Title: Happy Tax day: $100K-Plus Earners Pay 72% of Federal Income Taxes
Post by: Coach is Back! on April 15, 2014, 09:36:02 AM



(CNSNews.com) -- Taxpayers earning $100,000 or more a year pay 71.6% of the nation’s share in individual federal income taxes, according to the latest data from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) from 2011.

These data do not include corporate income taxes, or taxes on capital gains or dividends, or payroll taxes for Social Security and other programs.

In 2011, according to the IRS, there were 145,370,240 individual income tax returns filed. Among those returns, 125,914,418 or 86.6%, belonged to taxpayers earning a salary less than $100,000. The remaining 19,455,822 returns belonged to those taxpayers earning more than $100,000, or 13.4% of the total.

While those top earners, earning six figures or more, represented only 13.4% of the total number of individual income tax returns reported to the IRS, they contributed nearly three-fourths of the total amount of federal  tax revenue from individual filers reported for that year.

In 2011, the IRS collected $1,088,559,743,000 based on taxpayers' taxable income. From that total, 71.6%, or $779,547,834,000 came from those taxpayers earning six figures or more. Only 28.4%, or $308,816,180,000, came from those earning less than $100,000.

The IRS has been posting these tax data online since 1996, when the share of the nation’s tax-burden (on individual income) held by six-figure earners was 51%.  Since then, the share of the nation’s taxes paid by six-figure earners has increased, peaking (so far) in 2007 when top earners paid 72.6% of the nation’s individual income taxes.

Those individual income taxes, $1.08 trillion, comprised 47% of the federal government's revenue in fiscal year 2011, which was $2.3 trillion,  according to the Congressional Budget Office. The balance came from employment or social insurance taxes (36%); corporate income taxes (8%); excise taxes (3%); custom duties (0.3%); and miscellaneous receipts (4%).    (See Historical Budget Data.xls and CBO Budget Outlook.pdf)

Yes this is bullshit. I get hit more in taxes than what some people get as a paycheck. I need to buy some property soon as I have absolutely no write offs to offset some of the tax hit.

Actually very few people come close percentage wise to 90K.  I bet 95% of get big members make under 50K. If you are talking about a husband and wife combined making 90K that is another statistic. If as an individual you are making 100K in most areas of the country you can lead a good life. In parts of California, NJ, NY and Connecticut you would be struggling to make ends meet with that. In rural states like Tennessee you would be relatively rich.

Nah... Even in the Suburban LA area, if you make 100K you are doing alright.

I mean, you're not rich, but you're getting by just fine.

Now NYC... especially Manhattan... Yeah... That's a struggle, and of course if you're trying to live in Beverly Hills or something, but you're not doing too badly in 99.99% of the places in America.

Yup.  Single with 100k, you're probably all right.  Married with kids, and the whole thing changes.  Geo region is key here too.

Middle class? My friend, on 90k I wouldn't even be able to look after my dog if it was just me and him. To be the SOLE breadwinner for a family of 4, pay all the bills and buy food, live in a nice area away from human garbage, run 2 cars and go on holiday once or twice a year you're looking at 150-200 MINIMUM. Between the girlfriend and myself we're hitting around 230 a year. And believe me, we don't live it up.

Serious, I'm low sixes , married, two cars and after mortgage, cost of living etc there's not much left

But I live in the liberal utopia of the Bay Area where we "help" illegals and career shitbags by paying endless taxes.

Exactly... when I'm looking for common sense, I look for tu_'s posts.

I like how every other poster on here spits on 100-150k lol... of course they're all in the mil club.

A majority of people lie about their income;

A) they're embarrassed.
B) they're embarrassed. The 1%er bullshit created that mentality (not of peace)

Reality is, regardless of where you live, if you can afford to have the wife stay at home, own that said home and aren't living paycheck to paycheck AND posting on getbig, you're doing just fine.

Life is a balance. know your equilibrium.

