| 0:00.0 | Casey at his tax time, you are a very wealthy person. You make lots of money. No doubt you |
| 0:06.0 | probably owed the government money this year. Well, yes, I did. Yeah. And so did I. And I don't |
| 0:13.2 | know if you recognize this, but it is very difficult and or inconvenient to actually pay your taxes. |
| 0:20.2 | I just wrote a check. Yeah. But what did you have to do with the check? You had to put all your |
| 0:24.4 | information in a little envelope and send it out. And you have no idea who looked at it, |
| 0:31.2 | who saw it, so security number address banking information. And again, not to in any way indict |
| 0:38.0 | or go over the top on the US Postal Service. You know, I have the greatest mailman in the history |
| 0:42.0 | of error. That's a concern. Will it actually get there? So I as a paranoid neurotic person, |

| 1:16.9 | do that. I mean, I assume you could, but I never really thought about it. You would think of |
| 1:21.6 | all the things that people, the government would want. They would want the cash because I'm |
| 1:26.2 | like a check and all bounce on like a credit card. You can't dispute it. It's cash. It shows up. |
| 1:30.6 | Boom. We take the money. Put it in. But it is very, very difficult, almost darn near impossible |
| 1:35.6 | to pay in cash. And we have the privilege now of speaking to a guy who wrote an entire column. |
| 1:44.0 | It's in publications across the country right now about his quest on his, his undying devotion to |
| 1:51.1 | trying to figure out how to pay the IRS in cash for his tax bill. His name is Jay, |
