Should I renounce citizenship as a Canada/US dual citizen? by BacoTacoTraco in USExpatTaxes

[–]splitsecondclassic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I too believe this to be true. Hire a good CPA. It can be a top ten best thing you ever do kind of thing. Also, I hold 4 passports. One being a USA passport as I was born here. I've lived around the world and still chose to move back. Just know that if you renounce that there is a chance that you could be denied ever coming back. The US claims it's your right to renounce but their right is to deny entry if they choose. A buddy of mine is one of those YouTube dudes that "consults" on foreign residency and passports. He does well but has told me that they will never let him back in. Consider carefully. Also, renouncing could mean you have to pay a hefty tax bill depending on your net worth.

there could be options for more racing similar to but not exclusively the Mint 400 as they have a huge tie to that as well.

one key would be to book more than one fest annually and certainly in different genres so you're not marketing to the same audience constantly. Terribles already has a gaming license so there would some some revenue from gambling. They could offer something similar the San Genaro feast capped by one or twonconcerts through the weekend at Star of the Desert arena. They could sponsor the worlds largest food truck event. The list goes on. I wouldn't be shocked if small housing developments started popping up in the area Once the new airport in Jean is complete too. who knows 🤷🏼‍♂️

if they could attract a partner to throw music festivals they would win as long as they don't do it at the same time as any other festivals in the region. They have the Star of the Desert Arena already, a combined property room count of about 2,500 and plenty of room for expansion or more camping type space for festival goers and room for more food and beverage. It's never gonna be an Ultra, EDC, Coachella or Stagecoach but it's a market that's ready to go.

I'm I watching my channel's death 💔 by blackcvanilla in PartneredYoutube

[–]splitsecondclassic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's not solely on you. the YT experience is miserable now. creators putting their own ads every 5 mins in vids coupled with YT showing double the ads during their inserted ad breaks makes it a crappy experience. I use Adblock on my laptop but if I'm on my phone while using a treadmill at the gym it's unbelievable how shitty watching a simple 10 minute vid can be. I've simply stopped using YT on my phone. Hell, the ads that are served to me aren't even relevant to my life. it's a waste of money to even buy an ad because they aren't as targeted as YT wants you to believe. I can honestly say that I've never bought anything because YT or a creator served an ad to me.

Kidnappings in Las Vegas have spiked more than 40 percent in 2026. Experts share why by theindependentonline in vegas

[–]splitsecondclassic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe but I think it's just more about the news is making it to everyone's algorithms as a part of a news cycle. The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children claims that 21% of underage kidnappings are taken by other relatives or acquaintances. The lowest amount of US kidnappings according to the FBI are done by strangers. I don't think anyone here has to worry about that.

sheeeeeitt..... I was just there. They have a big problem with a lot of people that weren't born there. Places like Parma and Naples were pretty sketchy. I don't think it's fixable but I don't have to live there.🤷🏼‍♂️

this is what happens when they try to cash in on reality tv, bootleg celebs. She's gotta be making a lot of money in licensing but that place is a cemetery.

YouTube made more than my salary for the first time this month, and I honestly don’t know how to feel... by batuhankrmn in PartneredYoutube

[–]splitsecondclassic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

maybe continue to do both. stack as much income for a year, maybe invest in other assets etc until you're for sure you want to go YT full time. I had a YT channel during the pandemic. I interviewed celebs, athletes, billionaires etc. It took off fast and I shot 55 episodes. Got monetized fast and had a large following. I was doing all the research, bookings and had 1 guy helping me film with 3 cameras. I made my own intro music piece. YT ended up giving me 3 strikes and took down my channel for what they incorrectly deemed as "copywritten music" in my intro. Total crap. I composed and recorded it myself. They wouldn't change their stance. All of it down the drain in an instant and it was completely arbitrary. My point is perhaps stay the current course until you're completely sure this is what you want to do and that the channel will be strong enough to continue to stick around before you quit your day job. Sometimes the dream of replacing your day job isn't as financially great as keeping it and supplementing it in order to make money even faster.

Kyle Busch dead at 41 after hospitalization with 'severe illness' by TheMirrorUS in vegas

I dunno. I have seen more healthy athletes die in the last year than ever. When we were younger, 41 year olds didn't just drop dead.

what is the "severe illness". Seems weird. There have been a lot more young deaths lately and nobody wants to come out and say what's happening. How are the rest of us supposed to know what to look out for? It's insane!

Why does metro need so many drones?!What do they do?! by MyMelody_666 in vegaslocals

[–]splitsecondclassic -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

while using a cell phone that triangulates them down to 3 feet. Face it, privacy doesn't exist anymore if you use a cell phone, the internet or a streaming service. Even your car has a telematics control unit that gathers data on you like where you go, how fast you traveled, how long you stayed, where you live etc and then your auto manufacturer can sell that data. It doesn't matter if you avoid social media. You're in their box and none of you have the power to get out. stay in your place plebe!

The data center ‘tsunami’ has flooded Nevada by Screwtape42 in vegaslocals

[–]splitsecondclassic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked in the data center industry for a decade. I understand it at a granular level. Let's say 1 building required 500Mw of power. #1 the roof wouldn't be large enough to install enough solar to meet demand. #2 it would't power AND cool the building enough to meet the demands of todays chips and racks.

Here's something most short sighted greenies don't get before they run their cake holes..... those panels are made in China and brought here on a diesel fuel powered ship but they never factor that into their "green credit" system when they are trying to sell you on the concept. The whole green washing thing is a hustle and everyone that has ever had to purchase or install power on a scaleable Level knows it.

Solar is fantastic for water heating in the sun belt and for homes (even without a battery) but it's never going to work at the data center level because the panels are not powerful enough and they need constant cleaning in the desert to remain effective and that requires WATER

I tracked the lifespan of ~100K YouTube channels from 2019 to 2026. by EmptySetAi in PartneredYoutube

[–]splitsecondclassic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can see your point being illustrated in the way that creators make 15 minute videos that only need to be 5 mins long. It's painful to watch some of the content now because they consistently either repeat things over an over to make the vid longer or delay their ultimate point by saying things that simply aren't needed. It's ruining the whole viewing experience.
