4/14 Okay, here is a hard tax question. If I give someone stock I purchased at, say $2, can I get around paying taxes on it that way. I know they will have to pay taxes on the gains, but is this an easy way to get around having to pay capital gains tax? |

4/14 Okay, here is another wierd tax question. If I give someone stock I purchase at, say $2, can I get around paying taxes on it that way? I know they will have to pay taxes on the gains, but is this an easy way to get around having to pay sort term capital gains tax? The current value of the stock is $100. \_ you will still be taxed if you give stock as a gift \_ Gift tax only applies after $10k/year per person. \_ Additionally, you will be taxed extra if you give gifts worth more than $10k/year. \_ you should just stop being such a ho and pay your taxes. \_ How about if we re-phrase thusly: I bought shares of a stock in 1999. The stock pays no dividends. The stock increased in value. The total value of the shares is under $10,000. I gifted all the shares that year to a friend. I know I can't deduct any of the gift, and I know there is no gift tax for this amount. Do I have to pay short-term capital gains, anyway? I did not own any of this stock at the end of 1999. \_ Thanks for clarifying for me, whoever you are. |

4/15 Just installed NS6/Mozilla M14 under Win98 -- is this really Java as it seems to be? If so, why? If not, why the hell do standard Win clipboard functions not work in any of the dialogs? And in either case, why did they decide to go against the standard UI? \_ I think the fact that all NS6 does is show me a splash screen is *rad*. -sameer \_ NS6 uses the gecko engine to render html, and such. It turns out that gecko is fast enough to be used as a general UI rendering engine. There is probably some political anti-Microsoft statement \_ has anyone figured out the actual exploit for this? \_ There's no remote exploit. Go read some mailing lists. in there too. \_ Such as "!oot ,seineew era sreenigne tfosorciM"? \_ Yes, dumbshit. It isn't release code.
