If the quiz is “Do you have what it takes to be a you-tuber?”, or something like that, then yes. If it is some corporate bullshit, the they should fuck off.

We can’t guarantee the person setting up the form designed it properly. A business requirement to only hire those who chose yes may have been implemented as a technical requirement to actually choose yes on the form.

I’ve setup forms like that before for other purposes. Depending on the system it’s way too easy to accidentally mark the wrong question as required or hide the wrong question if another question isn’t “true”

There is, nobody can be comfortable not knowing whether they’ll be able to afford rent next month.

No, but if those irregular paychecks are high enough, you may be able to create a reserve to work around it. TI’s how owning businesses work.

Sure but most jobs who would ask such a thing on the application probably aren’t the high paying kind.

I have no idea. I have never seen any job ask this and there is no context given in this post. May not be job application at all.

This answer assumes a state of affairs where everyone living from paycheck to paycheck should be normalized. I think this way of thinking buries a much deeper issue which is that owners of capital continue to squeeze non-owners of capital.
Let’s assume we address that problem and ask the question again.
I would say, that choosing a riskier but higher average source of compensation is a perfectly reasonable, personal choice for someone to make.
