It''s not a 50% tax. 50% of the capital gains is taxable. If you made $10k in capital gains, then $5k is taxable, I think it's taxed as income, and that depends on your tax bracket

The taxable half counts as income so it can bump you up to a different tax bracket. The other half doesn't affect your tax bracket. It's split in half because the other half is not counted as income and is not taxed. Why they do it like this I have no idea. But it means the tax rate isn't that bad and it won't effect your tax bracket as much as it would if it was all taxable at a lower percentage

>> No.21155540

>>21155292
probably because it means people would get fucked over with it being lumped in with income tax. If 50% of the asset you get to keep then it sort of negates that fact that you might be placed into a higher income tax bracket.

>> No.21155637

Another thing, the capital losses can carry over indefinitely. If you lost $400k in 2018, you can keep subtracting off your capital gains in subsequent years and you never have to pay tax or count it as income until your capital gains are in the green again

This is my thinking at least. I maybe don't give the UK enough credit. Here e have three tax catagories: Income, capital gains and miscellaneous. For each you get a £12300 tax free 'allowance'. Essentially, you could work a part time job earning 12300 a year, make 12300 a year on real letting real estate and 12300 selling assets. That's £36900 ($48000) tax free.

No you could get paid entirely in bitcoin, you still owe income tax on it. It can be harder for the government to audit you but not impossible. It wasn't like this when bitcoin first showed up because nobody knew what it was or how to handle it but there's plenty of laws for crypto now

Simply purchasing and holding cryptocurrency is not taxable though. You can use this to your advantage by laundering it through a privacy coin and trading it on an exchange not tied to your identity, then you won't need to pay tax on trades because the government won't know about it

>> No.21156569

does your country also give you 50% of your money back when you lose on an investment?

At that point, what's even the fucking point. Imagine if you played roulette at a casino and when you lose, you lose all the money down, but when you win, you only win half. What a load of shit.

Its 2x the minimum tax exempt amount, which is 13k I think, so 26k a year tax free if you have no income, otherwise whatever you take out uses your tax bracket at 50% of the amount.

Can they still go after you if you opt to leave country to another one without extradition laws?

Like I said CostaRica has for a very long time a lower tax rate and historically has been a decent destination to launder money.

I thought those ATMs were only for taking your dollars and giving you bitcoin, not the other way around.
Either way, the ridiculous fees on those pieces of shit make it not worth it. Especially since you're now stuck with a barrel of physical cash and still have to figure a way to launder it. But laundered money will still have to be reported, so you're still fucked unless you literally want to pay for everything in cash, and even that isn't possible since buying things like cars/houses in cash causes an automatic investigation by the feds

Some you can cash out, I know only because I had a friend who chose to cash out of an online betting site with btc and used an atm to withdraw it. I think the fees are over 10%, like 15% I think but I dont remember. Plus they all have cameras so you would have to wear a disguise when cashing out.
