May file ch.7 in october-ish. Occasionally I buy or sell things on ebay using paypal, sometimes I will go 6 months without any activity, sometimes I will buy or sell several items in one week. I just sold something for about $300 and I believe that money will stay put in my paypal account until I do something with it (ex.-debit card, checking transfer, spend it.....), not too sure though. Thinking about buying a small laptop (netbook) on ebay with that money, since my laptop died about a month ago, and my new job requires ALOT of travel, therefore a working, easy to carry laptop is needed.
Will the trustee look at this and frown because I am filing, yet I have funds to buy electronics??? I know that I can just transfer that money into my checking account and exempt it under my wildcard exemption, but I really would rather replace my laptop with it right now. I just don't want to do something that will jeopardize my case.
Really trying to do the right thing, and at the same time, NOT stop living.
