You should know all about the supreme court rulings that were never overturned regarding 'income'. Study up peasant.

Hey Mr. V how's that bridge doing man?
What "bridge?"

As for taxes viz. income ... I wasn't a tax attorney but I did my own taxes every year til about four or so years ago, then I got a CPA to do it.

I DO know that if in fact you won more than you lost you would report the gambling winnings as misc. income on your 1040, and subtract your losses as an itemized deduction on Schedule A...at least back when I did my own taxes, that's how I reported it and the IRS never questioned nor audited my returns.

Then again, I have heard tales of gamblers claiming to be professional gamblers and filing as such, necessitating Schedule C: obviously I never did that as I play for fun, for the stimulation of it; my having worked hard for years at a good job, keeping my nose clean and saving / investing wisely has given me the ability to do so, and as I am disciplined and don't go on tilt I rarely get hosed , but it does happen.

Hello, variance.

You claim to have been a winner for years, so presumably you filed the appropriate returns and they should be available for review, albeit they'd only reflect your claimed wins / overall profit from card counting.

Although I am a recreational player I have paid taxes on gambling winnings in excess of losses for the past couple years, so yeah, luck happens.

Sorry sport, but you smarmy attitude, your need to be seen as the GOAT completely shoots your credibility to hell.

Perhaps were you less of a "Look at me, look at me" kind of fellow I might take you seriously, but that simply isn't the case: as they say "You're a legend in your own mind."

Now, get off my lawn...
ZK all these rats have are schemes to try, and dox or rat you out to their god Biden or the Casinos. This is why taxes and verification of income come up time and time again. They are confined to slave mind thinking.

Once you get your roll north of 500k look into investing some money into real estate. Do it with the goal of putting in enough time to qualify as a real estate professional. It’s easy enough to do and once you start looking into the benefits it’s a no brainer. Don’t get caught up in thinking like these morons who file professionally for their Pride like rat fink red. It’s not about what you fucking make it’s about how much you keep. Most of these fucking idiots have zero idea. O and don’t worry about employment history or verification of income in regards to buying investment properties. There’s Plenty of lenders out there who will loan you solely based on the deal value with 20 percent down. Easy game if you have cash . Gl and Fuck these rats
