<prompt> Human: I am a 24 year old college grad with a 40 hour minimum wage job in WA. I dont make a lot of money but my rent is only 450month, so Im in a position where I can pay off several months in advance. I figure if I give him 1800 or 4 months now, Ive already paid half the required rent when you factor in standard 1stlast that I already paid. 1800 is a lot of money for me, but I calculated that Ill still be able to afford other essentials until I get paid on Friday. Ultimately Id like to pay off the entire years rent in the next few months, granting me some peace of mind and making my landlord happy so he gives me a good reference. I signed a one year lease with the landlord so everythings above board. I havent talked to the landlord about this yet although I cant see why he wouldnt be okay with getting his money ahead of schedule. I just wanted to check here first to see if there are any risks that I hadnt considered. Thanks for the advice.  <response>: Will your employer pay you in advance for the work you will do in the future? Then why pay your rent in advance? Pay it when its due.
