy on a regular basis. I'm pretty good with electricity though.

8) Letting your money sit in a checking account - Ha. Um, excuse me, Hahahahahahahahahahaha!

9) Buying DVDs you will never, ever watch, or books you'll never read, or clothes you will never wear... This is my downfall. DVDs I will watch once, maybe twice. All the while, paying for Netflix. Ugh.

10) Paying too much for cable - My cable is included with my HOA fees, so I have no choice about it. I think it's $11 per month. A waste, since I don't watch any TV ... but no opt out available.
