I have never done that but I see others doing that because they need to pay their bills and are out of money or pay medical expenses

This reminds me the time when l was employed. I would always take salary advance for meeting up with some issues.

I've never asked for an advance. A lot of companies have partnered up with these apps that allow you to borrow your paycheck before it deposits, but I try to avoid the lifestyle of living paycheck to paycheck where that would be necessary.

I tried this if this is an urgent matter. In my view, it is inevitable to have this option in life. It is a part of surviving.

Salary advance is something that someone could ask anytime provided that it's being deducted from the salary at the end of month.

I don't like to ask for salary advance and like to have options ready that can help me in case I need money urgently

Whenever gets a financial emergency, the best way to sort out that one when you are working is to apply for a salary advance with your salary bank.

When I used to be in financial challenges like when I needed money for food and transportation, I used to get salary advances.

Its fine to even get the salary in advance even if you don't really need it but I guess we should ask only when we need

Money is never enough for everyone even for the working classes. Most of them tend to take salary advance loans.

There is no cash advance at my work place. But we the employees can apply it in our university cooperative.

This is a good option even if we don't utilize and it should be used when you need money for something urgent and I think most companies allow this.

That's true. I might not like it as a person but it could be really helpful to solve small emergency situations.

It's a good option and you need to see if your company is providing this option or not and I feel all company should provide this.

I have never asked for my salary in advance. I work online and they pay us on a specific date usually by the end of the month. So one can't request for payment ahead of time.

I have asked and gotten salary advance a couple of times. The last time I asked, I needed it to repair my toilet installations quickly.
