Paypal "gift" payments.......

[marko500]

I try to keep hobby money seperate, so I don't generally pull from our account. If I sell an RC or something locally I usually give a friend that has money in thier paypal account and they gift it to me. I could deposit that money and then add it to paypal from the bank, but like I said I try to not even pull from my account at all. If I buy RC stuff I usually use what's in my paypal account, or I don't but it. My wife and I both like it better that way. She doesn't concern herself with what I'm spending or reaping, and I don't feel like she is judging me for how I choose to spend on things that she doesn't understand.

Maybe I should try doing it this way. My wife lost her sense of humor for our rc hobby about 5 boats and about 6 cars ago. lol But I handle all the money and sometimes it's a real test of my will power to pass on some items I want/need so I can pay the bills first. Been working out good......most of the time.

That's needed. I mean what a convenient service to take advantage of. It would suck if paypal shut down. Id rather there be fees for transactions instead of high membership fees.

Oh no. That was a great feature. Sorry to hear it is going away.

Speaking of banks, you gotta love 'em. A business that SOLEY makes money because they happen to have MORE money than anyone else.....and then they run out of it, and we bail 'em out :)

Very wise Peter! I'm proud of you. Bar or coin?

Two 100 once bars Ray - Yes we have been watching silver for about a year now and current predictions are that it will more than triple in the next 24 months - This is the first time I have done anything like this so we shall see how accurate there predictions are . If it don't pan out I guess I will be running Fiegao's for the next ten years and not Lehners...........................

I've been watching the silver market for 30 years. I of course have no way to see the future, but do "think" it will go back into the $40-high $40 range.

I do not remember the fee.

But did have enough to cover the gift payment. So they didn't have to incur any fee's from taking money from my credit card.

I had a friend send me money as a gift today, no fees for him or I. I also "gifted" money to someone else...again, no fees for either party.

I wonder why they're charging you a fee...

Strange, maybe because my paypal account is a business account? Also the guy I sent the money to was overseas. Wonder whats going on?

over seas always will charge 3% i dont know why
and banks have rights to make of your money 9 times more so if you put 1000 in bank some one comes and barrows 10000 bank has rights to make money from nothing so bank will give him 10000 check
and now all banks will start to charge $10 a month for using their bank i been to bank and told me that last part about 10 dollars fees
