How do you keep important paper work filed? I am about to buy a filing cabinet at Staples, but they are so ugly! Any ideas? TIA
Re: Filing papers?
I picked up "Smart Couples Finish Rich," and applied this filing system: http://www.finishrich.com/pdf/worksheets-step1.pdf
In addition to getting your finances in order, you should keep passports, birth certificates, social security cards (NEVER keep these in your wallet!) and car titles in a safety deposit box.
Hope this helps you; I know it did for me!
My mom bought me a filing cabinet from Target that had a modern look to it. The only thing is it has 2 drawers and a small one and now I'm needing another one. I just set up files for each bill or important info (like taxes, bank, and etc). I just drop it in the file when I'm done with it. This is what works for me. We are all different so I would set it up depending on what is the easiest for you.
Thank you for that link! I was just stressing out about all the paper work and bills I have kept and not sure how to file them.
Do you keep your utility bills?
