Another nice podcast. I'm still slowly catching up on all of your old ones after just finding this a couple of weeks ago when reading on Dave's about Joe winning (see, it is valuable for at least ONE thing!). I really enjoy the way you talk about news and stuff affecting us foreigners here in Korea. I'll be tuning in every week from now on. Thank you.
About buying you a beer…any way I can transfer money within Korea to your accounts instead of using PayPal? I don't keep a lot in my US account and don't feel like sending just $1 at a time.

Thanks Kevin!
Dont' worry about the beer thing. Maybe I should also have like a bank account for donations inside Korea, but I'm nervous about posting an account number.
Could anyone give any advice on that front?
January 26th, 2009 at 9:08 am
I understand your nervousness about posting account info here. You could start another account solely for the purpose of donations here, and since it would have your non-personal cash, you might feel safer posting it. Or, you could e-mail it to those who are interested, which I'd definitely be.

I just talked to Eun Jeong. Everything has to pass through her first, you know. I have a handful of bank accounts, which happens after a few years in Korea. There's one that's still there but we don't really use anymore. I could use it for in-country donations. She said there's nothing to worry about.
Thanks. It never occurred to me to set up a direct deposit option. Here's the info.

Cool, I'll send ya a bit when I go in on Wednesday. I understand how it works with checking with your significant other, I sometimes feel like I need to ask my wife permission to get a drink of water! Well, maybe not that bad, but you'll learn how it goes when you're married.
