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.
