<prompt> Human: I just moved into my own apartment for the first time. As a special I get a month of free rent. Would it be unwise to use it on the first month? I should be able to cover rent it will just be tight. However if I used it now I would be able to have a bit of savings. Would it be smarter to save it just incase?  <response>: I see some people telling you to keep it for use later, so a cautionary tale. We had received some concessions when renewing a lease. Well the complex changed hands shortly thereafter and the new company wanted to claim ignorance of the deal. After a lot of tooth and nail we got the concession, but the point being: Dont count on the complex to do the right thing and keeping their word.
