Okay. I need someone to explain this to me, and not as a riddle.
I have inherited many stocks, whose cost bases are ridiculously low. Selling them would be suicidal. But at the same time I have always done estimated taxes. Now, everyone knows if you pay in excess to the IRS, you don't get interest on that overpayment. Underpay? Penalty! So...what does one do, knowing that the dividend checks are going to be substantially less than last year's 1099 figures? Any answers? |

I have been taught to never put all your money up-front before the job is done.
Now government wants to pay up BEFORE the cause of the problem is even identified. Certainly, no member of congress that has taken "donations" from these housing pirates has been investigated yet. |

There is only one answer to that question. You have to do the hard work of going through each one and look up dividend news on the internet. You may have to make some estimated guesses as to how much you will get, and then add up all the expected dividends and plug them into some tax software that will give you an idea of what you will owe. |

Well, Lance my accountant is clueless, and my father, who's an attorney, doing estate work in his latter years (95)is equally perplexed.
Bottom line, I suppose, is why give stuff to a government that was created by geniuses and now run by idiots? |
The difference is that they are putting up your money before the job is done, not like it's their money. |

Yup, there's no shortage of clueless accountants, lawyers, even doctors. On the other hand, there are some very bright and talented people who can help with taxes, health matters, personal problems, and all sorts of tribulations. Ya gotta shop around and find what's right for you, just like in many other regards. |

1 "The money powers prey upon the nation in times of peace and conspire against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than a monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy. It denounces, as public enemies, all who question its methods or throw Light upon its crimes. I have two great enemies, the Southern Army in front of me and the bankers in the rear. Of the two, the one at my rear is my greatest foe... corporations have been enthroned, and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until the wealth is aggregated in the hands of a few, and the Republic is destroyed." ~President Abraham Lincoln ________ “You are a Den of vipers I intend to rout you out, and by the Eternal God I will rout you out. If the people only understood the rank injustice of our money and banking system, there would be a revolution before morning” ~President Andrew Jackson __________ “I am concerned for the security of our great nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working form within.” ~ General Douglas MacArthur __________ “The Order’s working and involvement in America is immense. The real rulers in Washington are invisible and exercise power from behind the scenes.” ~Felix Frankfurter US Supreme Court __________ “I believe that if the people of this nation fully understood what congress has done to them over the last 49 years, they would move on Washington, they would not wait for an election.... It adds up to a preconceived plan to destroy the economic and social independence of the Untied states” ~ George W. Malone, US Senator (Nevada) __________ “The real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the larger centers has owned the government since the days of Andrew Jackson. In Politics nothing happens by accident, if it happens, you can be sure we planned it that way” ~President Franklin Roosevelt __________ “Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.” ~President Woodrow Wilson __________ “I am a most unhappy man, I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all of our activities are in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the worst ruled one of the most completely controlled and dominated governments in the civilized world. No longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men.” ~President Woodrow Wilson _________ “It is not my intention to doubt that the doctrine of the Illuminati and the principles of Jacobinism had not spread in the United States. On the contrary, no one is more satisfied of this fact that I am.” ~George Washington. |

Since you inherited these stocks, you would have had to pay state tax on them. Since they are now devalued, and if you'd decide to sell them, you woul get a tax credit for the amount of the loss. I'd hold on to them for now, unless you desperately need the cash, the market in general will eventually go up. |

My personal opinion on GW is; worst pres in history, however I do give him credit for trying to establish restrictions on Feddie Mac and Fannie Mae by makeing them accountable a couple of years back. He was voted down by the dumocrats. I don't think much of Mc Cain either, but he tried the same thing, and couldn't get it thru dumocrats led by Chris Dodd, Frank, Schumer--the same @$$holes putting blame on everyone else. Dodd and Obame were the top two reciepients of big donations from these lending institutions. Don't tell me that it didn't swing their vote to regulate them!! They are not the only ones at fault, but a big part of it. I'm going to sit this election out --- first time in 45 years.

According to Wikipedia, a WARNING prophecy (concerning Obama being the wrong man for president) was given over 43 years ago.
THE WOMEN HAVE BEEN PERMITTED TO VOTE. AND IN VOTING, SOMEDAY THEY LL ELECT THE WRONG MAN. by William Marrion Branham who died 24th December, 1965 in Friona, Texas. Branham prophesied in February 1964 the Good Friday, Prince William Sound, Alaska earthquake, which struck with a magnitude 9.2 force.(There is well documented evidence elsewhere and noted references in Wikepedia for research). This scene is busy being played out in the USA elections. The women who once voted for Hillary Clinton are presently showing their allegiance towards Barack Hussain Obama, which is not a good thing and hopefully this warning has not come too late. With either candidate America is going to face future problems but the one candidate will make matters far worse than the other. Too great a change is not always good and can unsettle an already unsettled and troubled nation. Obama possibly winning the USA elections may be one of the many important elements causing so much unsettlement in the USA economy and world-wide. Strange that much of the crises has surfaced since he has decided to run for office and is worsening as time moves closer. The novelty of voting for a black man will wear off and one will be down to basics and reality on the ground. Each person is influenced by ones background and sympathy towards their own race/races which can have disastrous consequences for those who are of the opposite race or those of the black race already residing in America. The right person as president (in this case McCain) can pick up the pieces and move towards healing the economy, sorting out homes, giving back jobs. He will sort the situation out without making things worse in such troubled times. Troubled times are not the right time to change things drastically and still rely on the thought pattern of someone who has had so much turmoil in his own life. Dont believe that everything will just come right over night as politics is not magic. That is not reality - and what Americans are doing is trying to live out a dream. Remember prophecy can change if America wakes up in time. Biblical prophecy already written cannot change. Prevention is better than cure. PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE. |
