how do I transfer money to the lady back home?

When I set up my direct deposit, I set up $100 a check into one account and the rest into my main ckg account. You should be able to do this with your employer.

 

be careful with that. if for some reason you get less than $100 one week..and you know it happens sometimes, for reasons like going home 6 days, etc....then guess what? Whole check goes into your lady's account! None for you!

 

i second pay pal also, it's free as long as you say it's a gift and it goes straight from your account to her pay pal account, and you can also use it to get cheap stuff off of ebay also. no offense but if you're not using paypal then you're "slippin on your pimpin". so many people use it and the good thing is if your buy something from someone you dont know i.e. craigs list/ebay then it's a business transaction and pay pal protects you from fraud.

 

I'd just send a money order, that way you have a paper trail of how much money you sent her.

 

Guess I never thought of that. I've never had any checks that small, even when I'm home, although I see how it could happen. Now you have me worried, lol.
Paypal would be a good idea too

 

Dude if you're not married or have children with this woman RUN AWAY! Geeze Louise if she's that insecure that she doesn't realize that you have to EAT, PAY TOLLS, SCALES, OIL and accessories, BUY A BOOK , RENT a MOVIE then you are in for a whole world of BS while you're driving! Way back in the late eighties I moved a female in and that was the end of a nice relationship! She became so freaking jealous that she had a fit over a sci fi book I had that had a female on the cover in a I guess latex space suit and she went ballistic! She was out of my house that night!

It's going to cost you about $150 a week just to eat out on the road plus other costs as shown above. Either set her up a checking account at the same bank you are with and then transfer her allowance each week or have a checking and savings account and let her have the savings account and transfer funds that way but you can transfer funds through you account to any account you want. Just DO NOT USE A FREE WIFI to do so! They are hacker traps and not pleasant to get hacked by. Been there done that and I bought a broadband card.

As for her fear that you are using coin operated baby dolls out here inform her that they are now costing over $75 for a "hurricane special" and that is a stupid price to pay just to unzip your fly and you'll just wait to come home for something more fun! Just word it right! Besides you're paying more for it at home and not using it anyway! LOL Sorry guy but I've been out here for a few years! That cost just isn't in the books as it's NOT worth that much for a few minutes!

 

Just get a divorce. The judge will take care of all the money logistics!

 

First and foremost, what Rollover said. Words to live by. You just don't need this type of hassle when you are on the road.

Maybe he was married before.

Man you really can probably "do better" than this. What I'm seeing here is a disaster in your future if you don't get away from her. Sorry to be so blunt, but there it is, take it for what its worth.

I was thinking along the same lines, or even a personal check directly to her bank account. But that is cumbersome and both the check and money order can get lost in the mail. If not totally lost, then delayed for an unreasonable time.

Uh-huh. He's not married to her, but if he does marry her, undoubtedly your advice will come in handy on down the road.
