Money Stuff
Feb. 17th, 2009 11:17 amI pay an assocation fee every month to my condo assocation to cover common expenses like heat, water and garbage. This is my least favorite bill for a few reasons:
1) I have to write a check for this every month. Most of my bills are set up for online payment.
2) I get all the slips first thing in the year and have to remember to pay it by the first of the month.
3) It is $462 so it is a big chunk of money that sits in my checking account. I mostly just keep money I can spend in my checking account and when it runs out I stop spending so I have to keep track if this has come out or not.
4) The accountant takes forever to deposit the check. She has been know to wait up to three weeks.
Right now the assocation fee for Febraury hasn't come out of my checking account. Not a big deal, I have money in there for it. However, I am a little worried that it means I forgot to pay that bill this month. It isn't a huge late fee, it just annoys me when I forget things like that. It annoys me even more when I can't remember if I actually forgot it.
