Re: Unexpected Bills
Depends on how you define 'unexpected', doesn't it?
We all know we are going to have these kind of expenses and would be wise to figure them into our spending plans so they don't catch us off guard and end up having to be charged to CCs as a result or depleting our emergency funds.
If we find it hard to fund them all, that just tells us that we really can't afford to go blow $50 on a night out when it's possible that the car could blow or we might have a sick animal and not have the money for it. We all hope these things won't happen, but they always seem to, don't they? Therefore - they are really EXPECTED, it's just that many of them happen so infrequently that we forget to plan and budget for them.
