I don't have any advice on how to do it the other way because I wouldn't do it like that. I think you are risking too much doing it that way. What if your pay for the month got held up for some reason? Wouldn't you have to leave the country?
Why go through the hassle? Won't it really mess up your life if you don't stay on top of it all the time? Put the money in an account and you won't have to do any of that other stuff
