Back to Em and one of our long talks in the office. Em, had brothers who roomed in the same house.

At times, Em wanted to get the brothers known as being accountable for expenses and contributing to same.

So it was suggested that Em and her brothers would contribute to the amount of the bill and one brother would go and pay the bill, using either their Linx or cash.

At that time, we did not discuss the concept of her brothers having credit cards as there were areas with which we did not get into conversation, since revealing some of the details would have created an impression of her brothers which neither of us wanted to get into.

So it was agreed that at a statutory authority such as T&TEC, one of Em's brothers would pay the bill using his LINX and with the reimbursements being received before he paid the bill, he could:

Deposit those amounts into his account and

Be able to be identified as being resident on the property or a contributor to the costs of the property.

Now whether Em, wanted to have some of the costs of the home absorbed by her brothers or whether she wanted them to help her out with the chores, the brothers established themselves as being responsible since the bills would be paid on time as she would need the receipts with which she was familiar, being responsible for the filing in our department.

So, do you share the costs or the work with others so that they have date and times as being in places?

Some of us use checking the balance on our bank account as a way to check the time when we are in a place and for some of us it is a way to get some air conditioning on a hot day.

So what do you do?
