MenoParticipant
zahavasdad,
That’s not how the gift tax works.
First of all, the requirement to pay tax is on the giver, not the receiver.
Second, it’s very unlikely that a person would ever have to pay a gift tax. The way it works is that you only start paying a gift tax once you’ve given more than $5.45 million total in your life. Additionally, the first $14,000 of each individual gift doesn’t even count toward that $5.45 million.
Source: TurboTax (the info is also on the IRS website but the numbers haven’t been updated)
Bottom line, these people didn’t have to pay a gift tax.
MenoParticipantgifts over a certain amount are also taxable and are supposed to be included in income
I thought the same thing so I looked it up. I don’t think it’s true
MenoParticipantI don’t know anything about any of the cases, and I’m not here to say who is innocent and who is guilty, but I doubt the FBI arrested people based on the clothing they wear or the vacations they take.
MenoParticipantThe CTL compound sounds like more of a frum town than some frum towns.
MenoParticipantSimple. Keep a piece of salami lodged up each nostril.
That’s probably why they sell them in packs of two.
MenoParticipantmany people say no some people say yes
You should ask those people because no one here seems to have any idea what you’re talking about
MenoParticipantNo no, you’re all missing the point.
I love the smell. I’m concerned that it will go away, and I won’t smell delicious salami every time my wife asks me to go downstairs to get the laundry.
How do I keep the smell from going away?
MenoParticipantRight back?
MenoParticipantחייך קודמין
MenoParticipantWhat does it take to start a hitching spot?
MenoParticipantWhat’s broken about it?
MenoParticipantJourneys is much better than Destiny.
No question
MenoParticipantIt’s because of Obama and the whole Cash for Clunkers deal.
If more people were driving clunkers, the weather would be just as it should be
MenoParticipantI live in Lakewood, but the cost of living here is outrageous!
You should come to New York
MenoParticipantIn most cases, the manufacturer knows the car better than you. They have no incentive to give you bad recommendations.
MenoParticipantYou should use whatever is recommended by the car manufacturer.

You just need to say that once. After that you can just call them kids or children
MenoParticipantI don’t doubt their kashrus but there are rules to follow in general
If what you’ve said is true, I would at least question their kashrus
MenoParticipantThe whole point of a yard sale is that the weirdos don’t have to step foot in your house.
How would this work with an apartment?
I guess you can leave stuff out in the hall and ask them to slip money under the door

MenoParticipantAs to the price of canned tuna versus fresh tuna, most of us don’t purchase food for our families based on finding the cheapest option available
Really? Am I the only one that makes decisions based on price?
MenoParticipantHow can they tell me what to do?
They’re not my mother
MenoParticipantI’ve seen signs in stores that it’s not allowed according to the NYC Department of Health. Not sure exactly what that means
MenoParticipantI read this twice and still don’t understand it…
I believe DY’s point was that it’s not possible that all a kid will eat is peanut butter. If peanut butter simply wasn’t an option, the kid will find something else to eat.
I also didn’t get it at first
MenoParticipantI was planning on staying out of of this, but I just wanted to say one thing.
To all the people insisting that we should make the allergic kids eat lunch alone in a classroom so that the other kids can have peanut butter: that’s called being a jerk.
Schools should be teaching kids not to be jerks.

Kind of like a robot tiger.
June 26, 2017 3:11 pm at 3:11 pm in reply to: Free verse is free verse, and tigers are a gift. 🐅🎁 #1304392MenoParticipantMeno’s untitled.png is definitely about a tiger
June 26, 2017 1:05 pm at 1:05 pm in reply to: Rumor about Ivanka Trump Spurs conversation about Geirus #1303978MenoParticipantAvi K,
Maybe “buissness” was also a Freudian slip
June 26, 2017 12:36 pm at 12:36 pm in reply to: Free verse is free verse, and tigers are a gift. 🐅🎁 #1303967MenoParticipantActually I like this one a bit better:
June 26, 2017 12:03 pm at 12:03 pm in reply to: Free verse is free verse, and tigers are a gift. 🐅🎁 #1303935MenoParticipantThis:
MenoParticipantMy grandmother eats sushi. Does that mean I’m allowed to eat it?
MenoParticipantI am fairly certain that there is no correlation between peanut allergies and sport injuries.
There might be an analogy, but not a correlation.
June 23, 2017 10:50 am at 10:50 am in reply to: Switching to the metric system is a bad idea #1302925MenoParticipantWell obviously 5/16″
June 23, 2017 8:55 am at 8:55 am in reply to: Dealing with the refrigerator light on Shabbos #1302888MenoParticipantI also use a magnet.
I use it to stick a big piece of paper on the fridge that says “DON’T FORGET TO TAKE OUT THE LIGHT BULB BEFORE SHABBOS”
MenoParticipantSo use decimal inches instead of fractions.
MenoParticipantHot potato Orange juice
That sounds delicious
MenoParticipantOh I see.
I thought the umbrella was inverted (concave up) so that the water would collect inside.
Now I get it.
June 22, 2017 10:57 am at 10:57 am in reply to: Dealing with the refrigerator light on Shabbos #1302375MenoParticipantEh, probably more like a couple of years
June 22, 2017 10:22 am at 10:22 am in reply to: Dealing with the refrigerator light on Shabbos #1302355MenoParticipantit was the last bag
They sell sugar at Bingo
MenoParticipantWait. This is a real thing?
June 22, 2017 10:13 am at 10:13 am in reply to: Dealing with the refrigerator light on Shabbos #1302331MenoParticipantWhy don’t you get the bulb with the built-in 7 day timer?
Those don’t exist and it would be impossible to make one so don’t even think of trying.
Though you could probably just use a bag of sugar
MenoParticipantWhat if her birthday were December 25?
MenoParticipantWouldn’t it fill up with water?
June 22, 2017 9:01 am at 9:01 am in reply to: Dealing with the refrigerator light on Shabbos #1302218MenoParticipantWe just take out the bulb and leave it out forever.
You get used to it pretty quickly and it’s not worth the risk of forgetting about it before shabbos.
MenoParticipantWhy not just stick with the imperial system?
June 21, 2017 11:04 am at 11:04 am in reply to: Have you ever met a woman who doesn’t want to have her own children? #1301446MenoParticipantSyag,
Thanks. Believe it or not, I was bothered by that as well.
June 21, 2017 10:05 am at 10:05 am in reply to: Have you ever met a woman who doesn’t want to have her own children? #1301290MenoParticipantI think what’s bothering Syag is that lightbrite said “infinity percent”, and Syag knows that infinty is not a number, so that term makes no sense.
Do I understand correctly?
MenoParticipant1. Yes
I don’t know about the rest
MenoParticipantI think it’s the most common one. I don’t think I’ve seen any other brands
