    Rand:

    sorry but I disagree, I have reserves built up (would be crazy to be a freelancer w no reserves, if you are doing that, you should sign up for the next X-Games).

    But cashflow is SUPER important, you need to be able to get your money on time always, like akrok said, everything has a deadline, I can't just go and tell my landlord things like:

    a) listen, I'm still waiting to hear from my client so payment will take a couple of months, don't worry I'll pay up, have I ever let you down?

    b) why don't you just let me stay this month for free, I will tell all my friends how awesome of a landlord you are? listen, send me your logo on a posterboard, and I will put that on my window, how is that? you'll be famous!

    c) I'm going to stay a month on apt 3, then another month on apt 1 and then I'll move to apt 7, when I decide which one I like best, I'll pay you rent, how's that?

    • you still have cash flow, it just started later
      ********
    • yeah, I can't have that. Not having it on time affects my ability to spend moneyMiguex
    • not if you have a cushion greater than the delay in paying, it's all the same then
      ********
    • hahaaha, aaaaalright, lets agree on disagreeing :)Miguex
