I'll put that in my notes for our business income. @ The Diva: Good solution! And it probably feels much better than hitting up the e-fund all the time. @ Ron: Ah yes, don't you love it when you start contemplating a change and something tells you to do it?! @ Jill: Let me know how it goes! @ Jay: A year sounds like a good amount of time to let everything sit before moving it to another account.

I'm contemplating a job change to a position that could have one of those irregular pay checks (albeit much larger) so I'm glad you wrote about this. Maybe it's a sign??? :) Timely post!

Every 3 months my end of month check takes a hit. I found that prepaying my utilities, etc. w/the 2 checks prior works as I'm not so crazed. I used to take the money out of my E-fund, but I had to always pay myself back. I found it easier just to budget for the fixed expenses. Good post. Every 3 months my end of month check takes a hit.

Thank you, as a family with irregular paychecks, we've gone through many permutations as to how to get by on the slimmer paychecks. The most successful is having everything budgeted as if we're having minimum income all the time and excess stays in savings until we've survived a year of irregular bills. I would feel safe then moving excess to a better investment vehicle. So far, there's been no excess :-) Very nice post!
