Tax queries, etc.
There is debate in the Star Chamber about where questions and suggestions about Tax should should be posted.
I have suggested extending the Stock Market Forum to include questions and suggestions about Employment, (careers, jobs, self employment, etc.), and Tax. (It looks like a specific new Forum for Tax only is not on the cards.) Others think the Zoo is the place for Tax posts. Could you give an indication of your preference, please? Any other appropriate comments are welcome in this thread. Thank you.

Re: Tax queries, etc.
please put them in another forum. people come to this forum asking about tax credits and legal devices for lowering taxes and you get a thread full of monkeys screaming "JUST PAY YOUR TAXES!" it would be nice if the stock market forum grew into a finances/investing forum because there are alot of people here who have alot of money and no knowledge of what to do with it. taxes represent a gigantic portion of the ev in our gambling. if you can lower your taxes from 40% to 34% thats alot of money to the people here making 6 digits. we need more information on taxes and when tax threads are created we need more intelligent responders and less dim-witted patriots.

Just as an aside, why include "employment", on a site focusing on poker? [/ QUOTE ] Because after going busto playing poker, it's something one must consider. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

[/ QUOTE ] It's supposed to be a broad term, covering careers, jobs, self employment, full-time poker-playing, etc. There are often posts about such subjects, scattered about the forums because they have no particular home to go to at the moment. (And what's a Stock Market Forum doing here, too?!) [ QUOTE ] How bout a stickie in the zoo. [/ QUOTE ] Same thing. There is no particular home for Tax posts. They pop up everywhere. Personally, I don't see much direct correlation between Internet Gambling and Taxes. Many of the serious (read: "boring") strategy posters don't even look in at the Zoo, (think back to davidross's original zoo comment that named us!), so, unless the forum was renamed IG&T there would be hundreds if not thousands of 2+2 readers who would not think of looking for serious Tax information in the IG Forum.

You know, with everyone leaving the zoo, if the tax questions are put elsewhere, there will not be much to talk about [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] We can still talk about how online poker is rigged and how we're through with this forum.

[/ QUOTE ] Meh, hopefully the first type get moved to Bad Beats, Brags and Variance. I think SMET is a good idea, though I'm not sure what the posters down there would think of it.

[/ QUOTE ] Yeah, and then the zoo can be devoted exclusively to posts about how we're leaving this forum. Might even have to rename it the IGLTF forum.
