Can you just buy a bank check? Maybe do a wire transfer or set up an ACH debit with the firm.

[Brad]

what type of firm doesn’t allow you to transfer money electronically?? Sounds super, super, super sketchy.

If you’re investing and aren’t with Fidelity, Schwab or Vanguard, there had better be a really compelling reason!

The IRS would never seen anything like this, so that’s completely irrelevant in this case (any case really).

I think my wife just ordered check paper and prints her own checks….

that is cheaper

[Stacey]

You are correct. You are being cheap.
Business checks are like $60.

[Tim]

stop being cheap. it cost you more in your time to try and fix this problem than to pay for the checks.

You’re stepping over dollar to pick up a dime.

get the checks and move on.

you should have this issue off your desk in 30 minutes.

[Frank]

No, its not expensive to do that. Order the business checks from a discount check service if the bank charges too much.

And that is NOT an investing question.

Do not confuse frugality behaviors with investing.

[Natalie]

I can do a bill pay from my business account where I enter everything on the website and then the credit union prints/mails a check for me basically.

Is that an option?

[Janice]

You will be creating more headaches and raising more questions than you ever wanted if you were to be audited.

[Damon]

Who owns the investment? If it’s titled in the business name then don’t do it.

If it’s titled in your personal name then it’s fine.

[Dan]

I spend like $11 every 12-18 months on business checks. This is being cheap, not frugal!

[Josh]

Never a good idea to pierce the corporate veil and mix business with personal accounts.
