I am not going to do it

If I can pay it now I'd rather do it than doubling my payment in the future.

My bills are all paid on time. Thankful to have an income to be able to do so.

Will pay my bills like usual.

I am with you on this. Luckily I am still working, and so is the wife, and so for now there's no loss of income. Plus we have substantial savings to rely on. You are absolutely right. The bills don't disappear. They just double and triple. I'd rather just continue to conduct business as usual. No sense in trying to dig and deeper holes unnecessarily.

My thought is the extension does not help us anyway. What's the difference when you still pay it later? It should be waived if they really want to help. One month uncollected payment is not a big loss I think.

I fully agree. If one has the means to pay, it makes no sense to take on unnecessary debt. I have been advising my son, who is still working (from home, while sick with the virus) enjoy the fact that your student loans are not accruing interest but make sure to keep the payments up. It will reduce the principle much faster that way. No matter what, they will expect the money eventually. Pay while you can. On the other hand, if you cannot pay without risking your ability to put food on the table, absolutely take advantage and pray that after this is over things will look much differently and money will be flowing again.

None of the companies, including my apartment complex, so I am possibly going to be evicted! And even if I don't get evicted my lease will be up in August and I have to give them notice by June 10th that I will be moving out.That will not be possible for me.

Nothing changes for us, we are both retired and we receive our pension from the Government and we will continue to receive it as usual.

I still keep paying my bills, I am not taking up the extensions they offered for 3 months, because you have to pay that and would be more difficult. I am thankful ,that I am able to continue to pay the bills

I will just pay my regular bills. But I will file my taxes later if I can't get to my tax preparer in early April.

Like you, we are going to continue to pay bills as normal unless ... they say you won't owe it at all. I'm sure they're not going to do that. Staying normal as possible as much as we can is best for our mental health. I agree with you.

Nope. Has nothing to do with ours. We're all paid up. Though up until last week we hadnt paid on our electricity since October. Now its all paid. As well as internet, phones, car payments and insurance. Just have rent here on the 1st to pay.

@GardenGerty I hate the virus.

I'm like you, I'll still pay my bills. We went down to the mailbox yesterday and I sent out my mail as I normally do. But I'm not falling for the putting off paying bills. One fun thing though, my mohair supplier for my teddy bears has offered a challenge. They offered a special "Corona Virus" kit which has the stuff to make a voo doo doll of sorts that represents the virus that we can stick pins in. When the various bear artists finish their designs they are to send pictures to the supplier (if I remember right the supplier is going to post them on her site....I was still rattled from the amorous advances from the tom turkeys on the way home when I read the offer). Any how it's going to be fun, and the stimulus is going towards repaying Bill for a loan and then for buying some mohair for making teddy bears. That's the nice thing about keeping the bills paid! You can treat yourself to things you enjoy. Thankfully the virus hasn't changed my life that much. I just get to do some reminiscing about some of the oddball things that happened when I was growing up, and my turning on some Tom Turkeys yesterday.

That's a very good plan. My husband and I are on track with our expenses and have no worries at all. We're self-employed with a nice cushion financially speaking and can easily afford a slow down or even a shut down. Our bills will be on time and paid in full.

I agree. No sense in delaying payments if you can afford them.

Not really a game changer for us either. Basically we owe for electricity, water and SlingTV. Cars and home have been paid off. We are thankful.

The bills will always come up whether the virus is here or not.

For me, no. I'll pay online with my phone. I found out how to get docs and print out at UPS which is thankfully open. Only snag might be renewing my State I Don't... they're closed. But my renewal isn't till October.

People have different opinions but what I know for sure that their are many programs that lessen our pay as long a sthis virus still exist.. And there are also people that has no income at all
