How are you paid without a bank account? I'd be really interested in hearing how you manage that physically.


Cash primarily, though I cash checks at non-chain pawn shops as needed. I've been getting lucky in the last year or so with trading goods and services- such as covering my hosting fees by proofreading/script doctoring/ghostwriting for others, etc. Even lawncare for groceries in the funner months. It is not easy, but I watched Turk182 waaay too much when I was a kid.
