It would be nice if all my bills lined up time-wise. On the one hand, having them at different times means using different paychecks to cover them, so I’m not out a huge chunk of money at once.
But on the other hand, I never get that feeling of, “Okay, all my bills are covered this month.” It’s always, “Something else still needs to be paid soon… rent? No, I paid that two weeks ago. Is it my phone bill? Mmm nope, I still have time on that. Electricity maybe?”
Then once it’s all paid, the next month begins and the cycle goes on.
You can usually call to have your billing cycle adjusted so you can either spread them out or have them all come due at the same time. Not every bill from every company, like rent might not be super flexible, but most utilities and subscriptions and stuff are willing to roll a partial month into the next billing cycle to give you a new due date.

It never stops. 😭
Put all the bills on a credit card set to autopay. Now all you have to do is pay off the card’s balance once a month.
