Re: More work and money down the tubes........ Elle
The bank sends a statement every month unless you opt for a paperless one even if you bank on line. It lists how much you have in each account that you might have. It also lists each check that has gone through that they've paid..so at the end of the month you know exactly how much is left after those checks have gone through. The only thing you have to remember is what checks you've written that are not listed on the statement and have not gone through yet. There are no percentages to calculate it's only addition and subtraction. adding up the checks that are still open and subtracting their total from the balance the bank statement gives you. In most cases, the amount you pay out each month will be pretty close to the same unless something extraordinary comes up. You can get a simple calculator to help you with the math. If that still is too difficult, as Ed suggests, you can get a trusted person at the bank to give you a hand. No one should allow someone else to control their assets without being aware themselves of what they have or don't have. It isn't being untrusting, it's being wise.
