We also tend to have utilities billing us on a monthly schedule. We tend to have rent or mortgage payments running on a monthly schedule. It’s most convenient if these cycles are aligned with our income cycles.

I understand that in the US some utilities also run on monthly schedules. Surely that’s less convenient where you might feel more squeezed in some periods that others due to your income cycle delivering either 2 or 3 payments during any particular month?
