 1. Earn credit card rewards and perks Every month,

  • seems like a joke
  • this is just a way for marketers to get ahold of you
  • Don't need rewards for tracking my behavior. Need living wage and fair prices.


  2. Avoid wiping out your bank account if an emergency happens

  • Life is an emergency
  • Should we charge RHApr when someone is in need?
  • Vulture lately?


 3. Minimize risk and reduce payment hassles 

  • Debit cards or other e-payment do this without exorbitant fees like RHApr


 4. Make budgeting easier 

  • No
  • No one writes checks anymore
  • Debit cards and other forms of e-payment solve most of these


 5. Build credit

  • why? So you can have more credit. Circular. Stupid.

With your foot in the door you might convince them to add usage auditing and before you know it you are doing up front analysis on usage in front of your next project.

Velocity and Burn Rate Budget
