    Not financially, but actually keeping things in order and making sure everything gets paid in a timely manner?

    Those living at home or only paying one or two bills need not respond.

    I'm looking for people running households.

    I moved back home for a small percentage of my adult life. I was initially out of the house at 19 and spent many years paying my own ? ..so yes, I have BEEN doing this. Even when I was staying with my mom, I was the second income for a good amount of my stay there.

    Talk about what you know about little boy.

    And if it was a matter of not having the money, the lights wouldn't be on right now...well, yes they would but still, I paid that ? .

    How long you go without paying the light bill though? Electric companies are pretty lenient on that ? they usually wont turn your ? off for several months especially in the winter. U forgot to pay your light bill for several months?

    Several months? Where you live at?

    It hasn't been that long since I paid the last bill..apparently over a month though.

    I dont forget to pay my bills because my rent, cell phone, cable, and 2 of my CCs are all due within the first week of the month. My insurance, other CC, and CPS are due in like the third week of the month. My cell bill i pay cash at the phone store, CPS I pay at HEB, and rent I write a check. Everything else is online. I make sure that I receive payment confirmation in my email

    I get all my bills automaticly taken out of the account. My money is in a government (credit union). I use to ? around with the m&t's wells fargo (wachovia) & Bank of america. But it seems everytime I do that I see crazy charges, or money thats taken out of my account thats unexplainable by the bank. When my money is in the credit union I don't have that problem. Plus even if my ssn# is stolen my money is protected. (my account is private)

    go to mint.com or pageonce.com and setup a free account, once you setup the account you can view all your bills at one place and they have iphone/android apps, its real intuitive and you can set it to where they send you emails a week before a bill is due.

    Then why exclude other such people from your thread?

    I recall you collecting unemployment and other forms of government assistance while living at home. Does that count for talking about what I know?
