HERE IS A CHART IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PRINT ONE OFF
Grand total is 6375, AND I GET ME AND THOMAS PAID DAYS(REMEMBER WE BOTH GET PAID TWICE A MONTH) AND EACH MONTH WE PICK WHAT WE WANT TO PAY OFF.
EXAMPLE IF WE WANTED TO PAY OFF RENTAL CAR WE WOULD TAKE THE 240/ 4 PAYMENT BECAUSE I GET PAID TWICE AND SO DOES THOMAS, SO OUT OF OUR CHECK WE WOULD TAKE OUT 60.00 A PIECE. AND THEN WE WOULD PUT THE MONEY ON VACATION DEBIT CARD. SO EACH MONTH WE WOULD PICK WHAT WE WANTED TO PAY OFF AND THEN WE WOULD HAVE SAVED FOR THE VACATION RIGHT ON TIME.
VACATION DEBIT CARD IS A ACCOUNT ME AND THOMAS HAVE SET UP TOGETHER SO WHEN WE ARE SAVING MONEY WE CAN PUT IT INTO THAT ACCOUNT AND WE CAN KEEP TRACK OF HOW MUCH WE ACTUALLY PAID FOR EVERYTHING.
