Smile While Paying Your Bills
I smile as I pay my bills because I know that the money that I transfer from me goes to someone else, that is to an employee of the company I am paying. I am paying for their creativity and abilities in doing their jobs. I am helping them pay their rent and to put food on their tables.
I know this is a simple economic model, but it helps me.
Maybe you can benefit from this approach, too.
I hope so.

During the many years I was a small business owner/technician, this was the argument I tried to put forth, that the price my customer was complaining about was not pure profit to me, but paid all my overhead, my employees' family's expenses, my insurance bill, my taxes, and fed my suppliers' families. Sometimes they listened! Best wishes for your success!
I would prefer to spend my money on something other than bills. However I know I have to spend money to have a roof over my head and food on the table. I only support myself (no husband or kids) so I work on making extra money so I can have fun, like travel.
You are a saint - I would prefer to spend it on something other than bills - so we all hope to make a lot so we have lots to use for other endeavors and maybe help some other people. But good way of looking at - I have to pay bills today - I will try.
While it is true that some of the money goes to employees that are providing you a service, I have a problem with companies that make excessive profits over and above the service provided.
