Paperwork junkie or junkie?

[Genenco]

Ok, during meeting with lawyer, he asked for my W-2 forms..Didn't have them, said I would find them (I have them now, he gets them Friday with 50% of fees) and I said "I'm not good at keeping papers..."

He replied nicely enough "I see that with many who file"

Hmmmm....Makes me wonder. Not that I don't keep records (Somewhat) but how good do we keep ours?

I now have a file cabinet and am tagging the file folders (Gas, food, rent, vet and such) but was wondering about this.

Are we paperwork junkies, or just junkies?

A lot of people never keep receipts of their bills, nor do they really realize what their expenses are..
A good filing system, and an idea of where your money goes - doesn't hurt anyone.......even may be helpful.

I have good intentions-but bad results. Things tend to pile up on the desk. We have a stack of paid bills (good that they're paid-right?) but it is disorganized so if I need something, I have to go thru the entire pile.

I've started using online billpay thru my bank-that is helping as it stores my history. I've gone to online billing w/ my power & gas bills also.
