If i live in the U.S., can I play online poker at Full Tilt for real money and withdraw it later?
I live in New Mexico and recently signed up at Full Tilt and have been playing for real money. Am I allowed to withdraw this money? I'd like to know because if I can't I will stop playing because it's useless to make money on there if I'm never going to be able to take it out. Thanks in advance.

If I sell a piece of land I own in Mexico, how do I get the money legally to the U.S?

If I sell a piece of land I own in Mexico, how do I get the money legally to the U.S?
What is the process for reporting money to the IRS and what is the best way of making sure that I will not be taxed as much if I were to immediately invest the money in immediately buying land here in the US? The amount of money we're talking about is anywhere between $750,000 or 1,500,000 +. It depends on the sale and buyers. Its not just pocket change.

I'd deposit it into a reputable bank in Mexico and get a debit card and simply spend the money down. How much is it?
2 :
Bank draft. As for how and what to report to the IRS, I'd suggest contacting them directly. Good Luck!
3 :
YIKES!!! For that much money, you need to talk to a tax lawyer before the deal closes ... some kinds of payment options are more taxable than others. If he can save you 5% in taxes, which is quite likely, that would be $37,500 more profit on the lower sale price. Don't try to hide the money ... just do all you can to legally keep your taxes down.

hould I pay taxes in the US from my capital gains in a Mexican account? ?

hould I pay taxes in the US from my capital gains in a Mexican account? ?
I am a Mexican citizen and working in the US with an H1B visa. I have money in Mexico and make capital gains from interests in an account that is in Mexico. I didn't make that money from my work in the US, I had it there before I starting working in the US. I would like to know if I should include those capital gains in my US Tax declaration?

It is in the IRS Code that "worldwide income is inclusive" on the US tax returns. You declare all foreign income in your US tax returns but at the same time you could take deductions on the foreign taxes you paid on those income.
2 :
No, that income is not subject to US taxation under your visa status. Should you become a lawful permanent resident though it WILL become taxable at that point.

Why do taco stands always play circus music and have Mexico flags?

Why do taco stands always play circus music and have Mexico flags?
Why do so many fail health inspections ? Why are they all painted the same color? Would it hurt the taco stand to have a America flag or are they scared to give up their oath to Mexico? Many Mexican Americans complain about the lack of American flags saying the taco stands really want to make money off their oath to Mexico.

To fool the American people into thinking they are getting authentic Mexican cusine......and look at their houses( The ones that have houses) they are painted in the same garish way with Mexi flags and statues Some actually think they are still in Mexico
2 :
They are proud of their heritage. There is nothing wrong with that.
3 :
Geez, why does it matter to you? You obviously have a problem with Mexicans. I think taco stands are good. Is it really hurting you that they play their music? It's better then rap music with all the cuss words. Do you let your children listen to rap music?
4 :
Might be that they think they are still in Mexico. Each time I hear that music here where I live, I look around and wait for a monkey to come over, so I can put some change in his tin cup.
5 :
Because they are very proud of Mexico. They have no intention of ever becoming AMERICANS, which is why they have no business being here. If you love Mexico so much, do us all a huge favor and go back.
6 :
Well, tacos are an invention of mexico. They all fail inspections cause they don't care about regulations, that's the way things work in mexico. This is a big issue, they put mexico flags because they want to make clear it's mexican food, also, they are so proud to be mexicans, the question is, what are they doing here then? If it's america who is feeding them, they should pay some respect. yeah that too,... you put a Mexico flag, and you will attract more mexicans. Hehhe, it;s not circus music, it's some kind of regional or mexican country music.
7 :
they should have the american flag on the stand. when i lived i chicago i saw the mexicans having their parades. they had the american flag above theirs. i knew those was the ones who called america home. the ones who sell off the stands is most likely selling drugs also. why else would they have it painted like that. and their flag on it.
8 :
Why don't you ask one of the Taco Stands owners why? I don't know Bill and I think there are far more important issues about illegal aliens than choice of music or stand paint.After all they are selling a certain type of food and that flag just lets people know what type of food.Or warns others to stay away.My city doesn't allow any thing like that but other city's in Arizona do.I have too many real issues with illegal aliens than to worry about tacos.Besides I make my own,they are better and I know I wash my hands.No restaurants are "safe" anymore.You pay your money and you take your chances.....Its a choice isn't it ?
9 :
I am Hispanic and for me it makes me mad when I see these Mexican flags up outside a taco stand restaurant,grocery store etc. I think they forget what country they are in. I will not buy food from taco stands because I never see them wash their hands. The whole Mexican flag thing is ridiculous. This is America and the only flag that should be flying anywhere is an American flag.
10 :
It's a conspiracy
11 :
They are paying homage to their Mexican God, Nacho Libre.
12 :
they have pride to their home country. I believe that the American flag should always be flown first. It doesn't bother me at all, as long as they learn to respect the American Laws.
13 :
LOL @ circus music. I call it carnival music and it is very irritating.

In Mexico, how are the people who go to America for work viewed?

In Mexico, how are the people who go to America for work viewed?
Are they seen as people who are trying to make money for a better life and approved off? Young people going on an adventure and glamorized? Are they seen as unpatriotic people and shamed? Or is it more pragmatic, like good one more job for someone who stays here? Or one less person to deal with here? Any thoughts?

