Are these methods valid or are they Faulted

[David Merrill]

The Lesson Plan I offer is continually redacted to:

1) proper identity
2) record forming
3) redeem lawful money

I have been busy with some very interesting things in the brain trust and beyond. Sorry that your thread sat unattended for a month.

I have not read the Handbook you describe. I feel compelled to write a book someday soon. I feel that I should "arrive" first and the journey just keeps going and going...

I concur with David. Those who follow such (1,2,3) tend to have the most success and sooner.

Yes David, you should write that book! Even if it's only those 3 chapters. I would buy a case-full.

Freed, rather than BofA it sounds like you are waffling. Just do it. You're entering a private contract, set the terms.

Do you have authority or not?

I disagree with your: when spending lawful money, no sales tax is allowed,
A vendor is allowed to ask for whatever he wants, including taxes that may not be owed.
