Has anyone considered...

[Paul Rodgers]

Using their computer repair business as a front?

 

[Mainstay]

That's why our sticks of RAM come in little boxes that cost by the ounce.

 

[pcpickup]

Not being a overly cash based business makes it difficult to use as a front. A car wash on the other hand, as they showed in Breaking Bad makes a good front.

 

[Altster]

We are - UHaul

What kind of business are you seeking, Paul?

 

[citizensmith]

Some of the pizza techs out there are an afront to the real ones

You could use it as a cover for the NSA - bug phones and computers while "fixing" them

Thought about making book, but my wife would kill me, then divorce me.

Before I start I need to say that I am not using drugs, a drug dealer, or giving serious consideration to selling anything illegal. Just in case any 3 letter agencies or potential employers are reading.

But I had a discussion with my brother about the logistics of it. The deal is arranged, someone brings a tower in for "repair", pop the side off and leave the drugs in the case, customer picks up at end of the day and pays.

You report the income and pay taxes. You can accept credit cards. As far as the government is concerned the money is clean.

Again this is a discussion. If I was serious I wouldn't be posting this on a crawled forum using what might be my real name.

Ha!
....And they reckon those little packets are "silica gel"

 

[AndyM]

Sod the drugs and silica gel... the more sticks of RAM I put into a system the more gold there is in there

I can't say too much but I am pretty certain one computer repair place I know is a front for something else. You don't get to drive an £80k car by removing viruses.

 

[pcpickup]

Well, this is relevant..

that's completely doable -- business expense

Yeah, a buncha girls giving massages!

STILL working on my accounts.
I'm just wondering how my accountant is going to view payments to "Call That Girl"

I feel a story coming on.

 

[callthatgirl]

Once someone asked me to drive to Denver and load up a bunch of old computers with weed, since my truck was decorated, if I got stopped with a bunch of computers and the weed was in coffee or something, I wouldn't seem suspect. It sounded like a good idea, but I don't smoke pot and I'm not going to prison for someone else's profit. Now if it was my profit...haha

 

[callthatgirl]

Bertie! I get calls from wives asking about who I am and why their hubbies paid me a large amount of money. I tell them and we share a good laugh...but WTF, if I was a hooker service, I'd be more than $129 an hour, please.

Ahem, yes, I'm thinking a similar conversation may occur here too!

...what do hookers normally go for?

 

[callthatgirl]

I don't know but I know if I was a hooker, I'd charge more than $129 an hour.
