She won't be in the 2012 Olympics, unfortunately.


She won't be competing in the London Games -- much to the chagrin of many Internet users -- but she might just be loosening up for a samba in Rio in 2016.

They get paid for every medal they win. Some will walk away with a couple hundered thousand.

It's dumb they have to pay taxes when representing the country but I guess I can understand why.

I know the US Olympic headquarters pays 25 thousand per gold medal and then each sport pays them an amount.

gotcha.

While its not quite the same equivalent in "representing your country", I wonder if military personnel have to pay taxes on medals they are given for service.

Yeh I know, the girl she beat in the final was a Brit. First medal for the British in Judo for 12 years at least.

Military personnel do not pay income taxes.

Pretty sure I didn't.. I never filed a W-2. I was young and didn't really give a shit about that kind of stuff though.
[/quote]

Hmm not sure I knew that. May have at one point but have certainly forgotten it.


You may want to check so you don't get a nasty letter one day though. :lol:

Nah.. Even if I didn't file I wouldn't have owed, so I don't think they give a shit, although I could be wrong about that. Could I still get a refund I wonder?

After looking it up, I guess I was wrong.. I did pay income taxes apparently. Fucking weird, I could have sworn I did not. The human memory is a strange thing.
