Before expenses,

Gooch appeared on the ‘Fore The People’ Podcast and revealed that $1.9 million of his winnings never even made it to his bank account.

“It was a little bit disheartening seeing 47 and a half percent because Australian taxes [do] not enter the account.”

“It comes, you know, almost it sometimes it’s like 48 hours, but it’s usually 24 hours after it direct deposit hits. It was a big one this last week, but yeah, it sucked that 47 and a half percent was withheld for Australian taxes, unfortunately.”

“I am by no means complaining, but the four [million dollars], once you cut it all up, let’s just say that it’s lot less than four.”

Wonder what a winner of an event in California gets deducted?

Don’t know exactly how the withholding tables would work but the vast majority of $4m would be taxed at 52% if I’m remembering correctly (39%+13% state). Income tax only.

Same deal if he won in California.

If you are making money in a foreign country, absent some exemption, they are going to withhold taxes at a very high rate as a rule of thumb. Don’t want people making a bunch of money then leaving the country with no tax paid, never to return again.

California has tried in the past to get a hold of my payroll taxes for merely piloting an aircraft in to and out of an outstation located within their borders.
