Rent

Three college students, down on their luck and in rent arrears, plotted, schemed, and grafted away night-after-night in an effort to avoid having their rental lease terminated and keep themselves off the streets.

With the debt piling up and the landlord on their tail, for rent arrears, Brian Chesky, Joe Gebbia, and Nate Blecharczyk, found themselves between a rock and a hard place.

With no immediate options available to them to cover their costs, the three of them got creative and decided to rent out an airbed in their apartment to budget-conscious tourists or those simply in need of a safe place to lay their heads.

Not bad for three down on their luck guys struggling to pay rent, a little over a decade ago, right?
