Your point? Your interest on non-escrowed funds in a liquid investment account would be about $10-$20 a year.
I much preferred escrow accounts than paying the tax and insurance bills myself before online banking and recurring automatic payments
Ain't it the truth.
I've really loosened my control on my finances in the last year. And I"m glad ... because I'm less stressed about them, and spend much less time on them, but so far haven't seen that it has had any negative impact.

We do have a budget, in the sense that we know that each month the overhead will be X, and we obviously know what that number is from adding up the electricity, the rents, phone bills, etc. We also track expenses and that is how we know how much the groceries, clothing etc are likely to be. The money for all this is transferred into a household/running account, the rest stays back.
