(Because at that level of income, she is one of the 1% now.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's in a form of gift from multiple contributors. I don't even know if it is taxable? If 40,000 people gave someone $10 separately, would it be taxed? (I really should be in favor of taxing the money though, especially with my views on things such as estate taxes. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally I'd defer to Chef on this...but it's not like she's a 503©, and every gift I've ever received I've had to pay taxes on. Which could just as easily mean that I've been !@#$ing up my taxes.

Jim in Anchorage Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 (edited) Who has just under half a million dollars headed her way - all tax free. Good. Now she can buy a Moo-Moo and hide that gross stomach. Why do fat people insist on wearing tight clothing?

John Adams Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I'd like to reiterate that she was REALL REALLY REALLY epicly bad at her job. I am not a hospice social worker (that's for you 3rd) because that's not a job that suits my personality--I could not do it. This woman should not be working with monster teens in a situation where she is supposed to monitor/discipline them. The kids are still little monsters but WTF. IF you're going to cry and say you're going to put their faces on posters, maybe this is not the job for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which could just as easily mean that I've been !@#$ing up my taxes. There are no taxes due from the person receiving the gift. The donor has to pay a gift tax on anything over $13k. What gifts have you paid taxes on?? My wife and I heard that on the radio this evening and said to each other "Where can we get some kids to pick on us?" Right here. I think we've found our payday baby! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What gifts have you paid taxes on?? Monetary gifts from my father, mostly. For college graduation, he gave each of us siblings a chunk of stock, for example. Although now that I recall, in that case I may have just paid taxes on anything above and beyond the cost basis of the gift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What type of account did he set up to put them in, an individual or UTMA/UGMA and did you pay income taxes or cap gains? Oh and be aware that the basis in not calculated at the time of the gift. He gifted you his cost basis. Edited June 22, 2012 by Chef Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
