How cool is this!

Re: How cool is this!

A good friend of mine here in NYC whom I hadn't seen in about 3 months or so called me up today out of the blue to have lunch, saying he had big news.

Did he happen to say where he'd been the past 3 or so months, perchance?

And before you ask, yes, there's a solid reasoning behind me asking you this

Pattycakes, I'm don't keep *******s for friends. After all, I'm not friends with you.

Reismark, it wasn't Survivor.

i don't know about US tax laws, but in the UK you don't have to pay tax on any income unless you live in the county a set ammount of time (per tax year), is it the same in the US? if so your friend may find a few months in Bora Bora very rewarding!

[Boris Godunov]

I'm not jealous, either.








Ok, that's a lie. I'm very happy for him. But dammit, I WANT THAT MILLION DOLLARS!!!!

[Bereta_Eder]

Im glad you're dont keep *******s for friends after all


Besides I always thought friendship goes deeper than that

Im just teazing you you fool. dont get all excited

Reismark, it wasn't Survivor.

Damn, you figured out what I was thinking

What other show could it have been though... there aren't that many other game shows out there with both $1,000,000 prizes and privacy concerns big enough for you to conceal this information from us

reds4ever,

US tax law is more... demanding. They tax you on anything and everything.

I keep *******s for friends (whatever those asterisks represent?!), that's why I come here

[Boris Godunov]

Resimark, he's already had a couple of shysters track him down and try to solicit money from him, so he's being very cautious about it and doesn't want his information broadcasted. It wouldn't be very hard for people to find out who he is if I gave away the show.

i'm pretty sure it's 9 months in the UK, a lot of big business men just leave for the continent for 3 months and don't pay a penny in tax all year!
