I threw in, how about $5k every two weeks? She said, "that's fine, but I really won't limit you on how much you bring in - seriously." I said, (jokingly) "20k a week it is!" and she said "yeah that's fine too! It doesn't bother me at all. We ship coins all the time. Just pile em on!"
She won't file any reports because I told her what/why/how I'm doing this. She's also in her late 20's/early 30's and isn't so concerned with the costs of shipping coins.

I actually started with $750. The manager was really nice and was talking to me. I was up front with everything, even showed her the usmint website so she could do it herself. She got pretty excited because she wants to go on a trip.

Thanks for sharing! Dang, I'm jealous! I'm sweating over tiny coin deposits (roll-eyes) (big grin).

Not that I do it with coins, but on my everyday normal purchases, as soon as I buy something, I do an online bill pay in order to stay current and not miss anything so I can have a zero bill each month.

<snuck> Where have you been? I don't have the authority to speak for THE mrpickles, and maybe he'll weigh in to this entertaining/annoying thread, but you should keep up with you're doing. And, don't worry about mrpickles. You have a good thing going, jdivernere.
Do you have photos of your activity to upload for us to view? It would be helpful to discern your credibility, no offense. Yes/no?

The problem with waiting for the bill and then paying is that it hits your credit utilization factor which will lower your score.

deant, what exactly are you doing with the coin thing, may I ask? You're savvy, so us youngins would like to hear your latest spin. Thanks.

. Why don't you spend some time perusing the coin site? You'll find the answer to your question. Advice: better line up how you'll do the deposits. Good luck. Use your CPA head, this is a dangerous game. Let us know your experience.
