Some of that is due to the traditional monthly nature of payments and expenses, which is beyond some people's planning horizon. How do you think it would change if everything (both BI deposit and rent payment) were weekly, or even daily?
- wprapido 10y agoUK/US/AU/NZ have weekly salaries, welfare, rent and it works pretty fine
- spoonie 10y agoI've seen London rental advertisements list weekly prices as a way to conceal their cost, but I've never heard of anyone taking payments weekly. Do council-provided flats have weekly bills?
- jsmthrowaway 10y agoNew Zealand also calculates weekly. For example, a landlord can only ask for two weeks "up front" (aside from a bond). Weekly is common outside the US, whether advertising-only or otherwise.
