<prompt> Human: Next week Ill be starting at a new job where Ill be paid bi-weekly. I feel as though this will incline me to save more of my money, but am I wrong? Have any of you made this change recently and noticed youve been saving or spending more?  <response>: If youre budgeting properly when you get paid should have no effect on how much you save with one exception.That exception being that getting paid once every two weeks will lead to better savings than twice a month as its a long time between third paychecks in a month so you will treat your pay as though youre getting paid bi-monthly and then just end up with a lump sum twice a year that can be directed straight to savings.
