You're supposed to report gambling winnings on your IRS tax forms, and you can deduct losses up to the amount of those winnings. But the IRS's definition of "winnings" is imprecise. Here are several example questions:

In January, I win $500 on a slot machine. In February, I lose $500 on slots. What do I report on my taxes?

On Friday, I win $500 on a slot machine. On Saturday, I lose $500 on slots. What do I report?

In the morning, I win $500 on a slot machine. In the afternoon, I lose $500 on slots. What do I report?

I'm playing roulette, betting $500/spin on red. On the first spin, a red number appears and I win $500. On the next spin a black number appears and I lose $500. Then I quit playing. What do I report on my taxes?

As you can see, the questions are generally related to what counts as a taxable "win", and over what period of time. If I play 100 spins of a $3/play slot machine and break even, I technically won $150 and lost $150 that session. What do I report?

Are they obligated to hire you back if work becomes available?

My company laid me off in October, with about 10 other people. I now see a job (exactly like mine) posted on a job board. But they have not called me back.

Well this is probabaly gonna get flagged but oh well


I am currently a student and i work for the college in a kicthen in the dineing halls. I have many female coworkers that get paid the same as me despite the fact that i do 3 quarters of there jobs. For example when one of the girls has tpo do pasta (about 100 pounds at a time) I have to stop what im doing to load it into the pot for her then she stands there and does nothing untill its time to take it out where I have to then again stop what im doing to do that for her. I then have to pour the sauce and carry it where it needs to go because the girls all claim they are not strong enough. Its like that with every single job their including things like taking out garbage and cleaning (if stuff has to be moved) I have to do my job and their jobs for the same minimum wage payment and it is not fair.

I am not sexist at all this is not equal pay for equal work because i do all the work!

is it really worth paying monthly for an eBay shop or should i stick to a regular account? i sell about 50 items a month worth around £25-£60.

All i know is that you get a few pence off the insertion fees... is there anything else to it?

I've been working a steady temp job over the past 6 months. Over the holidays in December, I'm going to have about a week, maybe more, with no work. But I'll be back to the same job after that week. Unfortunately, I can't really afford not to work... Can I claim unemployment for that one week without work??

If someone has a house listed with a real estate agent, but realizes he or she would rather do a FSBO...can this seller do this without any hitches? As in, would the real estate agent still charge the seller the commission fee, even though no deal was completed?

The details supplied on here as a reply to a quasi similar question 9 months ago are no more accurate. I emailed and it failed to go through. I phoned up, but to no avail.
Many thanks.

Attention Tax Honesty members. Forget 861 and the 16th!Stop asking if the Income Tax is Constitutional. That's the wrong question. It doesn't matter!! If you don't have income you don't owe income tax.

Your homework: Study Eisner v Macomber starting at "Income may be defined as..." and ending at "Nothing else answers the description." That is THE official legal definition of income. Period.

ANY profit above "capital investment" is defined as income. If you earn profits you are subject to the income tax, period. Totally constitutional on all fronts.

But:

-We are not serfs mandated to surrender our compensation for laboring for our living to the king.

-Labor is property - too short to prove here. Research it.

-You trade labor for equal compensation. Paychecks are not profit! Labor has value!

-We have the right to contract, to pursue happiness and earn a living. Making a profit above that is taxable as a privalege.

See Eisner. No income, no tax!

Supposedly the market is really bad right now. We live in a townhouse, and every time we have a showing we clean it up really good. We usually get feedback that it showed really well, but no one ever buys it! It's been on the market for almost six months and I am just getting tired of waiting. Is there anything we can do to increase the chances of it selling?

My landlord has a bad habit of trying to get me to rat on other tenants when their rent is late. I was on an emergency leave and he went to my boss and told him my rent was late and wanted to know when i planned on getting back. I dont appreciate this at all.

I recently put a set of mini alloys up for sale on the mini world website. A man contacted me via e-mail to say he would like them. He said that someone owes him money so he'll get them to send me a cheque the wheels went for £200 but he sent me £1500, so I have to send him £1300 back via western union mail. My family thinks this is a little dodgy and I should wait at least 3 weeks for the cheque to go through all the proper checks. Has anyone had any experience with this sort of thing?
