I just read an article on Ryan Carson’s blog where he complaints about the insane payments terms standards in the European countries. I wasn’t surprised to see that in Italy we have the longest average that is 90 days from the invoice because I did some consultancy time ago and I was usually payed 3 months after my clients received my invoices. What is awfull is that Italy is the European country with the longest payment time ever!
It comes to no surpise that the young Italians prefer a “stable” work in a company instead of freelancing or entrepreneurship!
