Would you rather get paid your entire salary in one lump-sum OR get paid little by little throughout the year?

Good question, I think that I'd actually enjoy getting one big payment. I could invest it upfront and probably make a lot more than I would have if I got little by little.

I'll take the paychecks rather than one lump sum; this isn't the lottery :)

My experience with earnings payments - they only come at the end-of-period ...
NO way - would I want to wait - for a full year of work - to be completed - prior to any payment !!! Some contract jobs - actually work that way - No project success - no partial payments !

I think I like having paychecks throughout the year. Though I've never received a huge lump-sum of money before, so who knows! Lol I wonder how it would affect taxes.
