Jange, you don't have to answer this, but I am wondering how much did your payment go up based on the bonus amount?

Newday I did compare the numbers at one point, but my lawyer adjusted a few things and now I don't remember the split. The trustee didn't like our cell phones either, and a few small things nothing major. Most of it was the bonus. I also had a small raise that was probably a bit also. But he didn't take the entire bonus and if I remember that year my bonus was lower than previous years. We also didn't get much of a tax return that year.
My lawyer did a pretty good job of setting up our payment and I got some wiggle room in areas that were allowed, but I wasn't spending since at that point I didn't have any money. While I would have liked the old amount better, I can manage the increased amount.
5 years is such a long time and so many things can and do change.

No, My plan is 100%. In my district unless the trustee finds something wrong at the 341Meeting of Creditors. It only takes about a month to get confirmation!
