[17:21] DaemonFC It locks in a decent rate for 11 months and they're hoping things settle. In the mean time, they need to make sure depositors don't put a run on the bank. [17:24] DaemonFC They have to compete with what people can get by yanking their deposits and putting them in short term government bonds. [17:27] DaemonFC mjg59_, How do you feel about all of these California tech companies that broke Illinois law and now they're finding out that they are on the hook for millions in damages? [17:27] DaemonFC Fakebook tried to remove it to a court in California to be thrown out and lost and paid out a fuckton of money and now the rest of them in line are just settling. [17:29] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR], By my count, Fakebook and about half a dozen other companies that were broadly collecting biometrics have stopped or significantly scaled back after losing BIPA lawsuits. [17:29] DaemonFC I was monitoring the Lemonade SEC stuff from after I sued them. [17:29] DaemonFC They've told investors that they're scuttling the "collecting facial recognition to enhance anti-fraud AI". [17:30] DaemonFC It's terrific that people like JWZ and mjg59_ defame and belittle me, because you know, they work for these companies that are part of the problems. [17:30] DaemonFC Like taking jobs away from people and producing spyware. [17:30] DaemonFC And I'm part of the group suing to put a limit on what they can do, at least here. [17:31] DaemonFC I'm just going to have to start stamping corporate logos on the wall like a fighter pilot stamping swastikas for downed Nazi planes or something. :P [17:34] DaemonFC They said they would let me know if they needed me to testify against Lemonade. [17:35] DaemonFC But the case settled out way before that when Lemonade realized it would cost about $5 million to just throw the case or potentially $100 million in damages to go to court and lose. [17:36] DaemonFC It takes a lot of effort to go to court and win because you have to gather a jury and have all of these proceedings. So you may be able to get $5,000 in damages from Lemonade if you do but attorneys fees would go up and there's always the chance the jury would disagree. [17:37] DaemonFC The biggest piece of evidence against Lemonade was their description of their business in EDGAR (the SEC's program) and an admission of guilt on Twitter. [17:37] DaemonFC Which they argued wasn't a guilty statement, but it probably was. [17:38] DaemonFC One of their executives boasted about their proprietary business model spying on people and collecting their facial expressions during the claims process.

[17:40] DaemonFC It's usually worth about $1,000-$1,600 a year in additional income. [17:40] MinceR :) [17:41] DaemonFC I explained to the IRS last year on an attached sheet explaining the additional income by court case, docket number, and amount from each settlement. [17:41] DaemonFC That was really most of the "work". [17:41] DaemonFC They don't normally send you a 1099 for the income unless it goes over $600, but you still have a duty to report it on that line and pay tax on it. [17:41] DaemonFC So I do. [17:42] DaemonFC Reporting income where there was no 1099 generally includes every sort of income you could possibly have. [17:43] DaemonFC So technically if you pick up a $1 bill on the street, you're supposed to include it on that Schedule and attach an explainer. "Found $1 on sidewalk. August 1, 2022." or something. [17:43] *AdmFubar has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) [17:44] DaemonFC MinceR, So there was a person on Reddit that was complaining that their landlord wanted their tenants to put the rent money on PayPal under Friends and Family so he wouldn't have to pay taxes on it. [17:44] MinceR :) [17:45] DaemonFC I told them to just go ahead and do that, but to fill out a "Suspicious Activity Report" for "Unpaid Taxes" and attach a photocopy of the letter from the landlord and mail it to the Treasury. [17:45] DaemonFC Land him with a nice big fat tax audit. [17:45] DaemonFC Once they find all your dirty laundry from one year, they usually go back and check the 5 years before that too! [17:46] DaemonFC Then they decide how much you underreported, if it was a "substantial amount" which can trigger fines and criminal charges, and add interest, and send you the bill. [17:47] DaemonFC Like the IRS understands there's a difference between forgetting to attach a 1099 that says you owed them $50 that year and trying to hide $20,000 somewhere. Which is what it sounds like this landlord is doing.

[18:00] DaemonFC They may take in more money, but the loss multiple stays roughly the same or gets worse. [18:01] DaemonFC MinceR, "We'll just lose ten times as much next year and go to a bank that was springing rapists and murderers from jail because of DIE when we need more!" [18:02] DaemonFC The whole scheme with companies like this is to see how long you can technically remain in business with the "important people" continuing to pull down a salary. [18:02] DaemonFC When things get bad, you lay people off, but continue bleeding because nothing fundamental has changed except that there's less people working there.

It's a No Penalty CD. [21:00] DaemonFC You can cash it out whenever you want, as long as you wait 6 days. [21:00] DaemonFC The rate's not that much different than it is on a normal CD with early withdrawal penalties. [21:01] DaemonFC Essentially, it's as liquid as a Savings Account, almost, except that you can earn about 4.75% on the No Penalty CD for 11 months and take it out any time you want and lose nothing/ [21:01] DaemonFC The Savings Accounts only pay 3.75%. [21:02] DaemonFC I talked to the man from the bank before I set them up and he told me you only have to wait 6 days to break it, and you keep all of the money and accrued interest if you do break it. [21:02] DaemonFC But you can't add or withdraw partial amounts. Has to be the original deposit amount for the life of the CD, and if you take it you have to take it all. [21:03] DaemonFC So I have most of our Savings in No Penalty CDs now because why not? [21:03] DaemonFC It's only slightly less flexible than the Savings Account. [21:04] DaemonFC But they have to pay me the higher rate, locked in for 11 months, or until I choose to break it with no penalty. [21:04] DaemonFC If I break it, it'll either be because something awful happened and I need the money or because there's a higher rate than 4.75% on a No Penalty CD, so I break these and buy new ones. [21:06] DaemonFC So it's pretty much like any other CD except that for a marginally lower rate of interest than a 12 month CD (which has 5%) I have options. [21:11] DaemonFC Breakable CDs are sort of like the best of both worlds. You get higher interest rates than Savings, and you get to lock those rates in, but you can also break them if the interest rates on a fresh CD get higher, and there's no punishment for it.

[21:18] DaemonFC I mean, yeah if your state taxes income then you save on whatever that rate is with Treasuries, but it's a very small benefit. [21:18] DaemonFC And Treasuries don't typically let you cash them in early. [21:19] DaemonFC If you live in a state where your income tax rate is like whoa, you might consider Treasuries because the relative advantage is bigger. [21:19] DaemonFC Every state that adopts a Progressive Income Tax later has a top tax bracket that's 2-3 times what the flat rate was, and the bottom rate is almost always higher than the flat rate was.
