Question by Sciurus Reprobatia: How does conservative opposition to online gambling fit in with that whole “personal responsibility” thing?

Reagan: Search Google news and you’ll find mostly religious right type groups opposing Barney Frank’s bill to legalize online gambling.

Your on-line gambling is illegal. It may be difficult or even impossible to repatriate any wins as the foreign site operators subject themselves to arrest upon their arrival on US soil. This HAS happened.

There is a very limited amount of legal on-line sports book gambling operated in the US. Generally the books are run by the major gaming firms. Legal US sports books will plainly state such and are always operated wholly within the US and block access from foreign IP addresses.

With your illegal gambling, you are subject to a loss of all funds if the transaction is caught. All US banks and US credit card processors will refuse transactions from known foreign casinos so you’d have to travel to the country where the casino is operated to collect your money.

Regardless of the illegality of it all, any winnings are taxable. And since the activity is illegal, you do NOT get to deduct your gambling losses as you would with legal gambling.

Approach him from behind…with a large waffle iron. He’ll get the message after he wakes up. I’m just kidding you know.

Actually, you should sit down calmly with him and calmly tell him that you knw what is going on and you wnt it to stop.

Question by Seabass: Online gambling and credit check for a mortgage?
When applying for a mortgage which I am just about to do, I have heard they go though all your bank statements and check everything. Would placing a lot of online bets effect this or make much difference? I haven’t placed any for a while but was about to today, and thought it might negatively impact my ability to get a mortgage, do you think this will be the case?

Best answer:

Answer by I love watching cars turn left
It very well could depending on how much you are spending.

Best thing to do if you are getting ready to apply for a mortgage is to be ultra conservative in all your spending.
