How many times in this business have you been screwed out of a check, or wire, or western union, or paypal?
How many times have sponsors either cheated you, or forgot to send a check, or just decided not to pay you?
Me... 3 times, i recovered one two years later when the person decided to do business with me again, & didn't realize who i was. They had screwed me out of $450 in 00', & in 2002 they contracted me to do some work, wired me the money & i just sat on it
(I requested exactly $450 for the job)
Sweet justice...thankfully i no longer have non-payment issue's & its been nearly a year since the last problem, thanks to some solid sponsors & relationships.
