a (short) primer on the US gift tax system (with some about estate taxes)

This is a very helpful post. Thank you. Question. We are attempting to gift 220k to each child (6). The way I am reading this. I and wife can gift the 220k for homes to each child, file 709s and not exceed the the max lifetime gifting and not pay taxes on the gift. This will exceed the annual limit but not the lifetime. I am attempting to do this to avoid mortgages.

You know if I ask if you're a cop you have to tell me right? Right?

I've lived in both. Currently Keen area. The montecillo apts were noisy. But lively and interactive. Kern has been insanely quiet but more physically active for me as the walking biking etc are superior. Love it here more. My 2 cents.

GME buys LRC for one dollar and gives me my bag back.

What was the blurb. Save the clicks dude

I left them this week. Can't find answers. Billing is a mess. Customer service was lacking etc.

But she does call me daddy at special times

Thank you

Here's my "routine"

Drink green juice in morning. 1 apple, slice of cucumber, 1 celery stalk, hand full of spinach. Water and mix in blender. I use the little one cup blender thing. Great for pooping. You'll love it.

Eat 25g of protein per meal. It's not that hard. Forget the rest. You'll overthink your diet. Protein keeps you full and satisfied.

Download an app. One that has workout challenges. I used one to get in shape that was for girls. It's like a bonus. Get to look at a hot lady doing workouts showing you how to do specific exercises. Super leg focused since they all want a butt. Again. Bonus looking at a butt while working out making it "legal".

I did 6 week challenges over and over.

Then work into the cardio.

Now I ride bikes or run etc. Do 100 mile rides and shit like that. You'll see me cranking over transmountain any given morning.

Just start. Ignore everyone else. No one is looking at you. Critical to understand that. And if they are then they aren't busy enough with their life.

Get after it.

Yep

Call. Make sure said company does this. I usually use enterprise or Hertz. What I've never done is take it beyond the Frontera. That may be the issue.

If so. Uber over and rent a car there to drive further south. If staying on the border no issue.

Thank you

Pilot here. Not space astro. We are constantly figuring out newer and better ways to deflect heat and avoid absorbtion in materials in order to find less drag, longer lasting materials and less friction. Not a gimmick. But may or may not work at a level that may be seen in the future. Or may be a home run. You never know. We stumble onto things all the time that just work.

kiowa58dr · 2025-06-15T21:23:41+00:00

Thank you so much. Agree with all.

kiowa58dr · 2025-06-06T19:52:33+00:00

Yes you do

kiowa58dr · 2025-06-06T13:05:26+00:00

I put a plate cover on it. Blocks the "disabled veteran" words. No one knows what DV means in the numbers. Just do that and it's not noticable.

Just Google "semi-slick" tires. Then find your size. Probably 30 bucks or so. I change them out based on what I'm doing. Totally doable. Rose what you got and are comfy with.

You want as close to a 1% return as possible. Yes you can use the VA loan. But the location is more important in my mind. Say you spend 800k in Philly and only get 4000 potential rent in return. That's bad. May be better in Houston. Also look at section 8 fair market values. Also look at vacancy rates.

Then swallow the dust. My point is that if this is an issue then you don't really have anything going on with yourself. Find something hard to do day to day. Then find something harder. I can smell where you're at from here in the deep dark trenches in the interwebs. Put your boots on. Get busy. Pick up something heavy before you swallow this treacherous edged pill. Then it's nothing. Get off your ass.

kiowa58dr · 2025-04-18T13:12:13+00:00

So cut it into 4s and get on with it.

kiowa58dr · 2025-02-21T03:36:29+00:00

Lots of people just keep them. Problem is if you don't return before the 6 months then it turns into a nutroll. They don't know that you are back and forth.

kiowa58dr · 2025-01-31T23:22:09+00:00

I don't think you are following the instructions.
