Anyone w/a secret sociopath's side wanna help me do some collectin'?

I've had it w/deadbeat clients...
WHO'S WITH ME?!! :)
There's much more money to add to my tally actually... but I've decided to forget about some of it as I realize they're lost causes...

I'm with you PonyBoy, but it will cost you 20% of the $5776 + Outstanding and an additional 10% interest after 30 days from my initial invoice to you.
But I'm with you! One client I have, has 50 days standard policy for cutting a check. I always forget about it after a month and it's nice when it shows up in the mailbox.

If you have "contracs" (with an 's') then why don't you pay a lawyer a couple hundred and get the mulah that-a-way?
- PonyBoy0

I find invoices work wonders. The client usually recieves the invoice and places a check in the mail for the amount specified. When you recieve the check, frame it, and feel the karma.
- PonyBoy0
i've invoiced the hellfire out of these people...
... that's not the issue...

damn pony, that sucks. I have been there. things will come around.

Do you get any money up front to cover start-up costs for a project? Usually, if the client's invested anything into a project, they feel obligated to see it through.

you should ask k0na to kick them in the face. or ask him to throw liquid items at them while they are driving away. that always works for me.
