Hello everyone, Why not just an e-gold debit card that is free to fund but merchants pay 4% plus a security deposit? Talk an issuer into making it an ATM card [again, free to fund, but 4% on withdrawals] and you have not only a ddecent income but also a piece of plastic you can give in exchange for cash. The psyochologic effect of getting *something* thouchable in return for cash/transfer/deposit/etc. is still very powerful.
Throw in a few tag lines of happy families having a longer holiday / bigger SUV / whatever, just because they funded their cards X months ago before the gold price rallied and Joe Average thinks that he must have one cause it won't cost him anything and he might end up getting free money. Overnight you have de facto deposit accounts for which you don't pay a cent in interest... Maybe form a Merchant Organisation that pools some funds to get it started? Do-able? I certainly think so.
