I have been so lucky so far with this. I had a meeting a few days ago with a client who is in trouble. I have been bartering with him since his restaurant has the best food in the area. He actually said he wanted to settle up with me rather than risk me not getting my fair share back! But I do share your concerns and welcome your advice - thanks. -----Original Message----- From: dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Jim Lawrence Sent: Wednesday, January 13, 2010 5:18 PM To: 'Discussion of Hardware and Software issues' Subject: Re: [dba-Tech] Once and for all time: server backups Watch out for potential bankruptcies, or client's holding off paying invoices... In some cases I have put a client on a monthly payment plan so to stretch out the some large bills. The clients are happy, you get paid (at least most) and if they do get through the dip they are your client for life. Jim
