Charles Mingus said jazz was a word invented to separate musicians from their money. Music for a Free World brings us together, drawing listeners to the healing power of smooth free jazz. Each week, surprise guests bring their own sides to spin and their instruments of choice to spontaneously jam.

Boring stuff: I'm waiting to see if some donations end up counting as deductible (WFMU ones alas don't). On first sight they were rejected, but word is that was a misguided blanket denial
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:31pm
Dave Sewelson:

fred you got some crazy laws in france...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:38pm
fred:

@Dave: WFMU doesn't count here, and I know I'm seen as a rich guy on your side, but I'm not. I decided years ago to empty my bank account to the station every year, but that requires knowing how much is in there
I'm what sucks, I'll just go away

WR:

Didn't think of that Fred, donations to organizations in different countries and the deductible status. I've recently made "donation" to Cafe Oto in UK. Admit that mostly I did it to get to download some concerts but didn't think of the support to non-profit arts group and tax deduction part. But I'm slow on dealing with taxes anyway.

@WR: nice. So I'm a tax optimizing overlord. That's why I'm out for longer that I thought
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:17pm
coelacanth∅:

donations to wfmu (or anyone) are not tax-deductible here in the us, in my world and many others'. when you go the deductions route they pretend you made more money and add to your base amount. ($1000.?, 2000? -i forget) so deducting for donations, medical expenses, etc. is only worth it once its up in the thousands. otherwise you end up paying more in taxes than you would have if you didn't claim deductions.
there've been years when my donations were over a thousand dollars; but only once were my medical expenses sufficient to make itemizing worth it to me -and that was just for a few dollars.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:17pm
coelacanth∅:

...maybe in higher tax brackets it's worth it?

Dean:

@coelacanth∅: You're right about itemizing versus standard deduction. After Trump's early tax law, which raised the standard deduction, many households no longer got the benefit of the charitable donation write-off, because their annual donations and other deductions didn't exceed the standard. Medical is slightly different. For some time the rule has been, as stated by the IRS, "You may deduct only the amount of your total medical expenses that exceed 7.5% of your adjusted gross income." So, medical has been tied to AGI, while the utility of deducting donations is tied to the standard deduction, which is the same for everybody.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 3:26pm
WR:

My understanding regarding donations is that you can still deduct them even if taking the standard deduction and not itemizing. And yes, to take medical and home office and etc deductions the numbers need to be big or you must be a business to make it worth while itemizing.

Jamal told me to tell you, Jim
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 3:42pm
doctorjazz:

I think that's true-you can only deduct (or it only pays to deduct) if your deductions are high enough to make it worthwhile to itemize (more than the standard deduction).

doing my own taxes was easy until i became a "private contractor" then i couldn't get my head around it. h&r blockheads cost me LOTS of money so the next year i tried to figure it out by looking at what they did. couldn't.
good thing because on april 14th a tax faerie came to me and got it done, and right.
last year she disappeared on me and i figured out my taxes by her example (though i decided to not pay them anyway)
>$3000. out of pocket medical expenses, over 7.5% of my income, didn't make it worth it.
>$600. deductions to non-profits also wasn't worth it, and is not deductible unless i fill out the extra forms that increase the standard deduction.

mahakalamusic:

I'd never tried doing live improvisation over the internet before last weekend. I always assumed the latency would be too high. But as long as you don't try to lock into some kind of straight groove I was surprised at how well it can work. Definitely want to try more of it in the future.
