I live in an apartment, which means that once a month, my roommates and I have to deal with the incredibly inefficient process of finding some actual checks, stamps, and envelopes, Venmo-ing rent to whoever has a checkbook handy, and mail in our rent to our apartment's management company. 

How has technology not fixed this? I can deposit checks online, I pay my bills with my computer, my face is my password for my bank — and yet rent is stuck in the same system it's been in since the invention of checkbooks. Maybe it's just an NYC thing? Do other people have fancy, digital rent systems? There should be an app for this.
