Budgeting when paydays do not line up

Simulated community examples only. Not financial, tax, investment, or legal advice.

One income in our household arrives monthly and the other weekly. The total is predictable; the bank balance is not.

What helped was budgeting everything monthly and keeping a separate bills buffer instead of assigning each weekly paycheck a job. Much less elegant, much less surprising.
