We just found out we owe more than I'd care to admit on our taxes. It stinks, but it's not going to sink us because we are prepared. And for that, I am exceptionally grateful.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00248348740599788697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7237510488098484827.post-46042077637204904562010-02-12T07:06:15.360-08:002010-02-12T07:06:15.360-08:00I think it is so ironic that I read this post just...I think it is so ironic that I read this post just minutes after complaining to my husband about having to pay for our new roof in 6weeks. <br /><br />We saved, and have recieved most of our insurance check, but it makes me mad to take it out of savings. So I told him my goal for the next 3 paychecks is to come up with the $$$ for our roof.<br /><br />It is essential to save for unexpected things, but when it comes time to pay for something like this I almost always make it happen from paychecks. It is always a good reminder of how much really is discretionary in our budget.Stephanie Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14665381306583698029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7237510488098484827.post-21663129506270560022010-02-11T11:51:47.951-08:002010-02-11T11:51:47.951-08:00This is great advice.

I spent all afternoon yesterday working on our Mint.com account (Thanks to David's unbelievable seminar) and apparently we eat alot more food than I ever imagined. ha ha ha! <br />Janssen, how is Boston treating you? I don't think I've seen you since you moved. Congratulations to both you and Merrick on your baby news! You both will be wonderful moms. Merrick, I check in on your art blog every once in a while and your stuff is getting better and better each time I look. Are you loving the Bridge? It looks like an awesome program. CArole, thanks for all the advice I'm always hounding you with. You are so great. Your kids are lucky to have you.<br />Courtney Derrickderrickfamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11195613201391856393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7237510488098484827.post-9557956335045859862010-02-11T08:24:37.916-08:002010-02-11T08:24:37.916-08:00Add someone passing away to the list of things tha...Add someone passing away to the list of things that can go wrong. The bills still have to be paid until probate goes through. Try double (your own plus the deceased) house payments, double power bills, utility bills, etc. etc. Then, if there isn't money to cover debts, bills still have to be paid until a house and/or car and/or whatever are sold. (One cannot legally sell any of these things until they legally belong to you - after probate which can take nine months or longer.)Packrathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02986387347283221427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7237510488098484827.post-89493212919809191192010-02-11T07:28:31.332-08:002010-02-11T07:28:31.332-08:00Amen.

We have had countless "emergencies" of the unexpected nature in the past year and half... but always enough in savings to make it disappointing (to have to use the well saved money on it), but not bank breaking (or even overly troublesome). Always a huge relieving feeling washes over me when the unexpected knocks on our door.Carlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02624558841231207858noreply@blogger.com
