I was like your child. I walked across the UF stage twice in my time in Gainesville (‘05 and ‘06) and the only thing going through my head both times was “Don’t Trip, Don’t Trip, Don’t Trip...” - didn’t look for my parents, nothing, just tried not to make a fool of myself.

This is incorrect - recipients do not pay income tax on gifts received. In the six states mentioned in the article there is an inheritance tax, which only applies on receipt of an inheritance, not gifts made wile the giver is still alive. To the best of my knowledge no state charges any type of tax on the receipt of a…

Well it is $15,000 in 2018 that is tax free, but if you meant if you give away more than the tax free amount the answer is the excess above the tax free amount ($1,000 if you give $16,000 in 2018) is deducted from your lifetime exclusion amount, currently about $11,800,000 - the amount you give tax free at death. If…

While I agree with you, I think that is the main sticking point - why is transferring wealth a taxable event.

What happens to families with multiple kids when some dont want to be part of the family business? Do they borrow from a bank to buy out the kids that just want their cut? Do those kids just get left of the Will/Trust?

If your “small” farm does grow as you hope it does so that you have to worry about the estate tax, you should be able to work into the budget the cost of speaking with an attorney to determine the best ways to begin the process of sheltering as much of the value as possible. Honestly, gifting away interests in a…

Would you still judge if it was Fleshlight instead of a real doll?

Pickles, in any form.

Isnt the issue in Black Panther that she doesnt know T’Challa and Okoye? I thought she was fine with Lupita’s character (Nakia) but hesitant since she didn’t know the others. I just assumed Klaue has shown up to the club with his boys before so she has no issue with his guests, but if not then I guess you have a point…

I viewed the argument as what happens if you work for a company that all through out management disagrees with abortion and your boss sees you out there protesting for abortion rights and decides to fire you. Yes, as an at will employee the company can do that, but do you want companies to essentially chill free…

Oh I didn’t mean to say guys don’t do it. From what I hear from other women, men are even worse. I just figured based on the amount of complaints I hear about guys I thought women were better about filling out profiles... until I joined and realized both sexes don’t give a shit down here.

I just want women to have a profile. I can’t count the number of women, at least in South Florida, that have blank profiles entirely.

Pitbull... all day, every day... and I dont even like Pitbull

See and its so much easier for me to wake up with the sun in the morning, and I dont give a shit about running errands and doing shit in the dark after work.

I saw her/his comment early on so I dont know if anyone else found it as useful, but glad this got its own post because the idea of screencapping a map of w/e city I’m in and using it as a lock screen is perfect.

One of the attorneys I work with (for? he’s 80) likes to tell story of how his father (also an attorney) handled these things. He always made sure he had a drink in his hand at social functions and would say “I dont give legal advice when I’m drinking, call me in the morning.”

Her doppelganger on HIMYM was a Russian stripper.

I can understand the appreciation of cats, I love them too, but I am allergic so I only get to play with them in small doses outside of my house if I ever want to breath normally at home. I also do not have children because the dog (and only one) is about my level of responsibility.

Maybe if he worded it like “I’m glad I don’t have a dog because I would spend all of my time with it and it would be hard to work with him/her staring at me all day.” I love my dog, but I would understand the sentiment that not having her would make working from home easier (I do not work from home and this entire…

I would add French Quarter Fest as a great time to go if you want to try food. Many of the restaurants in town set up tents throughout the Quarter and serve miniature versions of some of their most popular dishes. No admission (at least as of 5 years ago, the last time I went, there wasn’t one). Multiple stages with…
