    I reckon it takes at least a days work every 2/3 weeks to ensure that all the relevant bank accounts are in place and money moved to maximise interest/ incentives, which is ok for me as a riterated person :)

    This is an interesting idea and I tend to agree.
    It would be easier if everything would go through on the 1st of the month but it doesn't so several reminders on the calendar - much relief on the 16th of the month when all the incomings and outgoings are complete for the month :)
    Then there is the very tedious letters that arrive which need careful reading to make sure no nasty surprises are looming :)
    And filing so no paperwork starts forming into compost heaps :D

    Its like a very complicated juggling game :)
