And customers are less likely to flake out if they've already forked out some dough.
I never used to take anything up front unless a client insisted on it. I preferred not to. I always felt more comfortable in having them satisfied first, before taking any cash. (but that's just me)

Surprisingly, I only got burned a few times... and even then not really. I simply resold the non-payment deals gone bad to other people that wanted them. (or eventually came here and raised holy freakin' hell for days on end, and then resold them)
