<prompt> Human: Ive been thinking about a notion with budgeting thats kinda weird and maybe dangerous, but I wanted to ask what you thought.So, getting paid biweekly is really stupid for budgeting. 1012 of the year, I get two paychecks a month, 212 of the year, I get three. It means I never get the exact amount I budget per month. I usually budget more than I actually get, and only occasionally I get more than I budget. Id love to see more companies adopting bimonthly pay; any of yall agree?Anyway, a possible solution for this: Im trying to put a decent amount into savings. Instead of saving the same amount each month, I plan my budget around just getting two paychecks. I put very little of each paycheck into savings, but that twice-a-year third paycheck I treat as a windfall, and put the whole thing into savings.Whatcha think? Stupid? Genius? Weird? Already a thing?  <response>: This is the correct and recommended way to budget for a bi-weekly paycheck. The next step beyond this is to build up a buffer fund of one months pay as a cushion, and then youll never really need to count down to your next payday.
