 @92892b15 Is it possible to skip Pateron (and the related fees) & pay the source directly? 
 @a4170f30 Here's how it looks from my perspective: I could set up PayPal and Vinmo and Bitcoin and KoFi and BlahBlah and YakYak and 100 other services for the 1 or 2 or 5 people who insist that's the best way to go. Then, I could spend my time managing all those services, and many of them would take their cut. Then, I could increase my record-keeping for who paid what from what source and when. And at the end of all that, I'm still paying most of the expenses.

Or, I could keep it simple. 
 @a4170f30 But I will add most of all - thank you for your interest and support. 
 @92892b15 Fair points all. Nothing worse than being a self-employed bookkeeper with a single client.

Time for me to review Pateron's ins & outs...
