    Besides maybe being late -- I'll take money in any form that allows me to eventually spend it. I know it's kind of a pain in the ass when you're not paid in the format you request or is easiest for you. I pay all my freelancers with ACH payments so they get it clears basically in 24 hours once the transfer is made. But, I find when you start putting diva fine print in your contracts, it can end up turning off potential clients.

    Here's an example: An agency I used to work for added a bunch of crap in their statement of work. After that there was a severe dropoff in job awards from both new clients and clients we've worked with before. Many more of those jobs were being awarded to somebody else with less baggage. And, no matter what we wrote in there they paid how they wanted to pay, and when they wanted to do it if the jobs were awarded to us.
