I pay all my bills online so all our loans (mortgage, cars, credit cards) get paid every four weeks (mortgage from one and cars & cc from the next). All our monthly bills get paid from my check once monthly. After two years, you guessed it, we are four months ahead on our mortgage not counting the extra we pay just to get is over with, and our cars will be paid off early saving a few bucks in interest.
Since I’m a 10 month employee I don’t make as much in the summer. I put money aside each paycheck for the summer but it’s nice to have the option of skipping a mortgage or car payment during summer recess if I absolutely have to.

I often use “extra” money for purchases as well, but often times I try to save at least 50% of it.

Am also gonna ‘treat’ myself to a few things that I’ve been wanting as well.

I think a lot of it also has to do with people that are paid hourly compared to salaried workers. Maybe not necessarily that they ARE paid hourly, but a certain type of person that is content working an 8-5 hourly job for 15 years.

But that means they have been getting paid weekly and know nothing else. They also do not react to change very well (as seen in our experience with health care coverage) so being paid weekly is what it is.
