Friday Five: PayDay!

A very late Friday Five today…

1. How often do you get paid?

Monthly usually.

2. Do you tend to splurge a little on (or shortly after) pay day?

Not really, I can manage money properly.  That means I can make reckless purchases at any time :p

Because I’m busy all the time, I don’t get much time to buy things which means if I want something, I’ll write it down and see if I still want it in a few weeks.

3. What are the few days leading up to pay day like for you?

Just normal days.  I don’t eagerly await the money to buy something – if I’m doing that, chances are I don’t really have the money to spare.

4. If you had the option, would you like to be paid daily for each day’s work?

Absolutely.  Interest = free money.

5. When did you get your first paycheck and what was it for?

My first officially printed paycheck was for working in Maplin (electronics retail).  2003 sometime.
