A guy with a 1911 on his hip has all the "insurance" he needs. Also take photos to share with us, Mike.
I'll get some photos on here tomorrow night. I use caution when dealing with anyone new, but like you said, I collect the money, my wife keeps the books (meticulously), so really would be hard for me to lose.

As far as the 1911 goes, this may sound weird, but while most people would find this off-putting, it actually put me at ease. I spent a good deal of my life in South Texas and other rural areas where someone w/ a gun on their hip was a common sight. Personal experience has taught me that contrary to what most might think, the type of people that tote in the open like that are usually level-headed realists, friendly as hell, and generous to a fault. Most people see the gun and assume the person carrying is "itchin' for a fight", when in fact they usually carry to keep the coyotes away from the livestock.
