Jerome,
Actually the 20% cap gains rate is fine for me. What they need to do is increase the $3000 cap for losses. Perhaps $300,000 would be a start. I am only half joking. Why is there a limitation on the losses when gains are unlimited? If this year continues this way, we will all be asking that question. Mike

PS BTW, Does your employer(car wash) have a 201k plan?

I hear there is a job opening at the local car wash. Do I have to declare those tips?

You think, in this economy, people are going to tip you??

Come to think of it, do you think they will even go there for a car wash? Didnt you hear, the car wash laid off 10 of their 12 people?
