Deposits became my safety net after a freelance payment fail

I got stiffed on a big job last month, which was a wake-up call. From now on, I'm getting money before I start any work.

Always thought deposits were rude but that safety net line changed my mind.

Noticed the same thing with people renting out gear or even planning events. It's like we all learned the hard way that trust isn't a payment method. I mean, a simple 50% down stops so much headache before it even starts.

My deposits saved my butt when a client ghosted halfway through.
