Yeah I can imagine that would make me pretty angry too! And possibly homeless. I'm currently living paycheck to paycheck, meaning if I didn't get paid for a months work then I wouldn't have enough money to pay rent.
It sounds like this is probably something I shouldn't risk without at least a month's financial buffer?
- orangethirty 14y agoI normally go for 3 months buffer at the very least, and currently have about 6. Always have done this, even when I had a regular job. It allows me to live without worries. But in any case, you can lower the risk of getting scammed by asking for initial deposits. I always do that. Did it with the company that scammed me and I wasn't totally fucked. I lost about 60% of the total of the project, but not a 100%.
- ChaimS 14y agoAgree with this guy. Cutting the work into small tranches is an option too. Remember that the one who is employing is afraid of being scammed as well!
