How do you usually pay your bills - in cash or by another method? Why?
I almost exclusively use online banking to pay my bills now. It's much more time-saving than dealing with cash. I can schedule payments in advance, so I never forget a due date. Plus, it's safer, as I don't have to carry large sums of cash around. There are times when I need to pay for something small in cash, like a street vendor, but that's quite occasional.

Have you ever forgotten to pay a bill? Why/Why not?
No, I have yet to forget paying a bill. I'm quite organized when it comes to managing my finances. As I mentioned earlier, I usually set up automatic payments for most of my bills, so I don't have to worry about missing any deadlines.

Is there anything you could do to make your bills cheaper? Why/Why not
I think there are indeed certain ways to lessen the financial burden of bills. For example, I could be more mindful of my energy consumption by turning off lights and appliances when not in use, or switching to green energy. Additionally, shopping around for better deals on utilities like electricity and internet could potentially save me some money. I also think cooking at home more often instead of eating out would help cut down on food expenses.
