Is there any effective way to pay back a loan (98 thousand dollars) and keep it under the radar? There is no wrongdoing with this personal debt. But my friend, a privacy nut, does not want to use FRNs- this is the only way I know to keep these things very private.

What would be the most discreet method of payment if not cash? He does not like the gov. and/or others to intrude... He also told me that he would need to justify taking that amount of cash out of his own bank account-tax free capital gains were deposited into this account.

I told him he could write a personal check to pay his debt to an individual (a common friend) since it has enough money in it. He said the people from Homeland Security would like to know more about their lives.... No matter if nothing wrong is done.

Is he paranoid? He is a hard working, noble man.
