J.J. is full of it and I am happy to think that intelligent blacks do not like him at all. He truly is a disgrace to his race.

He's always got his money grubbing hand in a lot of dirty pots. Guess he is also a part of the Dailey machine, that's why he ran down to Florida to rally the blacks, saying they were kept away from the polls. His blackmailing days are gone..businesses should have nothing to do with him. He has done more to hurt the black cause than anyone else.

...plus 15% FICA... I'm not any kind of an expert at all in tax matters, but I thought that FICA only applies to "earned" income, not unearned income like the "gift" money of $1,000,000 that they split. They didn't expect it and were not trying for it, so shouldn't it be exempt from FICA tax? Depending on where they file taxes from, they will be liable for any applicable State Income Tax. They may also be eligible for some form of income averaging over a period of years. I still have my doubts about him being a $19k construction worker. He must be a pretty bad one. An ex son-in-law of mine made $40k+ just working 5 months a year driving a water truck, and calling him average would be undue exaggerated praise. Joe Half-Millionaire will be on one of those commercials one day saying, "I'm not a real construction worker, but I did play one on TV". Chas
