Question for tomorrow's newspaper

Not to be nosy, but after reading your answer to my question, i am curious how much money you transferred with the Neteller ATM card? Only asking because I don't want to get in trouble with the gov't for not reporting my winnings? I have won a few thousand and want to get it that way. Do you report your winnings? I think most people get away without. Thanks for your time man

To avoid everything you get checks for under 2,500 and cash them at check cashing places. the first time you may have to wait for it to clear a day or two. After that most places will cash them right away.

Thanks DubsPoet, but doesn't the check-cashing place ask for your SS#? Won't they report it? Thanks man

My dad worked in banks and for the Fed. Under 2,500 is safe everywhere. Minimum computer Irs alerts start at 2,500. I use two checking accounts and don't let them get over 10,000. Never buy anything in cash over 10,000. Check cashing joints don't report anything and computer tracking doesn't kick in until at least 2,500. If you need a lot of money plan it out with several checks.

Dub what about the new procedures going on now with homeland security???

I have heard things are tougher and they want to track everything...

I do not know if this is true or not just had it told to me...
