my accountant called....he told me that with my gambling loses(poker/horse racing/lottery) being about 5K it will drop me below 38000 in yearly earnings and I can expect 2000-3000 of the money they took out for taxes refunded. I need to provide PROOF of 5K in gambling loses.

now...this makes me sick to type......I emptied the recycle bin friday morning. today is monday night......there was 342.00 worth of instant losers IN THE BIN. found 400 plus in dining room. including 19 20.00s. I also found 500.00 in poker receipts I saved.

um.....I have a gambling problem.

other car factor.....I will probably GET PROMOTED if I get one. not a huge raise but few dollars a hour.

taking physical thursday,...going to get learners permit friday.

I know when I had to report winnings it made no diff if I declared 0 or 5k in gambling losses because it was till below standard, I could be waaay off tho as I have no idea about taxes, only that my 5k winning was fully taxed even if I tried to claim 5k losses

he seemed to be rushing me off the phone and he confused the fuck out of me....he told me to find as many loser tickets as I could find. I guessimate ive THROWN OUT 20K in losers this year.....did I lose 20K??? no! had about 15K in winners. I dont see a problem with me replacing the thrown out tickets with other tickets since I'm not getting greedy...i'm just trying to prove a legitmate gambling lost.

oh Baseball cards are 100% gambling for me but proving that wouldnt be easy. theres 5K in loses this year too.

how do you get a raise for having a car?

So you make $18k in a year, and estimate that you blow $5k of it on baseball cards and another $5k on scratchers?

I gotta admit I'm pretty damn impressed that you can live off of roughly $8k per year, even if you do live with your dad. I guess what they say is true; mo money mo problems.

Why dont you put 4k aside for a week in Vegas next summer? If you're gonna blow it, at least travel and have some fun.

1,500 Hi/Lo Event
1,000 Air/Hotel
1,500 male hooker/blow money

Yes, an autistic person with a gambling addiction from a wealthy family will be a great example of how the poor live

Its an example. I don't have any idea what would be a "great" example.

I agree with everything you say except the target part. HOW THE FUCK WOULD YOU KNOW HOW THE FUCK I PERFORM AT MY FUCKING JOB. I NEVER MISS A DAY. IM NEVER LATE. I HAVE BEEN OFFERED O F F E R E D THE JOB ASSWIPE BUT I DONT DRIVE AND SEPTA DOESNT REACH.

lot of war bashing here. fine with it. BUT I WORK HARD AT MY JOB AND AM PROUD OF THE WORK I DO AT MY JOB AND FUCK SOME LURKER ASSCLOWN THINKS HE KNOWS WHAT TARGET WANTS.

Gotta get my boxer shorts at K-Mart

This is the first thread at the bottom of this page. WAR should re-read that and think about a car. Honestly, the best choice would be:

1. Pay off debt
2. Play a few events/Document next years WSOP on video, post on P5's daily during trip
3. ???
4. Profit!!!

then everybody wins

The lurker smack-down is loltastic. He's been waiting for 6 years to get that one off his chest.

Buy what you want WAR, don't listen to the haters on here, buy the car, move up at your job, go to vegas and get laid.
