So the thing is this. Soon I want to become a full-time traveler, because that has been my dream for a few years now.
Now I'm planning on making money through sites like these where I want to sell goods or services and get paid in bitcoins.
BTC is nice and all, but if I want to buy a loaf of bread I will need to be able to pay the old-fashioned way with old-fashioned money. Now one advantage of being a full-time traveler and not having an address is that there is no country to which I'm obligated to pay taxes. However it will probably be harder to get a bank account somewhere. Moreover, even if I am able to get a bank account somewhere I'm afraid that it might become suspicious if my only source of income will be mtgox and it might become a big source of income.
I'm wondering if authorities will then start to try to track my activities. And if so, is there a way to get an anonymous bank account? A bank account where I don't have to fill in my name or can fill in a false name? But with one that provides a debit card that I can use anywhere in the world? I assume that's not possible, because it sounds too good to be true, but I thought nothing ventured, nothing gained.

It's possible, you will need a passport in another name, preferably a different country than the US. You will need substantial funds, around 100k just to fund it properly. PanamaLegal seems pretty legit, I'm using them right now.

Find personal sources that you are willing to do cash/bitcoin transfers with. (Think localbitcoins.com)
Buy physical products with your bitcoin and cash out in the county you are in— you can also do some work or provide services to get paid in local cash.
And of course, check out the book I sell, "Bye Bye Big Brother" ;)

Oh yea, for my method, you need at least $25k just to get started.. so echo's is probably the cheaper route :)

Yeah I'm a poor guy so expensive methods won't work for me. :-P
