is going down the proverbial sh*thole with so many rich actors and entrepreneurs. Why is that?

And I read somewhere, can't remember now, but you know...we used to tell our kids to keep that basketball/football/baseball dream or music dream in the basement while pursuing a higher education because it might not pan out or provide a lifetime of income.

I wonder about that advice now. I guess it is best to be an actor, sports player or music producer/artist.

The current rate maxes out at 40 percent. But Hillary Clinton and her husband Bill have created a number of tax shelters in recent years to dramatically limit their payment of the very same tax. As Bloomberg reported back in 2014: “To reduce the tax pinch, the Clintons are using financial planning strate ...

News: German intelligence has the details, and they’re extensive and explicit, and several Republican U.S. senators are doing what they can t ...
