I have paid over $10B in taxes in a single year, more than anyone in history.
If I exercise and sell stock options, the combined federal and state income tax is ~45% (I still pay California taxes for every day I spend there).
Then there is another 40% tax paid on my estate when I die.
Overall, I will probably end up paying trillions in taxes.
Jaylen Brown on Joel Embiid:
“We didn't really have the answers for him. We tried a bunch of different things. He's a big body. He also was flopping around. He got some extra calls ... they rewarded him for that, but that's the league we’re in.”
@williammmmc@FastbreakHoops5 That's right!! Still , who the f.. would beat a team with Doncic, Jokic, Wembenyama, and the Greek freak ?? If you think someone will beat this team, you might not know too much basketball.
@williammmmc@FastbreakHoops5 They didn't really play in the all star game, but if they really do play, no American team can beat this team, NONE. How about SGA , isn't he European ?
@FastbreakHoops5 Do you intentionally make this Europe so that SGA couldn't be included? Also, Isn't this the team that lost at the All-Star game? 🤣🤣
Pick any 5 guys from the U.S Olympic roster and they win a 7 game series with ease.
@PlayoffSports_ Is it me or is JJ a bad coach ? Luka bailed him out big time this year, and I really think the Lakers should fire him this off-season, and I really think they will. Mark this post.
Stephen A. this morning said Luka Doncic was faking his injury after the team was getting blown out, per @FirstTake 🤦♂️
“It was almost so that it’s a good thing that Luka actually got hurt and had to get taken out in the 3rd quarter because when we saw him holding his hamstring in the first half a lot of was like, wait a minute now that wasn’t happening when you were dropping 30+ the last 15 games. But suddenly now your damn hamstring is hurt.”
Now he’s out indefinitely for the year…
🇮🇱 Israel PM Netanyahu —
“North Korea has Nuclear warheads but they don’t say ‘Death to America’. Iran is 50 North Koreas.”
Imagine being a small country like North Korea, but both US & Israel are hell scared of you 🤣🔥
