As far as i know when you stop paying your account goes dormant for a crertain period (maybe a month, dont remember exactly, but sure a month or more) and only after that period you loose your land and possessions. So a few days of delay won't hurt you too much. The only problem is that, as arwen sayd, in this kind of online environments it normally takes about a week to reactivate an expired account (only saw it done on other MMORPG, have no experience on SL), kind of an hassle, but better than loosing everything

You have (I think) a month to get the money in your account.

I know I was without money for about 26 days, and I never lost my land.