Oh and before people pounce, we're saving as the girlfriend want to get married and have a baby soon, giving up work in the process. So we're squirreling away like mad. Once her income is out of the equation, we go down to being very middle class again. In a city where the house prices are at historic highs along with historic shortage (Christchurch NZ). And here's the kicker, we're still renting. I still need to buy (though I still have my place in the UK). So I guess I have no reason being out there every night snorting coke off hookers' tits. I just like wasting away the odd few hundred at the slot machines  8)

Brutal thinking a 100k is a lot of money in 2014 (unless living in Anus, Idaho). Epic not realizing that plumbers and electricians earn that. Mega thinking that you're going to turn up at Goldman Sachs with your 4-6k a month take-home salary and think you're going to get face time with a 'wealth manager'.  :-\

Funny you should ask. Read yesterday that's it's around 74k, but that might be a bit low. Read here, taking into a account it's 2013 figures. Heaps and heaps of jobs available here so employers can't take the piss. So at 74k and mom and dad both works. The maths = easy.

Remember, this is NZ Dollar so not sure how it compares to Yank $$$. I don't know the average country wide. All I know is that I'm getting gouged HARD on rent and food prices are very dear. I only came here as I got a good offer. Otherwise I'd be in your neck of the woods or Oz. Or Canada.

To be brutally honest, it's all earthquake money. Had that not happened I'd still be in London slaving for peanuts.

you can have a garage with an 09 S63, a 997 C4S, a 360 Modena, for just over $150k the first two less than 45k miles and the Ferrari less than 25k.

that's only $30k out of pocket if you only put down 20%.

maybe if you quit spending your sons money on your black crack hookers you too, could drive an S550.

I think a lot of us talk about buying a car outright and not make expensive payments every month where you get bent over a barrel with interest payments. I'd rather wait until I've saved the money before buying the car.

Come to think of it, it's probably why I've always driven shit cars.

Not that cars matter all the much to me  :-\

Bugatti's are nice though.

My friend, I hear you so loud and clear it's scary. It's as if you're sitting next to me.

There's a big argument going on in the 'James' household about the price of engagement rings. All the friends are rocking 20 grand rings (at hefty interest rates) She's not happy with anything less. I'm thinking 2k max (I'm thinking $100 max), she's countering with 15k. Neither of us willing to move on price. So there might not be a wedding any time soon to argue over.


I may try and make light of this but she's pulling out the 'I'll wear it for the rest of my life' and 'don't you want me to have the ring I really desire?' or 'We're only doing this once' arguments.

(CNSNews.com) -- Taxpayers earning $100,000 or more a year pay 71.6% of the nation’s share in individual federal income taxes, according to the latest data from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) from 2011.

These data do not include corporate income taxes, or taxes on capital gains or dividends, or payroll taxes for Social Security and other programs.

In 2011, according to the IRS, there were 145,370,240 individual income tax returns filed. Among those returns, 125,914,418 or 86.6%, belonged to taxpayers earning a salary less than $100,000. The remaining 19,455,822 returns belonged to those taxpayers earning more than $100,000, or 13.4% of the total.

While those top earners, earning six figures or more, represented only 13.4% of the total number of individual income tax returns reported to the IRS, they contributed nearly three-fourths of the total amount of federal  tax revenue from individual filers reported for that year.

In 2011, the IRS collected $1,088,559,743,000 based on taxpayers' taxable income. From that total, 71.6%, or $779,547,834,000 came from those taxpayers earning six figures or more. Only 28.4%, or $308,816,180,000, came from those earning less than $100,000.

The IRS has been posting these tax data online since 1996, when the share of the nation’s tax-burden (on individual income) held by six-figure earners was 51%.  Since then, the share of the nation’s taxes paid by six-figure earners has increased, peaking (so far) in 2007 when top earners paid 72.6% of the nation’s individual income taxes.

Those individual income taxes, $1.08 trillion, comprised 47% of the federal government's revenue in fiscal year 2011, which was $2.3 trillion,  according to the Congressional Budget Office. The balance came from employment or social insurance taxes (36%); corporate income taxes (8%); excise taxes (3%); custom duties (0.3%); and miscellaneous receipts (4%).    (See Historical Budget Data.xls and CBO Budget Outlook.pdf)

coach regardless of who is office I don't think that there will be a reduction in the amount of tax dollars the government collects. Ofcourse the Republicans are going to place the burden on the poor and ever dwindling middle class.

