>> No.411631

You can't. I mean the best way for a ''small'' sum like that would be laundering it through a business, but you probably don't have one.

Just use it for basic expenses like food, clothing, electronics, etc. but don't go buying $600 wines and $4000 mac pros and risk getting the attention of the tax man.

It'll be slow, but you could eventually use it all up whilst saving most of your income (you can't save ALL of it, or it'll look strange) if you're not completely retarded.

The government always tried to get their hands on inheritance, even when a will is in place and all with specific instructions.

Buy or create a business and then cook the books. It'll take a while to legit all the money and some will be lost in operating costs but eventually you'll have your money in the bank. A good example is how Walter laundered his money in breaking bad, because that is legitimately an example of how criminals launder their money.

I've researched money laundering extensively as part of my degree, ask me anything and if I help maybe donate some to me (still a poor student).

Okay but that's difficult in a sense because my earnings are not illegitimate in the sense that in robbing or dealing drugs to aquire them and more along the lines of not fully declaring earnings.
I currently have a business but if I were to do everything legitimately I would still be years away from acquiring these savings.

Also I'm not sure if you're based in the UK or not so this may not apply. but I've never met a student in the UK that was poor for any reason other than their own negligence.

I take it you need the money now then. An idea would be to buy up bitcoins and then sell them a second or so later. Then just bs to the government that you had the btc on an old hard drive. As far as I know btc or untaxable right now.

Also, yes I am from the uk. Am I poor because of my own negligence? No. My parents earn over £60k a year put together and that puts me in the lowest bracket of free money. That means that my loan doesn't even cover my accommodation costs whilst I am at uni. So I'm only a poor student because unfortunately; I need to eat as well. If it's anyone's negligence it would be my parents and their own debt problems which mean they can't give me anything to help pay for university. I'd rather they earnt less than £25k a year tbh because then I'd be around 5k better off per year (my uni gives generous bursaries to most students).

I did, yeah. I'm going into my second year this November. There were unfortunately certain rules regarding reporting my parents income and I ended up having to tell student finance. I wanted to apply as an independent student because my parents said they wouldn't give me jack shit but for that you need to have not been in contact with your parents for a year prior to applying for your loan.

It really pisses me off that despite the fact that they are in some debt of their own (minor and will be paid off by the end if the year), they drive their respective sports cars and wear a Rolex each while I'm starving at uni and living off of less than £15 a week. I seriously resent them so much; they know I'm struggling too but neither of them seem to give a fuck and go 'lol that's student life' despite the fact I know people that go clubbing 4 nights a week because their loan lets them.

I was working a full time job at a nightclub and them going to university the next morning. Before I came home for the summer I went to the docs and was diagnosed with all sorts of shit going wrong with me. Now I'm back here I've sold all my old shit (so all I own now is my laptop and my clothes) and applied for twenty jobs in the last week. Unfortunately my parents decided to move to the middle of bumfuck nowhere so there aren't many jobs going around. The ones I applied to are 30 mins away driving and I can't afford a car.

I'm fucked gentlemen, and the people I have to blame are good old mum and dad. Even charities I write to begging for grants tell me to fuck off and essentially check my privilege; even though it's my parents who are the rich ones and not me.

You switching IP there OP?
Also the £ means British Pounds so assumingly you are needing tips that apply within England. The answer to your question "how much could I deposit" is easy. You can deposit that which would seem reasonable in your circumstances. Take a shitty weekend job as a barmaid, they get "tips". BAM. Now you can move small amounts of money and you have an income that you are already paying tax on.

If you are trying to dump 150k in 1 fell swoop, just forget about it. It won't work. Bankers are trained to spot large deposits and while it breaks no law to do so, they will try to sign you up for something and call you in the office. You would sweat so much spagetti you would give the game away.

>> No.412501

Same (notational) limit as in the US- 10k pounds deposited at one time will trigger a report. If the bank sees regular deposits in size, they'll report you too. They'll also ask questions if they see you trying to slice or split or irregularly deposit the cash in some fashion.

