Re: how often do you get paid?

As a teacher in New Zealand, I get paid every two weeks on a wednesday. When I lived in Canada, was paid once every month. I prefer to get paid fortnightly.

Hi!

I get paid DAILY with my home business if I am writing business daily, that is. I love it!

15th and last day of the month and bonus at the end of March.

Re: how often do you get paid?

Dh and I are each paid every two weeks, opposite weeks, though, so we have a cheque deposited every Friday, which is nice.

I used to get paid the last day of the month, which I hated. We were always in a crunch by the 25th or so...

Re: how often do you get paid?

DH and I are both paid weekly. I think it would kill me if my company switched to any other schedule. I'm the one that does the payroll!

I am currently paid bi-weekly. I used to receive pay monthly. Monthly pay makes it hard towards the end of the month.

Re: how often do you get paid?

We have 4 paychecks a month. All go directly into our checking account and 3 of them come in the first 3 days of the months (actually 2 on the 1st and 1 on the 3rd). Then we have another check that arrives on the third Wed. of the month. I kinda like this because with the first 2 checks we pay our regular bills, with the 3rd and 4th, we split up our household spending...like each of our allowances, grocery money etc. Anything that often people use cash for although we don't always take it all in cash.

Re: how often do you get paid?

Job pays monthly. Second gig pays every two weeks. Third gig if I can set it up will pay monthly. Life has become, in terms of work, a chunk of change here and another one there!

Re: how often do you get paid?

I get paid weekly with one job, while my other one pays bi-weekly. I also get money from my book tours' sales. The honorariums pay my travel/tour expenses, as I'm out on my own now- publishing my own books. I actually like it better this way. Sometimes I have paypal payments for cookbook sales. I set up at flea markets with my line of Amish jams/sorghum in the summer and early fall, but end up spending alot shopping!

Re: how often do you get paid?

Every two weeks. I've never had anything different.

It's kind of irritating, because I can never remember which week I get paid and which I don't. I write it down in my dayplanner so I'm always consulting that!

On the plus side, those months where I end up getting 3 cheques rather than 2 feel great!

Hubby gets paid every Thursday!! I get paid every other week on Fridays!

Re: how often do you get paid?

I get paid on the last working day of the month - at least for one more month until I lose my job!

DH gets paid each week.

I prefer to get everything ONCE a month.

Re: how often do you get paid?

dh gets paid every other week, i get paid the 15th and the last day of the month. pretty much works out to a check every week, which makes budgeting oh so much easier!

Re: how often do you get paid?

I get paid bi-weekly and have always budgeted that way until lately. I now have enough that I pay my bills, transfer money to savings and fund my envelopes (yes I use the envelope system for day to day expenses) on the first day of the month using money from the last month. My budget is based on the two paycheck months so the third usually ends up in a savings fund.
