Have you paid the premiums for your mortgage life insurance yet? I nearly forgot to pay my wife’s premiums recently. It’s a lot of hassle if you forget to make any payment.
In fact, managing your financial payment schedule is pretty confusing. So using a tool like Google Calendar with its email or SMS notifications can be pretty useful to remind you that something needs paid.
I’m planning to create a list of events for all my ongoing expenses in Google Calendar:
- car payments
- credit cards
- mortgage payments
- life insurance
- tax deadlines
- building management fees
I wonder how many others I need to add before I’m comfortable with not forgetting things. The regular payments aren’t so bad, but anything less than one month in frequency needs a little ‘help’.
