Answer 1

Get a prepaid debit card from WalMart, Walgreens or the places that do cash advance.  You buy the card (small fee) and can load the cash on the spot.  Most of them now have bank account numbers associate with them, so once you have the prepaid debit card setup, you can link your paypal account to it and add/withdraw funds.  I suggest GreenDot.
