&gt; This system doesn&#x27;t help with the tactics of making sure there&#x27;s the right amount in your checking account at the right time. Ive had many close calls where my paycheck is every two weeks but bills are monthly, and 2x2 weeks ≠ 1 month.<p>A paycheck every two weeks can never give you <i>less</i> than two paychecks a month. It&#x27;ll give you three paychecks in two out of twelve months. So the issue you describe could never cause you to be unexpectedly short of cash? How could you have a &quot;close call&quot;? (I&#x27;m assuming here that a paycheck gives you money, and bills take it away.)
