I would put self-employed and then when I get audited(which I probably would as someone who is "self-employed" and makes a ton of money) I would just show them my winnings at the online sportsbooks. It's NOT illegal to gamble online using offshores. It's only illegal for banks to knowingly process gambling transactions.

#219Of course it is illegal based on a 50 year law that was written before the Internet existed and since 99.5% of connections are wireless, isn't it impossible to apply now?

#220I would avoid putting self employed because you have to pay self employment tax on it which on 50k net income would be almost an extra 8k.Originally posted by illfuuptnI would put self-employed and then when I get audited(which I probably would as someone who is "self-employed" and makes a ton of money) I would just show them my winnings at the online sportsbooks.

Why not put it as other income gambling winnings and if it makes you feel more comfortable, report your gross winnings there and claim the losses as an itemized deduction. Day traders don't pay self employment tax as far as I know, so why should you?Comment -

#221Set up a corporation that does the betting, and pay yourself through that structure. There are some crazy things you can legally do, but you'll add 5k in overhead a year. If you make 100k+ a year, it's worth getting a tax attorney to set up things.Originally posted by TheCentaurI would avoid putting self employed because you have to pay self employment tax on it which on 50k net income would be almost an extra 8k.

#223That helps if the corp. pays you dividends instead of earned income, but legally you aren't supposed to do that, it is supposed to be subject to social security and med whether you pay half and the corp pays half or you forget the corp and do a schedule c and pay all.Originally posted by Justin7Set up a corporation that does the betting, and pay yourself through that structure.

I suppose it is an advantage that the half the corporation paid could be claimed as a deduction, but not that big of one. I think that's what you are talking about.Comment -

#226Hey here is an idea Justin7. Do you think someone could set it up so that the starting bankroll for the year is the initial investment into a fund, and then the net gain on the last day of the year are long term capital gains so the lower tax rate applies?Comment -

#228These are the real problems. I suppose if you can show several years of tax returns showing income it would help, but they would never look at it near as favorably as regular income, and I would suspect you would have problems.Originally posted by brahmabull117okay here's another question

#235+1.Originally posted by BeatTheJerkYou're currently feeling the gambling high as far as winning goes. It will cause your brain to think you are invincible, but in actuality your not. You are just on a nice little run and that's all it should be. We are not gonna convince you to become tout, and to become a tout you need to have a bigger track record than one baseball season, and if you rebuttal with yeah I won in other years too it doesn't matter. It wasn't documented so it means dog shit. Words of advice ........... " Just keep your f u c k i n g mouth shut" during your streak of success. Cash in and be humble because you will not win like this for the rest of your life.Comment -

#238touting isn't about being good at making picks. It's about "touting" yourself. Making crap look like gold. You have make everything seem 100 times better then what they really are. If you aren't a car salesman then you won't make it. You have to want to take everyone's last dime no matter if you are doing good or not.Comment -

From memory he was betting $20 per game and was thinking about leaving school to do it full time? Can't really remember his story because it was a while back, when Sam (?) was on a run in the NBA and everyone used to go on that chat site etc.
