Re: Ship the Cayman!
$69K?! Porsche's website says it starts at $49K MSRP, so does this mean you got $20K worth of options on it? Or is it a Cayman S?
Edit: Very solid brag, IMO, but I would've been able to live much more vicariously through you if you'd gotten a 911 instead of the Cayman. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

How much did you pay in rake approx.? 60k is not that much compared to the amount of rake you paid. [/ QUOTE ] Obviously but would you rather have nothing?

[/ QUOTE ] The sixty grand is most definitely reportable income in the US. Also, if someone just gives you 60K as a gift, you have to report that, too. (IANAL nor a CPA, but I believe the cap on untaxed gifts is 10K in the US.) At any rate, I'm sure OP has an accountant who handles his taxes, so there is no need to speculate or take tax advice from BBV. (I am guessing people taking tax advice from BBV would result in some great BBV threads though.)

[/ QUOTE ] Yes I know you have to report gifts as income, but my point is this is not a gift, and is in exchange for mass amounts of rake. Thus therefore it is not something for nothing and could be viewed as a contract in quantum meruit, as in a contract by principal. I have my tax exam tuesday... lets hope thats right.
