microtransactions aren't gambling because there is no return on it, its just paying for a service

MatCat
remember its not losing money the gov cared aobut, its when you get money, so they can tax it :P
[00:11:12]
tr
[T] <login> In many countries, gambling winnings are not considered taxable income
[00:11:15]
tr
[T] <login> no matter what size
[00:11:20]
tr
[T] <login> because it's not work, but a hobby
[00:11:25]
MatCat
that is not the case in USA
[00:12:15]
tr
[T] <login> yeah, winnings above a limit in the US (is it 10000 USD or 1000 USD or 5000 USD?) are taxable
[00:12:40]
MatCat
I dunno about gambling earnings specifically, but anything over $6000 in income of any kind must be filed
[00:12:55]
tr
[T] <login> even if it's a gift?
[00:13:09]
MatCat
yes, there is a way to state gifted money on taxes
[00:13:25]
tr
[T] <login> found on the ground?
[00:13:29]
MatCat
it wont cause you to have to pay more, but you still need to file it
[00:14:06]
tr
[T] <login> i see
[00:14:11]
tr
[T] <login> they just want visibility i guess
[00:14:25]
MatCat
yes so if they audit you they know exactly how you came to where you are
[00:14:38]
MatCat
and of course a lot of people do abuse 'gifting' to get around taxes
[00:15:03]
tr
[T] <login> some countries have rules that if the scheme is primarily to gain a tax benefit, it's illegal
[00:15:22]
MatCat
yeah its illegal in the USA to falsely claim the purpose of income
[00:15:31]
tr
[T] <login> purpose of income?
[00:15:58]
MatCat
yes, I.E. to claim money is a gift when its really for selling goods or services for profit, would be illegal, the purpose of that income would be gains
[00:16:19]
tr
[T] <login> So if they audit me and then find out I got >$6000 but didn't file it - they will charge penalties on it?
[00:16:23]
tr
[T] <login> even though no tax was owed on it?
[00:17:03]
MatCat
a more interesting example, would be selling guns, you can sell a gun privately to someone, BUT if you are doing it for profit gain, you need to be al icensed dealer, if its just as you as a person selling it to get rid of it, then its legal without dealer license
[00:17:27]
tr
[T] <login> so it can't be a business
[00:17:34]
MatCat
login: in that case you would get the standard fine for improper filing, which is its own thing

[00:18:00]
MatCat
well US law is based on intent
[00:18:05]
tr
[T] <login> if you like switching guns like switching phones every 2 years
[00:18:08]
MatCat
you don't prove the crime, you prove the intent
[00:18:34]
MatCat
did he intend to sell the gun for profit? then license needed
[00:18:44]
tr
[T] <login> I guess it would depend on volume too
[00:18:53]
MatCat
selling a gun just to change models every few years would be fine, because the intent isn't profit
[00:19:01]
tr
[T] <login> Even if a profit was made on each
[00:19:16]
tr
[T] <login> Switching every month, or switching 20 guns every year - more dicy
[00:19:28]
MatCat
yes if you start getting high volume it gets attention
[00:19:41]
tr
[T] <login> What if you are a high-volume collector?
[00:19:42]
MatCat
and becomes much harder to prove your intent is not profit motivated
[00:20:33]
tr

in my opinion the IRS is unconstitutional

income tax is a very recent idea in the USA

tr

tr
[T] <login> higher population = more units of food need to produced
[00:40:01]
tr

We have debt jubilee campaign groups quite often asking
[00:40:09]
tr

tr
[T] <login> fractional reserve banking is just a mechanism, and the reserve ratio in the US is 0% now

Nah it’s oral surgery
[00:47:05]
tr
[T] <login> Is it profitable? or is it just income smoothing?
[00:47:19]
tr
[T] <login> I see, so it's an advance on their future pay basically
[00:47:28]
tr
[T] <login> i.e., credit card interest rate
[00:48:25]
irish666
They’re quite close so I was tempted with just something enough to combat inflation so 1-5%
[00:48:33]
tr
[T] <login> I guess if you love your friend, you'll give them the money
[00:48:49]
tr
[T] <login> So you're going to give them a nominal interest rate instead of indexing to inflation?
[00:49:08]
irish666
That would make more sense
[00:49:22]
tr
[T] <login> either charge them no interest, or charge the deposit rate on your current bank account
[00:49:32]
tr
[T] <login> And don't expect to get any money back
[00:50:01]
tr
[T] <login> Do people do this kind of thing in America?
[00:50:03]
irish666
But the surgery don’t major enough to effect employment so we should be good
[00:50:13]
tr
[T] <login> Anything can affect employment
[00:50:21]
tr
[T] <login> since you have no inside look into the company's financial health
[00:50:45]
tr

[00:51:11]
irish666
I think there is the dole

tr

[00:52:14]

I could just crypto, PayPal o just use my bank
[00:53:52]
tr
[T] <login> Crypto would be 5%
[00:53:59]
tr
[T] <login> Bank might be better
[00:54:12]
tr
[T] <login> Best would be an international card with no foreign exchange transaction fee
[00:54:39]
tr
[T] <login> mastercard would give you the actual wholesale rate + 0.03% markup
[00:55:03]
tr
[T] <login> or your local card if it works with international transactions
[00:55:20]
irish666
For the info actually
[00:55:33]
tr
[T] <login> Bank would be a v bad rate (2% off their own rate) + fixed fee for SWIFT transfer
[00:55:47]
tr
[T] <login> PayPal would be 2.7-2.9% - they all know each others' rates
[00:56:11]
irish666
I think I’ve used PayPal for this before
[00:56:40]
tr
[T] <login> If you have a brokerage account, you could do something if a stock is traded in the UK and the US

[00:58:15]

[00:58:17]
irish666
They probably don’t have a broker
[00:58:55]
tr
[T] <login> You can buy a travel card, load it with USD, and mail it to them
[00:59:05]
tr
[T] <login> if it's registered mail, nobody will open it
[01:00:12]

tr
[T] <login> since administering a business is an important skill
