So I am chilling at my boring work looking across the street at this bum, he has this sign "will work for food".  He walks up and I am thinking yea right no onw will stop for him.  Dude, am I wrong.  There is a line of cars in this parking lot waiting to give him stuff.  I have seen money, boxes of food, fast food.  Wow, thats so crazy.  i have only lived here in South East  Idaho (yes it sucks here but its one step closer to Jackson).  It's just crazy, he could make a living almost off of that.

i saw some thing on tv recently where they interviewed a couple of "professional peddlers".  these people (2) made almost 100,000 in a year by just asking for money.  thats insane.

So would that be considered tax free?  I mean, they are donations.  Imagine making $100,000 a year tax free.

well technically the income should be subjected to the gift tax, but i can't imagine that people who have a career as a professional peddler even file tax returns.  100k a year tax free would be fucking awesome.
