Here's the thing... 2-3 weeks to get the cheque. $5 to deposit each one.. 20 days for it to clear.. While you're waiting, the company can go under and/or the cheque bounces etc.

Something like epass, get the cash immediately, drive to the ATM and withdraw it. Course the timing of this fiasco was fantastic in terms of money having just been deposited from sponsors.

There's risks with absolutely everything. The faster I can get the cash in my hands and into my own bank the better and epass was great for that. If a sponsor was going to fuck you, you knew right away as opposed to having to wait several weeks.
