MrMelodramatic 01/19/23 1:48:55 PM #8:	The guys a dummy BUT i will say that I really liked in college that I would get all my money (from scholarships, grants, whatever) for the semester given to me a week before classes started, and then I had to make sure that lasted until the start of the next semester. Having a set amount of money in August and knowing thats all I would have until January made me more careful about my spending habits for sure.

Maybe you're outside of the US. Monthly is the least common schedule of payment in the US. With Biweekly being #1 and Weekly being #2 and Semi-monthly being #3. Weekly and Biweekly are good for hourly employees. Semiweekly is for people who make a salary and it's just 2 checks a month.

captpackrat 01/20/23 5:23:37 AM #32:	My employer pays semimonthly rather than biweekly. 24 pay periods per year instead of 26. Not really much of a difference in terms of getting the money, but it makes for really weird timekeeping. Pay periods always begin on the 1st and 16th, regardless of what day of the week it is. This also means each one can range from 9 work days to 12, so the checks can be different amounts each time. The current pay period is 12 days, so my next check will be a big one, but the second half of February is only going to be 9 days, so it'll be a lot smaller. While the taxes fluctuate with the size of the check, there are a lot of expenses (health insurance, dental, vision, HSA, etc) that are a fixed amount and they hit a lot harder when you get a smaller check. --- Minutus cantorum, minutus balorum, Minutus carborata descendum pantorum. <cite>captpackrat posted [p:970965812] in Guy says b...
