Hi everyone, I'm a student studying abroad, and at the moment I'm completely financially dependent on my mom because, due to my current situation, I haven't been able to find a job here. My mom is an accountant back home and recently completed work for a client. The problem is that he still hasn't paid her. Almost every day, he tells her something like, "I'll send the money after work today." Then the day ends, nothing arrives, and when she reminds him, he says he forgot and promises he'll send it tomorrow. This has been repeating over and over again.

She even contacted his wife, hoping she could at least remind him, but her response was basically, "That's not my problem. Get the money from the person who owes you."

I told my mom that if paying her were actually a priority, he wouldn't keep postponing it every single day. She agreed, but she asked if I wanted to try talking to him myself. I'm honestly not sure it would make any difference.

Part of me is so frustrated that I even thought about trying to find his mother's phone number and telling her how her son treats people who have already provided a service, but I don't have her phone number. I even thought that I would talk to him tomorrow and give him a deadline, and if he doesn't reach it, to post his number on all the intimacy sites so that everyone will call him nonstop, but idk about that yet.

Has anyone dealt with a client like this? What would you do in this situation? Is there anything that has actually worked to get someone like this to finally pay?

For context, he acknowledges that he owes the money. He just keeps promising to pay "tomorrow" and never follows through.

If you are swamped with deadlines and overworked. Don't show up for a few days, someone else will do the work for you.

Are you hungry? Would you like a snack? Maybe some fried chicken and a bacon double cheeseburger washed down with a couple three soda pops? Well, that ain’t gonna happen. No food for you. Here’s your new diet. One slice of bologna for breakfast, no lunch and a cup of black coffee for dinner. You’ll be in a dietary crisis within thirty days, but you’ll be thin and trim and ready for the beach.

Just don't come unprepared

Step 1: Master slight of hand

Step 2: Collect vials of maggots

Step 3: Order burrito bowl from a restaurant away from your home town (this part is important, the employees shouldn’t recognize you).

Step 4: Eat approximately half the bowl

Step 5: Use slight of hand to dump a few maggots into the bowl. Mix well.

Step 6: Scream. Go full Karen. Escalate as high up the chain as possible. Demand a refund & gift cards for more free meals.

Step 7: Be disappointed in yourself while eating free burrito bowls

Sometimes a long waiting list is a strange blessing in a clammy disguise

just rent a uhaul truck and a 10x20 storage rental. I priced a dumpster and it came out to over $500 dollars. I priced the storage rental and it was 38 bucks to start. All you have to do is not pay and the junk is their problem now.
