Srsly now, when do I claim taxes?

I've read so much bullshit on this subject and learnt nothing. I'm withdrawing $25 a week and haven't been paying taxes because it is such a meager amount.

However, I know when it comes to making money in other things than a job, once you exceed $600 in a year, you need to fill out a W-9 form. So how do you guys do it? What happens when I want to cash out over $600?

I asked my father just to see what he'd say and he is like "just pay taxes at the end of the year". Either way WTF someone guide me please this shits gay.

Is there links to clear documentation for USA players on this?

Eventually I might just go to H&R block because I failed Algebra for a reason.

youa re withdrawing so little money you seriously can't get burned in any meaningful way... don't worry about it lol

A meaningful amount worth claiming is 10k+ min. Technically all income is reportable obviously but for such a meager amount I can't see the IRS breaking down doors for $600. If you really wanted to report it then you'd report your gross winnings and gross losses on a Schedule A of a 1040. Never NET the two. Meh.

That is because I played Mabinogi for a while since I can't resist 12 year old girls.

I got a MSN because that is what they use. Maybe taxes should be the least of my worries.