Unless we are willing to cut the military budgets which is currently 1/2 of all federal dollars then we are just arguing over pennies.



everybody wants to cut taxes as long as it doesn't affect their benefits.

Brutal thinking a 100k is a lot of money in 2014 (unless living in Anus, Idaho). Epic not realizing that plumbers and electricians earn that. Mega thinking that you're going to turn up at Goldman Sachs with your 4-6k a month take-home salary and think you're going to get face time with a 'wealth manager'.  :-\
This thread is based on 100k, if you'll recall. Most people in The United States earn in the neighborhood of 40k. Personally speaking, I easily exceeded 100k by the end of First Quarter. So tell me how it all works, big shot...

You thought I was going to come out bitching? No I'm not.

If you're pulling in 100k a quarter, I'm truly pleased for you. Do you know which people are pleased for others? People that are happy in their own lives.

That's what I've gone and done. And now got the interview  :o

It's for a divisional manager reporting directly to the MD. The only people I've ever 'managed' were sending the trainees to fetch my coffee. I've always been working directly with the clients on site or as part or with the developers.

Any of you ever done it? Took a stab at something and it came off?

You can live on 100K a year. Its ridiculous to think you cant. You may not be taking lavish vacations and driving around in lavish cars, but you can live on 100K. Obviously this all depends on if youre married with kids or not.

mortgage/insurange/upkeep - $2500
car payments - $800
car insurance - $200
food - $300
eating out - $400
gas - $500
hair/nails/tooth stuff/soap/ect - $100
...
i'm sure i'm missing stuff.. phones, tv/net, ect.. figure another $500

that's $5300/month... just over $60k/year, fairly easy between two people, even if one works only part-time.

My friend, I hear you so loud and clear it's scary. It's as if you're sitting next to me.

There's a big argument going on in the 'James' household about the price of engagement rings. All the friends are rocking 20 grand rings (at hefty interest rates) She's not happy with anything less. I'm thinking 2k max (I'm thinking $100 max), she's countering with 15k. Neither of us willing to move on price. So there might not be a wedding any time soon to argue over.


I may try and make light of this but she's pulling out the 'I'll wear it for the rest of my life' and 'don't you want me to have the ring I really desire?' or 'We're only doing this once' arguments.

if shes that stubborn abt the ring chances are she cares more about the ring and the special day than spending the rest of her life with you.

buyer beware. see you in divorce court.

TOP FEDERAL TAX BRACKET IN AMERICA 39.6%...And for anyone to have to pay this they must make over $400,000. a year...If you make $400,000 a year and your wife don't work, have her take a part time job and file jointly...Because your rate will drop to 35% up to $450,000 a year...If you're a single filer and make $100,000 to $180,000 a year, you're paying somewhere in the 28% range...

Edit.

I could only find 2012 figures but shop ASSISTANTS where pulling in 50k a year here (though I imagine that include a fair bit of OT). 2 years ago.

i'll just receive cash via western union, and keep cash in safe deposit boxes. the bitcoin stuff seems risky as hell to me.

stockpiling 9mm and 7.62 ammo in storage units seems safer. lol

but according to you, you need to be a 'millionaire' (do you even know what a 'millionaire' is? lol) to drive an S-Class Mercedes.

lol


you can have a garage with an 09 S63, a 997 C4S, a 360 Modena, for just over $150k the first two less than 45k miles and the Ferrari less than 25k.

that's only $30k out of pocket if you , only put down 20%.

maybe if you quit spending your sons money on your black crack hookers you too, could drive an S550.
uhm yes....


people driving the car i posted are billionaires you fucking moron

of course there are always people like you, buying cars they cant afford, paying monthly etc ahahaha ;D

