[quote=cooprider]Empty the pool and charge the local skater kids $2 a pop to skate in it. Sell drinks, posters, grip tape, and bearings for additional cash flow.

Apply the revenues towards said utility bill.[/quote]

Before I even opened the post my first thought was get a smaller house. I was just having this conversation today, you don’t need a 5500 sq ft house. People wonder why we’re in an economic mess and many of these same people think they need all sorts of things they don’t “need”. You even admitted you have stuff you rarely use like your boat. You don’t need 3 fridges. I don’t know why most people have wine fridges because everytime I have ever looked in one, they don’t even own wine worth chilling in a wine fridge and they DRINK the wine they buy, they aren’t aging it.

Secondly, I doubt you have all energy efficient appliances, as indicated by the lighting costs you have. I know that my monthly bill doesn’t vacillate by much regardless of how often I run the laundry, the dishwasher, etc.

Sounds like you need to scale back on all the “stuff” you think you need.

Incandescent (standard) recessed lighting is really inefficient. Remember that if you are running the a/c then you are paying twice over (more in fact) because the a/c is removing the heat from the light bulbs!

Replace all your incandescent bulbs with CFLs, especially the recessed ones. Get an electrician to replace the dimmer switches with regular switches that allow you to choose which bulbs to have on.

Don’t bother with so-called dimmable CFLs. They cost a lot more and don’t work well.
