    Forum Financials 2013

    During today's NRM Board Meeting members were provided the year end financial documents. The forum's numbers for 2013 are as follows:


    • Donations: $890*
    • Bank&Biz Fees: 25
    • Web & Internet: 955**
    • Total Expense: 980



    * The $890 figure may be a bit low due to some donations made through Paypal not including distribution instructions. Those made by people known to be forum members were applied to the forum.

    **Web and Internet fees were adversely affected by last year's hacker attempts which ate up several hundred dollars of fees from our web host.

    Ditto, and I just did likewise.

    Yes, if someone could post the mailing address, that would be great -- I looked but couldn't find it. I can send checks directly from my on-line account and then there are no Paypal fees extracted.

    Just for info. It seems that one cannot easily pay by cheque from outside the US unless one draws on a US bank account. I ended up renewing my Paypal account to donate. I assume that this will trigger a cost to NRM unfortunately. Is that cost assumed as part of the administrative expenses?

    Yes, it's a cost of doing business.