Well, a derogatory term was designed just for those who go to America looking for work--mojado. It means wet, which basically references how the emerge from the Rio Grande river.
2 :
like nothing, like normal people who go to work? what can someone think when they're basically dying of hunger. And no the young people aren't looked at as if they were going to an adventure because they too go to America for the same reasons as the older do, to provide some money for the family.
3 :
not good
4 :
they should feel they abandoned their country and their people to run somewhere they are not wanted or welcome.
5 :
Lucky! with better looking futures and making more money.
6 :
illegal immigrants who come to America come to better themselves financially. They risk their lives to come and look for a low-wage jobs to feed their children. People criticize them without having any knowledge of how severe their problems are in their own country. Many times it is not even a parent that comes. Sometimes it might be the older siblings who come to work so they can support the rest of their family because their own parents are too old, sick or have died. You want them to come legally but that is near impossible. Getting a working permit is not an easy thing. Unless you have political influences or a bank account with a substantial amount of money then you will be denied a permit. Tell me whats the point of coming here as an illegal if you have that? Anybody in their shoes would do anything to be able to feed or clothe their family. You can critize as much as you want but a parent would rather go through hell and back before they see their children going to sleep hungry and waking up the same way... So in answer to your question. People in their own country do not see them unpatriotic they see their need and wish them luck and hope that this will help their family.
7 :
As brave heroes!
8 :
It is so common place I doubt anyone gives it much thought at all. The families are grateful for the help financially.

That is tough. You may try lawn mowing, my 14 year old neighbor is always busy. He charges between $10-20 per lawn, depending on the size. You can also try dog sitting/walking, babysitting, washing cars or taking care of people's plants when they are on vacation. I know kids in ABQ that do all of these things for extra cash. Unfortunately, not a lot of businesses hire kids your age because of the insurance liabilities. For future reference, Kirtland AFB has a summer hire program that you can apply to when you are 16 and ABQ Ride offers service to Kirtland, in case you are still saving for a car then or gas is $6 a gallon. Good luck.

Why doesn't the US make Mexico part of the US?

Why doesn't the US make Mexico part of the US?
We have many companies that moved to Mexico for lower wages. If we took Mexico into our country, and raised cost to companies that left the US. That would be plenty of money across the board. It would take care of all problems. We would just have to work out how the governing bodies will be set up.

We had a chance in 1848.

probably i good idea
3 :
We kind of already have. Texas could also be known as North Mexico.
4 :
For the same reason most women don't seek out drunken bums to marry.
5 :
Because Mexico doesnt want to be part of the united states of america. They are their own country with their own set off laws and taxes.
6 :
and take on all of their problems? No Thanks . . . besides, they have nothing to offer us . . . if there were big time oil reserves down there, trust me, Bush would've invaded in '01.
7 :
They probably don't want to. Why do you think it is your decision to make? That is why countries have armies, to defend themselves from people and states that think like you do. How would you think if China decided to cross the water and make the USA part of China, Since they are selling you all the things you own anyhow.
8 :
Probably because the US of A would have to take on, Mexico's pay. We can't afford to live on 10. a week. and they can't afford minimum wage there.
9 :
Not gonna happen in this life time. Imagine the amount of people rushing to get welfare. It would be worse that Puerto Rico. That filthy little island shouldn't even be a commonwealth. All it they do is breed and run to the states for welfare then run back to live fat on our tax dollars. Mexico would be far worse because they have a larger population but on the plus side they are a better class of people than puerto ricans.
10 :
That's a bad idea. Think of all the language problems. Everyone's salaries would go down. All our hospitals and services would be overrun and fail. It would be a mess. No thanks. I like the U.S. as it is.
11 :
Why should we.when it seems like most of THEIR citizens are here ALREADY??!!!
12 :
if you look at it long term, and make it say a 20 year project and not bring in mexico as one huge state, but bring in mexico slowly, mexican state by mexican state, and teach them english and american values, it is actually a really good idea, it'll be a slow process, where everybody can win, mexicans have nothing to lose, hey only gain from such a proposal, except they will have to start calling themselves Americans and English is becoming an international language anyway, and I dont see why they cant be bi-lingual anyway. and then the Union will have probably about 80 or 90 states. its really a good idea when you really think about it.
13 :
Duh! That's already happened! Texas, California, New Mexico, Arizona, etc. were all part of the Mexican Nation, until we took it from them! H
14 :
That would be like having a nice cold glass of milk and adding mud to it.
15 :
Good question. They should. Not only was California once owned by Mexico, but Mexico is close enough that it could be our 51st or 52nd state. But I guess, the Federal government in Washington D.C. doesn't want to take that action.They're lazy.
16 :
VERY FUNNY.ACTUALLY MEXICANS SAY THAT THEY ARE GOING TO MAKE ALL WESTERN STATES PART OF MEXICO BY SENDING MILLIONS ACROSS THE BORDER.THEY HAVE FRIENDLY PRESIDENT AND SENATE IN AMERICA.
17 :
We didn't steal jack s***. And Mexico pretty much already is here.It's called L.A.,Arizona,Texas. They are everywhere and moving up through the states. Too damn many of them. How can anyone justify them being here illegally?You must think it is ok to go steal cars,because they must need one real bad,rape because they need that too,and murder must not be any big deal since he probably needed to be killed right? If you can justify 1 than you are justifying it all And there is no justifying any of it!!! They sneak here they do not walk in properly and some of you think this is OK? I don't get that. I am all for it through legal channels but they are a drain on OUR country's systems and yes many are on welfare,and criminals. They pop out a kid every 9 months so they can stay since their kids are legal citizens.Isn't that precious.It isn't like that in any other country in the world but here.After all it isn't the kids fault so we would be punishing them by sending them all home!! They don't belong here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Get a visa get a job. No visa ADIOS!!!!
18 :
hahah didnt you have enough by stealing 8 states.. poor ignorants
19 :
YOU HAVING SUCH GOOD IDEA

That's funny you might as well say we already have!
