If the informational content (created and freely provided here in approximately two years of unpaid full-time work) has been of help to you, please send a donation or join those who have reciprocated in any of the "painless" ways listed at Support this site.

If you wish to financially support my work (every donation is gratefully appreciated), there are five ways to donate:

1 Via Paypal



2 Donate in nearly any currency by sending me an Amazon Germany (amazon.de) gift voucher

Simply click this link. It is currently set to language = English and currency = USD. You can adjust the language setting to German, Polish, Turkish, Czech and Dutch and the currency setting to dozens of different denominations by clicking on the flag symbol appearing on the right of the search box at the top of the page.

3 You can also donate to my USD checking account at WISE

This will assure that most of your intended gift will actually reach me since WISE, in contrast to Paypal, offers the "real" exchange rate and only charges me a minuscule transaction fee for ACH transfers.

Account Holder: Ursula Schmid
Routing number: 084009519
Account number: 9600000000094585
Account type: Checking
Address: 30 W. 26th Street, Sixth Floor
New York NY 10010
United States

I also have a local GBP, CAD, NZD, AUD, and SGD bank account and can send you the bank details if you wish to donate in one of these currencies.

4 If you have a EUR bank account, please send your EUR gift to my German bank account. By sending EUR in this manner, all of your intended donation will actually reach me rather than "getting lost in the mail" (Paypal keeps a sizeable portion of any transfer via fees and exchange rate manipulation).
