Not always true. There are times when the recipient can be liable. Usually this is after a long period of time since the gift and the donor is broke.
Also, some donees can accept li...

Only if the Donor that left you the money had an estate in excess of $5,250,000 and that gift was after they had already used their unified credit and that donor failed to pay the gift tax. If all of these things are true, you may be secondarily liable for the gift tax. Also, you would only be liabl...

You think so? That would make the SEC West more interesting. I hope so, its much more fun to beat Arky when they are actually ranked.
Also, I could live with LSU at 12 to START the season....

Talk to an accounting...estate tax accounting is more similar to trust accounting than individual accounting.

LAGOP won't let there be a nasty primary. They'll tell Fleming to wait until Vitter runs for governor and then it w...
