pay something at night is bad luck?

We don't have that superstition in my country. People are glad whenever they get are paid debts, be it day or night!

Yes, i have heard of this my friend. But there is no good explanation as to why is this so, so i don't believe this.

True; my country has its share of these beliefs. Some people do not spend on Fridays believing that Goddess Lakshmi should not go out of the house on Friday because then poverty will strike[Lakshmi is the Goddess of wealth and prosperity and money means Lakshmi].

Hello my friend Shavkat Ji, Well, there are many more such believes our side too. But I do support this as a bad oman to invest money/pay some on after dusk/night. Night is supposed to be rest time and not for shopping etc. so tehre is no question of payments. If paying at nights to someone may indicates wrong relationship/affairs. DSo restriction has been said as superstitious beliefs. May God bless You and have a great time

When I was a child I believe with those superstitious belief that my grand parents followed since then. But when I grow old and learn something not right with those belief. I set my mind not to follow those belief anymore because those particular belief they believed is not really connected on what facts they say about. Like what you said that pay at night is bad luck. If we analyze the connection on why we have a bad luck to debt at night. That reason is not acceptable...the truth when you pay your debt at night will set you free from obligation. In my opinion why those belief exist was that people in first century are only rely on nature to predict what is going to happen to assume something. They are scientifically proven or even if some are true with those belief. It doesn't mean they are all true...

I can't say we have that here, I can't even recall any here in my country. I think because Canada is so diverse and different cultures, we don't have them here.

WE have one that we do no kind of work on SUnday but the woman still have to cook!

I don't know of any superstitions in regards to paying debt. The closest I can think of is if you find a coin on the ground and depending if it's heads or tails to if it's good luck or bad.

I've never heard that paying debts at night is bad luck. I 'd say that the bad luck rightly comes from NOT paying your debts.

I haven't heard this superstition. We have many here as well.

Nope, no such superstition when it comes to paying bills for us. It really is a good thing that I don't have this kind of a superstitious belief like that because if I did I would be afraid that my bills would never end up getting paid because I tend to be the person that doesn't think about paying my bills until it is late in the afternoon or evening. This is actually one of the reasons that I feel like being able to pay bills through the internet is such a beautiful thing.

Hi Shavkat: This is actually the first time I hear about this one. But as you mention, these are just "superstitious beliefs", for some reason, probably tradition or just a bad situation coming from the past, people start to think that doing something would bring them bad luck. People sometimes could make their lives unhappy because of these superstitions that tell them they have bad luck. ALVARO

No we have online payments and I can make them anytime, although I do them in the mornings usually. What is said to happen if you pay your debts at night?

Maybe the person who first began this superstition had a bad experience of some sort when they paid a debt after dark. More trouble seems to happen in the wee hours of the night, perhaps because people can hide in the dark. In addition, that is when many people have time on their hands and cannot get to sleep, and make poor choices.

hi thats one I have never heard of. Here if a black cat runs in front of you thats bad luck ;spill salt and you must toss salt over y our shoulder to stop bad luck. Also walking under a ladder is bad lu ck too. I just do not believe in silly superstitions myself.

Never heard of this before.. The way I look at it is, if I pay it off today/tonight, I will sleep better tonight because it will be off of my mind. Why put it off for another day when you can take care of it right away.... I took and paid off a few things recently becuase I don't like oweing on my mind.

No. I don't believe such thing. I mean not all superstitious belief is true. How can be that bad luck? If we have faith in God, I think all this superstitious belief would be gone and so, if we have strong faith in God, well, paying debts at night would not be a bad luck.

I've heard about this but I don't believe in it. If I owe something I strive to pay it on or before due date anytime of the day even at night time when situation demands that I should do it.

Hi friend, no we don't have this kind of superstition, we have lot of superstitious quote and beliefs in our country, but this one is new for me.

We also have a lot of superstitious beliefs in my country. Since I'm not a superstitious person so I don't believe in this but I respect others beliefs too. My grandparents believe about walking under ladder,putting your shoes on a table, opening an umbrella in your home and if a black cat walks in front of you they consider that as bad luck.
