I mainly use checks to pay bills and have not set up a paypal account as of yet.

I go for PayPal,  when it is an option for purchases I opt for it.  It gives a layer of protection on purchases.

Paypal  Its faster and saves a trip to the bank.  It doesn't cost to add money to your account that way either.

I prefer a check so I can hold it in my hands before I deposit it in the bank.

I asked for direct deposit to my account.  Solves so many problems.

I like to see the check come in the mail and then I put it in a separate account to spend when I go on vacation.

I do PayPal. Checks take forever. I got a 1099 once - never again. I think I made $700 and the tax impact basically negated 3 or so months of earnings. As long as you average under 50 a month you won't get one.

You will only get a 1099 if you make $600 or more on this site.  It doesn't matter whether you use Paypal or get a check.  I get a check because I use this as my spending money.

I use PayPal but I don't see anyone making over 600 bucks on this site in a year unless they are living on here and even that I don't think it is going too happen. :moneymouth:

I've never had to file taxes for PayPal but then again I haven't earned a significantly large amount from any one source either.

I get paid by Direct Deposit. It is so much faster than any other way to get paid.
