12/21 - Thingamabob Thursday!

So a requester emailed me a link to hits on www yesterday and I was able to work the batch on www

 

Happy solstice, everybody!



I have no fireplace, so here is Nick Offerman silently sipping scotch next to his burning yule log instead.
The 45-minute video is more epic, but this is the gist.

 

Google it or talk to a CPA before listening to me because I don't have any real world work experience in tax law but trying to give someone money to cover taxes doesn't really work.

Like if you give someone a car valued at 50k, their 'income' for the year will increase by 50k. Hypothetically assuming a 20% rate, their tax liability increased by $10k.

So you give him a car and $10k to cover the tax. But now he has 60k income and will owe $12k in taxes.

Basically you can somewhat cover tax for someone but you get stuck in a loop

 

What if you sold them the car for $1 or a different value less than 50 k? Would that be a loophole to pay less tax?

Pros:
Fair pay (I'm still tired, so I'm sure you can do this faster). Not too monotonous, due to the interactive screen simulator thingy, followed by a not-too-painful survey.
Cons:
Endor.

Sorry to be a bother.
Im going to try and reset up my chrome after i lost all the turk stuff that i had saved. Im not seeing GuIDs in links any more to add to PC. I am able to find Requester ID's but they dont seem to work in PC. I thought i had set everything back up right last night but that doesnt seem to be the case. PC hasnt grabbed anything "Pins, Serg, Doe" and others that have often grabbed a few each day.
Again sorry to pester
