You have an expert background in US tax matters. So it's natural for you to feel the need to go deep into the weeds on these matters. I just want the answers. I don't pretend to ever be at your level on such analysis and it simply doesn't interest me. I'm not in a position to argue arcane law to the TRD in Thailand.

It's a MEME coin, dude! Such scams degrade the legitimacy of crypto. A social media site at least does something in terms of communication, spreading propaganda and misinformation. How is it even remotely ethical for a president to be pushing a meme coin for this own personal profit?!? Can you actually defend that as legitimate?!?

Actually that firm in a recent QA session provided a very clear and firm answer about that specific question about whether the value of U.S. retirement accounts at December 31, 2023 is exempt going forward. NO! NO! N0! So, no worries about complex accounting. It is very simple actually. The full amount of the withdrawals when remitted is the relevant number. ALSO, there is no cost basis profit calculation on sold assets WITHIN the retirement accounts as there is for non-retirement investments.

I think that any but the most dedictated down the rabbit hole maga cultists can acknowledge that the ideal of the presidency is to serve the American people, rather to serve the bank accounts of the presidents. Yes of course ex-presidents make money related from the office such as book deals and speaking tours. But those are related to the presidency. There is no rational justification for this massive meme coin GRIFT. A question I do have is just how much money the Trump crime family stands to make from this scam. I have read a range but I'm generally hearing several BILLIONS of dollars (at least on paper for now) which represents a multiple amount of wealth more than the Trump crime family has made from their core business -- branding real estate, money laundering, tax evasion, etc. If the democrats had the house majority I would say -- IMPEACH HIM AGAIN, but the republicans shamelessly bow down him as if he was King. I haven't heard this idea from any media, but I personally have a feeling that Trump hopes to with this and other scam grifts become the richest man in the world, richer than Elon Musk. Why? Well, he would want that, wouldn't he, and it must bother him that Musk beats him in that department. He's on his way by turning the USA into a Putin style oligarchy. Putin managed to become the richest person in Russia anyway, so Trump has a blueprint for further CORRUPT action.

OK, I could list 100 things that show how corrupt Trump is. But this scammy meme coin is just so in our faces it can't be ignored. Aside from using his presidency to make billions off a scam token, anyone in the world, including enemy leaders can buy his garbage coin ANONYMOUSLY, but he'll know. What we know is that he is all about everything being transactional. A Trump regime for We the people? In our dreams.

You supported him.

Hardly. Did you vote for Trump to threaten allies with takeovers? When a leader goes mad, it's the patriotic thing to resist him.

I support Ukraine against Russia and in the same vein I support Denmark, Panama, and Canada against Trump. Putin and Trump -- birds of a feather. What's even funnier not ha ha is the not even his most hard core maga base thought they were voting for what he is trying to do with imperialistic expanding the land of the USA. Russia has plenty of land already and so does the USA.

This is a bigger picture observation of what Trump is doing. Yes he is smashing up the government in every way he can. One way is to have incompetent cabinet members totally loyal to him and in some cases picking leaders who are against their departments even existing. Next step -- TOTAL CHAOS. Then -- with his artificially manufactured multi-faceted CRISES, Trump comes in with even more extreme dictatorial actions and powers because the people will be crying for that when everything is falling apart. This is a classic textbook move of authoritarian dictators. He has lots of power now. He wants it ALL. Now I realize the most people that voted for Trump believing his lies about lower grocery prices weren't aware that they were voting for this total madness. But it's too late. He's installed.

What Movies or TV shows are you watching (2025)
Jingthing replied to Rimmer's topic in Entertainment
A comedy? A holocaust movie? Neither. Refreshingly original hard to categorize movie showcasing the talents of Jesse Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin (yes brother of the Home Alone guy). -
That post was a disgusting flame and entirely about you idiotically thinking you understand me. I'm upset that Trump is now an authoritarian dictator and he pushes people based on total loyalty to dear leader that have zero qualifications or competence. For Ambassador to Luxembourg OK. Not for a life and death stakes for the planet job like defense secretary.

Yes banks do cash U.S. checks but I think they're much more likely to do that when the payee has an account with them. I can imagine them not liking anything different. It helps that it's not a personal check but from a corporation. As far as getting help from a U.S. national, if it's a big check, they might be concerned about remittance tax implications.
-
Ouch that sounds tricky. I assume if he has a Thai bank account he already asked them I used to contract with Schlumberger in the US and most staff weren't US citizens. Sounds remote but maybe he can beg to them to cancel the check and to send the money western union.

Your posted garbage extremist reality denying right wing propaganda, and I'm bigoted. Sure thing, buddy. The reality is that he OBJECTIVELY lacks qualifications. To suggest otherwise reflects very badly on anyone lying about that.

This is getting kind of silly. If you don't file because your income is exempt and you don't have accessable income over the threshold, and you also keep good RECORDS, in the unlikely event that you're called in about that, you prove your situation, and the worse that can happen is a fine for not filing when you were supposed to. (But you're not supposed to.) If people are going to push anything, push learning about the different kinds of income being accessible or not, and stop pushing unnecessary filing About the irrational FEAR MONGERING that extensions are going to require tax returns, cross that bridge IF it ever happens.

That rag which was promoted by Rush Limbaugh. The author a Fox News contributer. Worthless propaganda. Trying to push the narrative that that boza is at all qualified is insane. With his record, he couldn't get a job managing a retail store. Look I might have different politics than you, but I would NEVER EVER try to pass on such a total nothing stuffed shirt closer to my ideology as being qualified for one of the most powerful roles in the world. That would be idiotic and shameful.
