You don’t have to eat the elephant in one bite, you can do it over time.

Still, storefront rent on such shops plus the infrastructure necessary to run them is pretty damn low compared to most other fronts.


Worst comes to worst, lie and claim that anything which comes in needs to be sent to the central office for work and then sent back, which is why the only things in each office are a chair, desk, and receipt pad.

Start cash business.
Mix dirty money in with your legit cash deposits.
Spend money.

If you are forced to launder all of it, you will fail.

The crimes wouldn’t be the hard part.

The hard part would be defending yourself from people who know you can’t go to the cops and complain.


I wouldn’t want to be the dumbass making a Squat Cobbler video to explain why I have flashy shite that shows I have more money than my reported income while complaining to the cops about stolen stuff.

Find existing ones for sale?

Research ownership of such sites and either overpay for the business or do what you can to encourage a sale such as cutting into their profit margins?


Hell, someone with a vague knowledge of either Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul could figure out a lot of this.

you could even just buy them legally if you can access a LOC from a bank.

assuming I stay in my current job until I get my crime business off and running.

Therein lies the problem. When that owner goes to deposit $40k cash at the bank, you're screwed.

Buying any business for cash is going to require someone else who's willing to launder money, unless you buy it with money you've already claimed.

All of these ideas are plausible if you've got a sizable amount of money that's already legitimate. If you're starting from scratch, they won't work.

You'd have to buy them legally. Using the proceeds from your $20MM is the quickest way to get caught.

Depends on how much of the money you are looking to launder, if it's just so you can have a comfortable life without much stress, it's very simple. Pick a business you want and open up a shop. Over the course of time, it very easy to funnel money through. You don't really even have to work there, if you know of family or friends who need a job. If done well, they don't even have to be in on it, and you need the least amount of people to know. There are a few businesses/people I have know that have to be doing this.

A friend from Philadelphia talked about knowing which upscale restaurants there gave great meals at a fraction of what it cost to make them. And there were two prices: those on the menu and those charged to special friends. Many, many special friends who paid hamburger prices for filet with double lobster tails.

How would you handle it if you had a one-time windfall in cash that you didn't want to pay taxes on? For the sake of discussion, let's make it $20 million dollars.


The whole point is to pay some taxes.

Given your 20 million hypothetical, let’s assume it was from selling crack. You could start a barber shop and “clean” 10 mil over time. 20 million is hard without a big investment. Scrap yards are good place to hide money but that is a little more capital heavy. Churches or a “ministry” would be another way.
