    Seems pretty reasonable if the chunk really is obscene.

    Bank of America charges me that much every month just for thinking about my acct.

    If $50 USD/month is to much, then you aren't hiding an obscene chunk of change

    If you are serious then talk to a good tax accountant/lawyer as the evidence of a 'legal' method is as important as the method itself. I don't know what exactly the penalty in the US are if the IRS discovers an a hidden, taxable chunk, but in Canada the penaltys start at multiples of the money and go up to jail time from there.

    Whooops, the initial set up fee ranges from like $700-a few thousand....the $50 a month is what they charge just to send you statements

    In that case, may I suggest a little country by the name of mattress.

    How 'bout a mattress?


    Edit:

    Guess I'm too slow!

    ask Dick Chaney.

    or Tom Cruise...I think he busted some Cayman Is. folks during his law internship.
