I feel that there are three main ways to get caught - tell someone about your operation so they burn you, have crazy high power bills, and have unsupported or undocumentable income.

The first two are fixable, but the third requires creativity. I know this was posted before, with mixed results. but I am putting it out there again. Any thoughts on how to hide or account for cash-only income? I have some ideas but wanted to see what others were thinking.

Just practice good habits like living within your legitimate means and not ballin out on luxury items. Take a nice vacation every year and save the rest as cash in a safe or lockbox in your home or when/if it gets too big in a safety deposit box at the bank.

keep things small and you'll be way more inconspicuous

Recently I have seriously thought of Prepaid Visas, you dont have to show id to buy them, you can get them in 1000 dollar incriments, you can use them anywhere. Seems like the answer.

Interesting as I've given this much thought myself. What are some opinions on a safe, low key amount you can deal with in cash each month easily?

I'm thinking 5K would be about the tops, but would love to hear other thoughts.

My thoughts are paying things like gas, utilities, groceries, entertainment could eat up 5K rather inconspicuously.

Buying a used 4-6K car each year or two would help the blending in also.

Also purchasing as much as you can from a Craigslist type place for tools, and other general crap.

Oldgray was on the right path of what I do... I generally buy a car and sell it a few months later... money laundering aint free... but I really do take closely what was mentioned first... living to nessesity! Treat yourself to vacation, do some house/yard work, pay for gas, upgrade your automobile (they never ask!), or deposit box at bank!

It's always nice to have liquid assets! God Forbid and assuming the WORST, those liquid funds laying around will also serve as an investment on a lawyer incase you get in a jam! It's all green to them!

It's mainly be smart! Anaylize everything that could be questioned and could go wrong... I ALWAYS through out budgeting, moves, etc... ASSUME AND PREPARE FOR THE WORST, AND HOPE FOR THE BEST! That way, your ready for the law of what can go wrong, WILL go wrong!

But honestly, if you keep low, only one or two TRUSTED movers for yourself, your really managing an underground biznass! You work hard for product and quality so treat yourself to dinners, vacation, etc... Just not too crazy!

Another thing that I do slowly is I've started my own business with a legitimate license, tax ID number etc... It can be a car washing service, mobile services, at home business... be smart and creative... majority of my clients are false and out of country according to my books and invoices. So I let the business build net profits and keep it in the business acct and pay myself a salary, pay all my taxes, fees, and so on... I won't tell ya exactly how it's done... but think outside the box... think Al Capone... The street gang Satan Disciples who are all about Free Enterprise... Think Mafia... If you creative enough, you can hide it!!!

Yeah but you have to give your social out to get the cards activated, so try again, well you can load it up then use it and load it up again, but say your being watched they have a paper trail to how much you've made then they start taking your shit, so buy an education because they can't take that away.

buy collectibles/antiques/limited editions or anything else that's guaranteed to appreciate in value and flip 'em a year or two later. yeah, you'd have to declare that income, but at least it's legitimate and the appreciation factor helps make up for it.

Get a job with a tipped income, and be the luckiest person in the company when it comes to tips (but don't overdo it). That way, having hundreds of dollars in cash is a normal thing, and depositing hundreds in cash is a regular routine.

See if you can prepay a bailbonds office... because you can never predict when you might need to get out.

before going big you should contact a layer and talk with him, so this way you already got someone on your side if anything should ever go wrong.
