Donations

I COULD add those options, but the problem is, I really would prefer not to use PayPal, FRN's, etc...



I know if you have an e-bullion account, you can simply walk into any Bank of America branch location with cash or a money order, fill out an out of state deposit form (instructions in your e-bullion account), and make the deposit. You will then own gold which can be transferred electronically.



The same can be done with E-Liberty Dollars, but you will have to locate a local exchange agent who can transfer the funds to your Liberty Dollar account.



There are quite a few options for funding an e-gold account as well, I can do some research and try to find some exchange agents that are able to fund e-gold/e-bullion accounts via credit cards, ach, paypal, etc.



Part of the reason I would prefer to stay away from using the banking system for any donations is the privacy factor, both for myself as well as the member making the contribution. The three options provided will accomplish that quite well.



Also, there is the issue of the fees for using the other services. While it is free to have a paypal account, I would rather not see the 3-4 percent they deduct from every donation going to support the banking industry.



It was my thinking that those of you who appreciate this site enough to consider making a contribution would already be weaning themselves from FRN's, or would consider making a step in that direction. Maybe this could serve as a "exercise" for those who have not yet made the first step toward investing currency that has real value.



However, if there is enough interest, I may consider paypal or some other method that will allow direct payment with the use of FRN's.



Any thoughts from the members?
