Yes Apothesoft you need an account to start trading BTC in order to sign up, not necessarily at Coinbase, once finished these steps you will need to send some fiat into the account then you can ask for a withdraw and finally you don't need to care about the IRS thingy but you can still asked them for more specific information Grin

The first thing you need to do is use a handly little website called GOOGLE that will answer all of your questions already.

Gee..... Thanks.... Aren't you helpful!   I would have never thought of that.

Obviously you hadn't.

People spend a lot of their precious time researching, reading, etc. to get on top of these things.  You hop on the forum as some random unknown, and expect everyone to simply hand out any and all knowledge that they've worked hard to gain - while you've obviously done nothing?  Get real.

Actually you can start from here: http://bitcoin.org

How do I get started with bitcoins?  Buy and Selling something.

Do I need to create an account at  CoinBase?

What do I need to do so that someone can send me a BitCoin?
Do I need an account somewhere?  How do I get that account?

What I what to be able to do,  is to have my tenant pay his rent using BitCoin.
What do I have to do to get this to work?

If I need to redeem some of my BitCoins for cash, How do I do that?
Are cash redemptions reported to the IRS?  Is there a paper trail?

I want to get off the grid.  Will bitcoins do that for me?
