Taxes for the Highest Paid Athletes

[BucciMane]

Everybody works. Everybody pays.

Taxes fund a lot of necessities and public good.

What planet do you live on? That isn't even remotely true.

The jock tax is a joke though, and should be illegal. A lot of golfers refuse to play in states that have that criminal law.

Soccer contracts are the numbers after taxes, right?

At my college there's an ex-Raider and he said that he had to pay taxes in every state he "worked" in

Everybody in the league works. Everybody in the league pays.

That's what I meant. Goofball.

Counting another mans money isn't not something we do in Harlem

Economic analysis is something Harlem nikkas don't do?

Stay Broke and money illiterate in 2017 but preserve the honor of the "no homo" brehs.

None of these guys pay their full tax-rate.

 

[CrimsonTider]

[The God Poster]

I mean yes they will come after you for every red cent

But a lobbying effort to get that shyt reduced wouldnt hurt

Spend money to go nowhere brehs

 

[CHICAGO]

MONEY MAY PAID 120 MILL IN TAXES...

THIS IS WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT IN THAT MONEY/CONNOR THREAD...

nikkaS TALKING ABOUT HE MADE X AMOUNT FOR HIS LAST FIGHTS

Federer still stackin like that

 

[Geek Nasty]

If I was a baller, I'd get my contract written so that ther was no reference to games played. This bullshyt of charging visiting teams is some bullshyt. NOBODY else pays taxes on business trips.

 

[SadimirPutin]

People in this thread telling me it would be a waste for athletes to pay a lobby firm to petition on their behalf

Um lobbies get laws changed to the benefits of their customer all the fukking time......

The jock tax is a poorly reasoned law. and a good lobbying firm could likely get that shyt adjusted favorably

 

[GunRanger]

that jock tax is a joke. come the fukk on...pay tax in a state because you played 3 games there? you didn't get paid from an entity in that state, you got paid from the league or from the state your org operates out of

It's bullshyt. If I were a top athlete I'd get the Kobe contract where 80percwnt is upfront.



Floyd gets his checks written to his promotion, not to himself directly.
