No. 1 overall pick Joe Burrow former LSU Heisman-winning quarterback has agreed to a $36.1M contract, including a $23.8M signing bonus, with the Cincinnati Bengals. Burrow will receive 100% of his signing bonus within 15 days of executing his contract. This will be the most lucrative rookie deal any player has reached since the rookie wage scale was implemented in 2011.

Plus Cincinnati 2.1% local tax.

Do I have to pay the City tax? Do I have to file a return? What is the tax rate? Anyone who lives or works in Cincinnati is subject to the 2.1% income tax regardless of age or income level.

Yeah, I'm the taxman

Democrats are sharp. They call Obama care affordable. Now I get it. If you have a 20 million dollar income it sure can be affordable.

Yeah..... I’m not going to feel sorry for him if he can’t “get that down”.

14 million on top of his salary? He should be able to walk away from football anytime he wants and the next 4 generations of his family could never work a day in their life if they didn’t want to.

Accelerated depreciation is your friend. There are bound to be a lot of depressed areas in SE Ohio with special economic zones where he can invest in businesses to take advantage of things like that.
