But isn't that completely arbitrary? I mean, unless you bought one
single thing with your card, saying that "I paid off this but not
that" just seems to be a mental fiction that doesn't serve any
purpose.
I'm trying to avoid excess complexity here. Having the budgeting
system go and mark line-items when you pay your credit card bill
seems way too complicated for what you might get in return. Am
I misunderstanding the proposal?
