Philly sports fan. Every day I walk a fine line between sarcasm and passive aggression.

@sepinwall I attended a Rod Serling lecture at college in Rochester in 1973. He was honest (he hated Night Gallery), funny, and unprintably profane. The only thing missing was his cigarette bc the room was smoke free.

Movie Law: When you are skeptical about the dish you’ve been offered because you don’t like the person who made it, you will reluctantly take a single bite — and that’s when you must say, “Oh my God, that’s literally the best chicken [lasagna, burger, whatever] I’ve ever had…”

@KurtSupeCPA As I understand it, there would be no gift tax anyway. As long as you report it (over 38K) and do not exceed (starting this year) 15M dollars lifetime. What am I missing.

Their granddaughter was about to bury herself in $200K of student debt. Ron and Marie—ages 72 and 70, sitting on $4.2M—were going to let it happen. Not because they didn't care. Because they thought they couldn't help without major tax consequences. Emma just got accepted to Syracuse. Cost: $68K/year. Four years: $272K total. Her parents made too much for financial aid but not enough to cover it. Emma was looking at $200K+ in loans. At 6% interest, that's $2,200/month for 10 years. Or she could stretch it to 20 years at $1,500/month. Either way, she'd be paying off college until she was in her 40s. Ron told me, "We've got more money than we'll ever spend, and we're going to watch her drown in debt for 20 years? That doesn't make sense." But they thought writing a $68K check would blow past gift limits and create a tax mess. Here's what I showed them: If they write Emma a $68K check directly, yeah—they're over the $38K annual limit as a couple. But if they write that same check directly to Syracuse University for her tuition? Completely different rule. Payments made directly to educational institutions don't count against gift limits at all. Unlimited. No gift tax. Nothing to report. And in the same year, they could still give Emma $19K each ($38K total) for rent, food, whatever she needs. Ron stopped me. "Wait. We can pay her full tuition and still give her $38K in cash? In the same year?" Yep. The tuition payment doesn't touch gift limits if it goes straight to the school. They wrote the first check that week. $68K to Syracuse's bursar office. Most people with serious wealth let their grandkids take on crushing debt because they think they can't help without tax problems. Then they die and leave money the grandkids don't really need anymore because they've already spent 15 years making loan payments to banks. Ron and Marie flipped that script.
