and in a few instances gals have accepted a check from me as well.

On occasion I've done WU, Paypal and Greendot.

Sometimes I've paid deposits so the amount needed at arrival wasn't that much.

I've been invited numerous times for overnights and weekends and only  had to pick up tabs for food and libations.

If there are any casinos in the area, you can always wire as much money as you would like to the casino cage. That's one place where a few grand won't raise a single eyebrow.

The only time carrying an excessive amount of cash is when traveling internationally, and then only if you don't declare it. I have had TSA agents "discover" that I was carrying as much as fifty grand on me once, they never even raised an eyebrow. Of course I was leaving Las Vegas. lol

I had her come to me, the day she arrived here, I went to my bank and took out the donation and handed it to her like an hour later.  From that point on it was her responsibility.

Planes are not a problem.  I carried 12k on a domestic flight once.  I was nervous as hell, cause thats alot of money to me to be just traveling with.

That's only going to work if she is willing to give you her full real name.  Of course, if she is flying with you she has most likely already done that so it may work.

I've always just used 100 bills.

There is one high end gal who claims to only accept Kuggeerrands.

Honest.

PM me and I'll name her.

OK, so this thread's not for everybody, but there has to be those out there with the same issue.

Are you comfortable carrying $5k-20k in cash for a multi-night adventure?  I know there is some FAA or other rule about carrying more than $10k on a plane, but in general that's more than I like to carry around (and I bet the provider isn't so keen on carrying that around for a few days once we meet), so I'm wondering how you get around it?

For a few girls that I know their civy name, I've paid with money orders (1k increments so they can be cashed without a big deal), but that's after we've seen each other a number of times.  I'll mail a deposit in advance and either bring the balance in cash or MO.  I also had one girl give me an account number to wire funds to (I'd never share that info, but she seemed comfortable).  Paypal is an option, but the folks at Paypal tend to wise up pretty quick with larger $ amounts being transferred.  (I did it a few times and it was nice to use my cc and earn airline points)

This works if we know each other well, but is difficult with newer relationships where we have only seen each other 4-5 time and we aren't comfortable sharing too many details.

Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.

give it to the provider in a brown paper bag!  LOL!  I've never done a weekend trip (yet) with a provider but the overnights I have done have been in cash big bills.  Its tricky for a newer relatonship, but I would think a deposit to start and the rest when you meet.  

I would not recommend a trip with someone you have never physically met!

Or you are sooo good that they pay you, right?

being a premature ejaculator, mama's boy and morbid substance abuser, an overnight would be more than I could bare.  15 minutes is too much, as i am done in 7 then my nerves kick in.

Only did it once though, expensive, but good. So, I arrange a 10 day and 9 night with a provider that does not usually do overnights. I manage to pay her a total of $7000 and tipped her $500 after the entire arrangement. Again, some may think that that price is low, but with my salary, that is considered high. That's about $777 per day, and remember, she doesn't usually do overnights. It was a vacation, so, I think she enjoyed it.

Okay, first day, she arrived, I gave her $500 in the afternoon, at night time, I gave her another $500. The next day, she went and deposit it to her bank. She knows that if she comes back, she would have guaranteed money. And, she did. That is what I did. After the six day, I told her since I already pay her $6000, and owe her $1000, and she owed me two more nights, I will pay her and tip her after the tenth day. She trusted me I guess, and agreed. Again, that's big money, so, I felt that she wanted to be compensated and felt obligated to satisfy her requirements.

That's just how I did it. Oh, also, if you go to the bank, they have no problem giving you $3000 cash, but if its $3001 (a dollar more), then it will have to be approved by a processor or manager in the bank. That part only took about ten minutes, and you should have your donation. Also, from my experience, I withdrew $8000 that day (half in $50 bills, and the other half in $100 bills), let me tell you, you need more than an envelope to carry that out. Its like a stack, almost wide as width of a computer keyboard. So, that is something you might want to consider as to how you will conceal it.

I take cash with me for multi day trips.  I've also flown to Vegas with 20k in cash with no trouble.

and as long as you cashed out in under 10k increments, you wouldn't tun any heads either.  I knew if I stuck around on this board long enough it would be worth my while.

....and all first dates such as this, require a fifty percent deposit; no exceptions.  Once I am comfortable with the gentleman, and he with me, he usually just sends my gift in advance of our date.  My question is:  you have visited with someone four or five time, and aren't comfortable sharing information?  You mean to tell me that ladies travel with you, and they don't know your true identity?  That is scarey on many levels.

I recently took a check from a regular. He gave me a deposit on PayPal and then he paid the balance with a check. We never discussed the check, prior to our date. I wish we had. When he gave me the check, I thought perhaps I'd been taken advantage of. I deposited it in my bank and I've had no problems. So far so good.

Pay me in cash and take me to the bank. Then, lets party like rock stars. LOL. Hell, I may even buy you dinner on Day 3.

Overnight - cash is king. Multi day travel - if the Provider is not comfortable giving me her name so I can get a money order, then I'm not comfortable traveling with her. Plus odds are I'm buying the tickets so I know her name.

i have an armored travel suitcase on rollers that i use to transport bars of gold or platinum.

sometimes i partially discount the bullion with bouillabaise... home made... worth its weight in noble metals.  

I wouldn't dream of using a personal check, but a cashiers checks could be an option for a large amount.  
I think you would need to talk to the provider so she understands what the method of payment will be.  

Any thoughts?

she then gets a pass as being smart enough to be interesting company.

Most of the time I bring along enough Benjamins in the little white envelopes to cover my tab, but I have a couple of friends that I know well and I make a direct deposit into their business account at the bank....As long as you have all the account info it is a easy process.

I actually prefer to make the deposit not because I am worried about me carrying the cash but I am concerned about the lady on the trip home. It is easier to cut a purse and run than to pick my wallet.

Usually. On occasion cash.

......I have been a courtesan/traveling companion, for over ten years, and have never needed, or wanted reviews.  I prefer to stay UTR.
