    You found what many have found...
    You are NOT wealthy enough to hire the Accountants, Lawyers, and build the tax shelters you need.
    Somewhere between $500K and $2 Million/yr... It's a no mans land... BY DESIGN.

    Unless you can consistently make the high end of that range, you will find it almost impossible to break through it.
    The taxes below that eat you alive, as you end up in the highest tax brackets. Also, it's far worse if it is WORK Income.
    Passive income can be far better.

    When you get to $2 million/yr consistently, you can afford the annual expenses of the team to help you rework your income.
    In effect, you get to the point that you can afford to spend $500K on those guys, etc. In lieu of spending that $500K on taxes.

    That's why the wall is where it is. If you only make $500K, you cannot possible afford to maintain the setup.
    So, you get slaughtered. It's changed now, thanks to Trump. But back in the day, you hit a nominal tax rate of 50.5%
    of every dollar you make (or 39% + 15% = 54% IF you do Corp + Dividends).

    That 15% is the Long Term Capital Gains tax rate. I consider it my job to maximize that income.
    This is also why people like musk want stock, stock options... In lieu of ANY salary.
    Finally, it's also why they BORROW money against their assets to fund their lives (it's not taxed).
    But once again, YOU can't do that until your assets >>>> your annual needs.
    When your assets are 1,000 times your annual needs. You can borrow 10 years of money, against 10% of your wealth.
    And get a near zero interest rate (over collateralized loan). In 10 years, you refinance it into another loan, on much larger assets.
    Eventually, you will pay it off. But everything you sell is only taxed at 15%...

    Yes... We PUNISH hard work with PUNATIVE taxation.
    We make ESCAPE Velocity very expensive. Basically impossible for the "working class", and the solo-preneur

    Posted by $ Olduglycarl 1 day, 8 hours ago to THE DISASTER CYCLE:: Now HERE is the Science (still, in general)
    Recently a science paper reported by Ben states the possibility that due to weak magnetic shields and crazy cosmic radiation the melting didn't take long at all but we'll have to hang around long enough to find out for sure!
    Ben has listed from time to time the actual length and timeline of each of the documented epochs.
    I just found one and will DM you. I think we can post photos on DMs . . .I'll find out.

    So is there actual evidence of complete melting (and accumulation in only ~12,000 years) that refutes the dating of millions of years of ice?
    (I realized that complete melting was a possible answer. That's why I asked. ;^)

    Yes, the Strait of America is priceless. We should also rename Iran, Trump.

    It came to me after all the replys, laughing at myself for not recognizing this one point.

    Aside the odd glacial remnants in the equatorial region, virtually all ice core evidence melted away over the 12K years Greenland and Antarctica spent at the equator.

    So much for the millions of years of ice layers they counted.
    Another interesting point is that their is hardly any major seasonal ice melt/ice accumulation going on at the most northern/southern regions of earth just like there are no seasonal growth rings expressed in tree trunks at the equatorial regions of earth.

    Me dino really loved the idea about the Strait Of America. Libtards have yet to get over Trump's Gulf Of America. Bet the entire Jackass Party would take to the streets angrily braying and wildly kicking up their heels if Trump actually managed to get the one dollar bill a "Donald."

    Got tot the second one, and just had to comment... Excellent! And then the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost - better! And then the Bee entry - laughing - but true! So many good ones.... but the liberal white women comment - so sad but so true...And then renaming the Strait of Hormuz! I would say that you have outdone yourself OGC, but you seem to do that often.

    THANKS!

    Dance on his grave, or piss on it? I think the latter approach, although I'll be a nice guy and wait until all of you are done dancing first.

    Diversity is racism, plain and simple. It makes judgements about people based on race, gender, religion, everything except on who and what a person really is. It's Orwellian doublespeak at its finest.

    Only what I recall a flaming libtard singing to me on a prison tower's phone. His tower was on the opposite side of some cell blocks.
    So I could not see him to line up my tower's AR-15 sights~~no different than this former Marine's M16 sights.
    Bwahaha!
