I would be careful posting what I made and put in the bank..records of, never know who is watching or jealousy.
I highly doubt anyone watches geeky md'ing forums, makes notes of tips a person gets , and thus might "target their house for a burglary". Or rob the bank they bank at, etc..... All because of someone's show & tell that told of tips ? I highly doubt it.
Heck, if you go down the daily pages of any md'ing forum show & tell, there's no shortage of us md'rs showing off our trophy bragging rights. Of which, some could be quite valuable. Gold coins even, that could be worth thousands. Does anyone really feel that this opens them up to be targets of theft ?
Anyone with a nice house, in an upper crust neighborhood, with a nice car sitting in the driveway, evidences WAY more income and wealth than any story our finds can portray. Yet those homes or neighborhoods are not any more targeted, than someone who posts on a geeky md'ing forum.
I enjoy seeing an md'r justly rewarded for his efforts. And if that's a part of the story, then .... that's a part of the story. No risk involved. Besides: Scuba is an ex LEO. So ... I'm sure he has a BIG surprise waiting anyone who thinks to hassle him
Me? A bit surprise? Naa just a CPL and a small Springfield SDs 45 cal. ....
Had a distant friend sold a lot of gold many years ago, he retired and decided it was time to sell. He did have a lot and was having a great time spending the cash he had made, got a boat along with several other items. Someone turned him in out of Jealousy. Never heard who did but a lesson I never lived but seen. Better safe then sorry..I highly doubt anyone watches geeky md'ing forums, makes notes of tips a person gets , and thus might "target their house for a burglary".

.... This makes it not taxable (federally anyway) unless his giver exceeds 10k...
Are you sure ? You're saying gifts and tips aren't "taxable" ? Because even restaurant waiters tips ARE INDEED taxable , right ? And any source of "income" (no matter if you call it a "tip" or a "gift") are taxable, aren't they ?
Because if not, then pray tell: What's to stop me from giving my employees "gifts" all year long, so-as-to-avoid payroll taxes ?
But I think this is all a moot point anyhow. Because ... most certainly .... Scuba has dutifully listed this as income on his income taxes. Right scuba ?
