Does anyone know how long you should keep things like old billing statements, old medical insurance EOB statements, paycheck stubs, etc? I am drowning in paperwork of this sort and I don't want to buy a new filing cabinet...I want to get rid of it.
I mean, I see no reason on earth to keep old electric bills from the apt. that we rented and left 6+ years ago, do you? I think we have almost every single bill statement we've paid since we got married 10+ years ago. We can't keep them all.
DH however, is a paranoid attorney (is there any other kind?:wink2:) and the only thing he really keeps is paperwork. I need to know the "rules" here, pretty please!
