Oh horror, please don't tell me I have to deal with this in the game! 
Seriously though, if I do, I'm out.

Have you read any of the posts above your last one? Or are you one of those people who gets a kick out of paying bills? :\

actually the way they describe it in those posts (Which I did read, by the way) seem to clearly point out that you DON'T have to worry about paying bills, it's simplified into the Wealth Bonus system so you don't have to take that into account. Your Wealth Bonus reflects what you can buy/do AFTER bills are taken care of.
The way I understand it, you pick your lifestyle, and then your current Wealth bonus (Be it 1 or 20) is how much money you have left over AFTER paying your bills, rent, etc, etc.
EX : My character has a Wealth Rating of 8. I have a loft, and a Motorcycle (Both on a monthly Rent). I don't have to worry about paying the Loft's rent, Electricity/cable bills, or the Motorbike's monthly bills, the Wealth 8 is for other stuff. Say I want to go see a play, Have a fancy dinner, buy cocaine, get a hooker, bribe a cop, hire a hitman, or go to hawaii for the weekend. Those are NOT allready worked into the system, and as such are additional expenses which, if they have a purchase DC of higher than 8, I would loose wealth for.
So you dont have to worry about paying mundane bills.

My character, Gregory Spears, has been updated.
[sblock=Guardsmith]I got rid of that lame Logical talent from MPC2 and just got Savant from the core rules. I downgraded his notebook PC to a standard one, and also dropped most of the mastercraft stuff I bought. Took 10 or 20 on the ones for which I had to roll. Now, I'm broke![/sblock]

Hawaii isn't that great on the weekends. No one posts! 
Well, I guess I'm unscared now, so I really ought to get to work on that character sometime soon, probably next week.

OK,
Insight, Salthorae, Rhun and Mista Collins, your characters are all set to go.
[sblock=Jemal] You character is fine, except for one thing. With the house rules I posted, a leather jacket isn't a form of armor any more. (I realize that my PDF on Armor is vague on the subject, and I haven't had time to revise it). To clarify, the armors in the PDF are the only kinds of armors that may be purchased (unless someone wants archaic armor). If armor is too expensive for your character, please do not worry about it; you will be taken care of.[/sblock]
Finally, Dire Lemming, is there any chance that you can have a character ready before next week? Sorry to be a noodge, but I'm a little anxious to get going.

Hm, well I just finished my second exam for better or worse, so I can actually probably start working on the character now.
By the way, what kinds of characters are there already and are there any types in particular that are needed?
