But I'm dedicating this year to get back on track financially! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-ever-afraid-to-check-your-bank-account#post-472866 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 18:53:31 +0000 ladyfingers 472866@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. We have a budget and stick to it but sometimes I'm scared that like some weird huge expense will go through or I'll go in and realize we haven't been keeping track of our discretionary spending very well. I just get paranoid, there's never a real reason for me to be afraid! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-ever-afraid-to-check-your-bank-account#post-472861 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 18:44:26 +0000 MamaMoose 472861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My credit card (that we put EVERYTHING on) and my mortgage get paid automatically on the 20th so I always check my account on the 21st and it always hurts a little! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-ever-afraid-to-check-your-bank-account#post-472848 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 18:30:57 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 472848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TurtleDoves: I can totally relate! I never shopped before having a baby unless it was absolutely necessary. Now, it's so easy for me to drop $100 on DD at one store! I need to make it my new years resolution to stop (ok, well slow down) my spending on her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-ever-afraid-to-check-your-bank-account#post-472847 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 18:30:47 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 472847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It used to be that way, but once I took control of my finances and stuck with my budgeting, I found that those fears and dread vanished :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-ever-afraid-to-check-your-bank-account#post-472843 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 18:25:36 +0000 photojane 472843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ha! yes! i always feel a little sick as i'm typing in my username and password. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-ever-afraid-to-check-your-bank-account#post-472738 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 16:25:13 +0000 autumnlove 472738@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha, I was a shopaholic during my maternity leave! I am afraid to check my account because I just bought new windows and a sliding door. I hope that check hasn't cleared yet..haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-ever-afraid-to-check-your-bank-account#post-472736 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 16:21:29 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 472736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My online banking separates how much I spent in each area (fast food, department stores, online, grocery,gas...) and I don't even want to see how much I spent in department stores &amp; online! Having a baby is making me of a shopaholic than I was before (&amp; I was bad before!) I just can't resist some things out there;)<br /> Scared to look. Maybe I'll just peak at the balance &amp; not bother myself with what amount went to where... </p>
