I do like this is a great post, don't get me wrong, but does anyone else feel that the points "Stop caring about only the money." and "Don't let clients pay you later." directly contradict themselves? How is it possible to "* Demand payment before you begin any work*" without seeming like you only care about the money?
And while I already know the answers to my questions, because they are meant to be more rhetorical, they may try rephrasing those points for that seemingly direct contradiction.
- alanctgardner2 14y ago> Stop caring about ONLY the money It doesn't say you can't like money, or consider it. They just mean take pride in your work, and love what you do. If you already know the answer, is it worth writing a comment about? They phrased the headings fine, you read them wrong.
- bluetidepro 14y ago> They phrased the headings fine, you read them wrong. Fair enough, that may have been the case. I guess I just took it differently.
- sherm8n 14y agoDemanding to get paid before doing any work is beneficial to both parties. It shows that you're both serious about executing on the project. And it doesn't contradict anything because now you care about the success of the engagement. Not the money since you already got the payment over with.
