3. Who spent the rent? “ I’m worried that if my rent was paid into my bank account it would disappear into my overdraft.” “ I have had a bit of a gambling problem and I prefer to have my rent paid directly to keep temptation out of my way.” “ My husband lost his job, we couldn’t keep up with the mortgage and lost our house. Now we are tenants I would prefer if we had the rent paid without having to worry about it”.