It's super easy for you to deposit 5k a couple of times a year without suspicions, though, if you really need to get the cash into the system.

I would make a website selling some sort of digital good such as some shitty E-Book (that I would find on pirate bay) and allow purchases using Bitcoin. I would take the money and convert it to bitcoin (in increments; not all at once). I would get on tor to use a bitcoin washing machine and run the coins through there, then I would use anonymous proxies (probably still on tor) to buy my shitty digital good from myself. You'd probably have to buy some fiverr adverting to get actually people visiting your site. I see your money is not in paypal, try finding a site that allows you to convert cash to paypal (probably doesnt exist)

You can deposit under £8000 without raising any red flags. You can do it every couple of months but it is then possible if hmrc scrutinises your account you'll get fucked over.

You said you own a business... You could use that or create a shell company abroad. Do you know any unemployed people? You could just 'hire' them for your business, pay them the 10k they get tax free and then have them transfer it to your account. Obviously you'd have to cut them in a little (only do it if they are planning to be unemployed for a while, cuz then they'd be taxed out the ass if they get another job within the year). A good idea would be to utilise students. A trick here would be to be as scary as fucking possible and threaten to kill them if they don't transfer the money over to you.

Another method of doing it would be creating a shell company abroad and then 'earning' money through them 'consulting' with other shell companies you own. Most countries that you can open a shell company under also protect the names of the owners of said companies.

Just run a used car business as a private company. You don't need a showroom or anything. Buy second hand cars with cash and legitimately sell them. Either rrecieve money straight in your bank account or get cash and now you can legitimately put it in the bank. As a company in the UK I don't think you pay any tax on earnings unless you break 60 or 70k a year or something.

It wouldn't even take that long, buy cars worth around 15 to 20k a time. Yes you will have to do some actual work, but it's a legit way to making the money legit.

also you might need to show your initial capital. Earning 17k and buying a 20k car? oh you took a loan from a friend - can he justify the money?

Jesus christ...perhaps I should've made it clear since you guys seem to be as dumb as shit. start out using about 5k and "work your way up" slowly to 15 to 20k a pop. As a trader you can buy and sell more than one car at a time, you don't need a showroom, you can just park them anywhere where it's free as long as you're not advertising them for sale on the road it's legit.

I know a bunch of people that do this. Although they buy fixer upper cat D and C cars and flip them. The money is legit. You will end up paying some tax when you get to higher figures but as OP said he don't mind paying some it's all good.

Also, he's not trying to "earn more" money, he's just trying to get what he has legitimately into the bank. So buying and selling at 1:1 shouldn't be an issue or hard at all. I guess any profit you do make flipping is a bonus. But that's not the aim here.

Also I've just realised an issue with this unless you're willing to take it slower, this could take a while.... since you need to make "some profit" to justify buying the next car at a higher price.

But there's an easy solution: falsify receipts. I'm not talking crazy shit here like buying a car for 5k and saying you sold it for 10k. But something like say you bought it for 5k and sold it for 6-7k. Make 2k a pop, obviously scales higher with higher priced cars, sell 4-5 a month, should get into bank bretty quickly, probably still take a few years though.... oh and best to take cash from sales...

>no knowing how to blackmail your parents

Your parents can be controlled, you just have to do it right.

You can threaten them with:

marrying a black woman
having a child with a black woman
becoming (or pretending to) be addicted to drugs
presenting them with a plausible but heavily embarrassing business plan, like a plan to go to the daily mail saying you're parents forced you to suck black cock for food whilst you studied and were homeless and was gang raped multiple times by black cocks.

its alot easier if you're female, threaten them with becoming a whore, or telling their social circle that your parents are child molestors, putting cp on their computers... etc

Their jobs and lives depend on their social status, you have the power as their child to destroy that. They brought you into the world, they are obligated to pay for you and give you whatever you want.

In a private conversation tell them to give you money or you will report them for child molestation, sexual abuse etc.

if they aren't paying for you, what do you need them for?
