Those pesky reoccurring monthly bills
 
The Positions thread touched on a subject that has been on my mind
lately. All those monthly bills that come just for living a normal life
style.
I have posted mine below, this may not cover them all, I just recently
started compiling them.

Health insurance $7800.00
Car Insurance $1200.00
House Insurance $1621.00
Cable/Internet/Phone $1464.00
City Utilities, Water/sewer/garbage $1200.00
Electric $2055.00
Property Tax $1000.00
Cellphone $1500.00
Mastercard $10,500.00

TOTAL $28,340.00

The Mastercard probably doesn't belong, but it includes
gas for our vehicles driven daily.

You can see very near $30k just for the basics to keep the household
going. I haven't added food and ...

I'm in an area where I see a lot of people with the only reoccurring
bill they have is their cellphone. They don't have a home, car or
insurance to pay. But they have that cellphone, often a smartphone.


Your thoughts. Any additions to the list?

Wouldn't those be what you pay annually, and not monthly? I realize
precision with language is not valued much in rec.boats but, still...

If you really want to be precise Those are annual totals of mostly
monthly bills. You need to practice your precision with language. Asshole.

My Dish/phone/internet bill is about $300.

My wife pays about $300 for 3 smart phones and 2 dumb cell phones.

The power bill cruises around $250 (all electric house with a well,
pool and spa)
I pay $50 for 2 web sites
$8 for a news server
$21 for AOL

So that is not quite a grand but close.

House insurance is $1200, with no wind and flood

Car insurance is $1700 (3 vehicles)

Boat is $60 a year (liability only)

My medicare part B is $1200 a year

I pay $2200 for life insurance

I am not sure what my wife's insurance is

My Amex bill cruises around $1300 a month ($15,600 a year)but that is
pretty much all I spend for gas food and just about everything else I
buy locally or on line. It is on auto pay so I do not incur interest.
I seldom pay cash for anything these days.

My pension check covers all of that with some left over.

I am banking my SS check and use that money for things like a new
motor for my boat and projects around the house

My wife uses her money for fun like our vacations and spoiling the
kids. My tax refund buys 2 first class airplane tickets, where ever we
go

To be honest, this is the first time I ever really added this stuff
all up. I just look at my bank statement for my working account and
make sure it stays about the same.


You should teach Krause how to balance his budget.

Don't forget more ammo! WalMart had Federal 9mm (aluminum case) for
$9.97/50rds today. Couldn't resist.

ooooh...can't want to see some of those 3' groups you shoot offhand at
25 yards. Use a really big sheet of paper.

I scored some Wolf Match Target 22lr the other day for about 16 cents
a round. That's up from about 11 cents prior to the "great shortage"
but down from 21 cents when it was almost unobtanium.

Some of these " bills " are not necessary. Cell Phone for one. Who in their right minds pays $1460.00 per MONTH for Cable, Internet, and Phone? Ours is $210.00 for all three. $7800.00 per MONTH for Health Insurance? Another bill you're being gouged for. $1621.00 per month for House Insurance? How many houses are you insuring, 10?
And to top it off, you state you are charging $10,500 per MONTH on your Mastercard? You are retarded. Even if that number represents the total you OWE on that Card, CUT IT UP, it's killing you and you don't know how to manage debt worth a ****.
