Is It Proper To Borrow Money From Your Boss To Pay Rent by stevnwigw1(op): 9:01am On Jul 02, 2022
I am on the verge of making a decision, I need advice, my landlord is on my neck, as his rent for the last year running remains 50k, I have paid 100k, as the rent for a self-contain is 150k in my area in Owerri. Now he has given me two weeks to pay the balance of 50k or risk getting a quiet notice, as he said their quiet notice is alien to the law because the area is a student area. I want to ask my boss at my work place to help me with the money when he pays he can deduct it or I will give him back. I met some of my coworkers and they advised me to meet our boss, is it right to do so?

The real question is how long do you want to keep living above your means.

There is nothing wrong borrowing, so long you pay fast to earn respect

If your pay can cover the balance.

Just talk to your landlord and give him a specific date for repayment.

Omo.. I used to take loans from my previous company.. that didn't end well with me. I became naturally submissive and over loyal to an extent that I didn't even notice when I started being maltreated..
Just wait it out if possible.

If your landlord refuses.. go to your boss .. after this.. Don't ask your boss anything again

It's salary advance...
If he's got money on him, he can lend you..

Approach him for some advancement or approach your bank for salad loans. At worst, explain to your landlord and have an agreement on how you intend to pay.

3 month of your salary is supposed to be able to cover your rent. If it can't then change apartment to one that does.

Well it's no big deal depending who is your boss and the relationship between both of you.

With some boss pls don't try it it's better you beg or borrow from outsider to pay your rent than involving him or her.
