Oh, and fish2p2, if you're earning outside the US, the US doesn't tax you until you earn 80k+.

I'm fairly sure this isn't true for gambling income.

Grim, find a CPA. There is a lot of misinformation in this thread.

ok whoever said it was stupid to post that I dont like paying all my taxes, I would like to point out I dont give my private info over the forums so no one can report me..

That's what the internet's for.. posting anonymously..

Your naivety is really sweet.

Grimm, no way you should be paying 50% in income tax. File as a pro gambler, and write some [censored] off, for chrissakes. Also, move to Florida where there is no state income tax.

If you are a born a US Citizen, the only way to avoid taxation is to renounce your citizenship or die. If you do the former, you can never return to the USA.

False.

This is the type post that drives me out of my mind. If you think I am wrong (which I am not) then please explain your position.

The SEP IRA lets you deduct the amount you put into it (up to 25% of your reported income) from your taxable income, up to a max of $44,000/yr. The magic number here is like $176k a year or whatever. You invest/save $44k tax free and pay taxes on the other $130k. The catch is that you can't withdraw this money from your IRA until you retire, if you do there are stiff penalties.

Degen,

Are we allowed to have both ROTH & the SEP? This would be [censored] sweet.
