Paying regular payments on direct debit
Many of us spend too much time worrying about our finances. That’s not to say you shouldn’t sort them out, but you want a financial plan that serves you - not the other way round. Get organised and forget it, so you can get on with the serious business of enjoying your life.
I’ve hammered this one before, and it CANNOT be said too often. Get all your regular payments on direct debit. You won’t risk missing a payment and getting penalised, you’ll get discounts from certain suppliers (such as gas and electricity companies) and your intray and paperwork will be a lot lighter every week. Periodically you should do an audit of your direct debits and ensure you cancel any that are no longer needed.
