And give every client £10k credit and never, ever conduct any kind of credit check. Ever.

180 days is a lot more than 10K credit, but I agree with the sentiment; the last ****er I worked for should have been made to pay up front. I got about half the cash before he went bust in a frenzy of fraud and deception. Actually, he didn't go bust but the Ltd he used to pay the contractors was bankrupted and he went off with the money.
