He said he has to use flex or pay late fees. I’m curious what the alternative to flex is that forces him to pay late fees and why paying a few days earlier somehow doesn’t work to avoid fees. Just seems weird to me, but I’ve never been in that situation.
How do you pay early if something has happened and you don’t have the money? Not everyone can get mommy and daddy to do an instant wire transfer when things go wrong.
You’re supposed to have a 6month emergency fund built up. I just wanted to know what the alternative to flex pay was but apparently I didn’t ask that in the proper way. Sorry
You are also supposed to have wages that keep up with the cost of living, A non us medical system, 65% of americans not living paycheck to paycheck, and a democratic system with more then two choices.
But you have to live in the world you live in and not a fantasy.
I’m not privileged. I work hard 6 days a week and try to save money and pay my rent before other frivolous spending like snacks and energy drinks. I understand we are all struggling and making sacrifices. But I also know that some stuff comes first and rent is one of those things. Avoiding paying $300 in fees seems like a good thing to do and I would proba ly prioritize it.
Short answer: late stage capitalism
Long answer: Because they don’t have enough money to make rent on time and the associated fees are less than the late fees. Being poor is expensive.
I just moved from a shithole place that used and promoted Flex. The alternative was $300 late fees.
Pay earlier to avoid fees?
Do you tell deaf people to just hear as well?

Brilliant, thanks!
I’m so grateful that big brain lent a fraction of their vast intelligence to think of us simple folk.
I’m genuinely curious why you can’t pay earlier…
Yeah I don’t think you’ve ever had to earn your own money.
I don’t appreciate being called a liar but I have nothing to prove to you. Hope you have a nice day
Because of a lack of funds… How is that difficult for you to understand? Are you this privileged?