Yeah, dat dere cryptocurrency is seemingly an all-or-nothing investment. But if you consider some of your proceeds as risk capital, btc might be worth a try. Two benefits are:

i) you are accumulating property (that's what the IRS deemed btc recently) that might be hugely valuable in 5-10 years

ii) You can hold it in the digital world at no cost for as long as desired, then 'legitimize' it by transferring it to a btc exchange and selling it, thereby incurring capital gains tax -- no smurfs or otherwise overly complicated schemes needed. With the use of mixer services and having acquired the btc anonymously in the first place, there's no plausible recourse for the IRS to challenge your claim that you were an early adopter only now cashing in (and they're getting dat tax dollar, so are less liable to try).

it will be decided in a court of law how much you HAVE to pay, it is based on your income so it's gonna be "not much" :-X



sometimes i give her some cash, i gave her 50€ the other day, instantly i regretted so much and wonder why i did that

he wants to post a hundred threads talking about how his baby momma cheats on him, is a whore, is a gold digger, how he abandoned his child, how he got fired, how he doesn't pay child support, ect... and expects to be disrespectfull when I took time and answered his questions via PM time after time, then he gets what's coming to him. I'm not saying anything he hasn't already said himself.

I train ppl who own Ferrari's, Maserati's, Astons, ect... (no lambos at the moment, that I can think of though)... and who live in 2, 4, 5 million dollar homes.. and you know how many of them paid cash for any of it? zero. genius. everything is financed. why would you pay cash for something that LOSES value. a car isn't an investment, and mortgages have tax benefits.

for someone who works or worked for bank (like you claim), you'd think you would know this already.

#1 I have quite a few certs... doesn't matter though, as cert's don't mean shit. I know many with less than 6 months of training experience (their own experience, not training other ppl) with certs. cert's are mainly for insurance and marketing.

#2 what do I need my websites for? launched'em on a whim and had a client do a quick "build" and never finished them. my business comes from word of mouth and face to face meeting. don't think I've ever gotten a client from my sites.

#3 listed where? lol. my companies are listed.

you're not equipped for this, mental midget.

btw... have you thought of having your 'baby momma' charged with a sex crime? as it's typically against the law for somebody to engage in intercourse with a person who's mentally unfit/unable to consent to sex.

in laymans terms, your 'baby momma' had sex with a retarded person, legally unable to make those kinds of decisions (you).

you'd kill two birds with one stone.. no more baby momma drama, and the state would take away your child as you're an unfit parent. you wouldn't even have to disown the child (as you already have), as you wouldn't have a choice.

Money threads always bring out the "highrollers", religion threads bring out the "nutters" and wyhi threads bring out.....well they bring out everyone.

Most individuals in the US do not earn anywhere close to 100K a year.  Most families of 5-6 live on less than half of that.  

My household is extremely middle class.  I work, wife works, kids in daycare.  We both work professional jobs and we're both average earners, but collectively and compared to majority we earn a ton more than most.  In that sense we are very, very wealthy (won't even talk about other countries).   We've lived on far, far less and been very happy.....it is possible LOL.  

No, you don't get lavish vacations each year, pockets of spending cash, meals out 5 days a week, constant shopping sprees.....you live with less.   All that other stuff is just stuff.  

We don't own a business, have employees and everything associated with that.  We man cubes in large cube farms in big international corporations.  

We put money away best we can and we live with less.  

Every year friends go on vacations....we don't.  Every 2 years friends buy new vehicles.....we don't.   Every new gadget that is released our friends purchase......we buy something every 4-5 years.  We live with less.  

We tithe to our church, we give to the poor, we pass out money to those on street corners, we spoil our child a bit, we shop at discount stores like Target and Walmart for normal stuff, but if we need nicer things we go to nicer places and plan for things.  

Getbig is a fantasy that everyone indulges in....what I just wrote is a taste of reality......nobody wants to read that though LOL.

We all know who the financial successes are on this board....they'll always let you know LOL.  Hey, good for them.  Me, I'm "Joe Average Middle Class".

It's not so much the percentage itself, it's the fact that houses are so expensive in the "desirable" parts of ca

1% of a 200k home in encino is doable but when your in the bay or nicer parts of LA and closing on a mil, 1% is not so cool. Lucky they haven't repealed those deductions, yet.
