Loopholes You Can Exploit to Cheat the System

[@A_Stereotypical_Heretic]

I knew an elderly couple that traveled with a box of envelopes, a book of stamps, and index cards. Every promotion, every lottery ticket they found on the ground with a second chance mail in, every mail in sweepstakes they would enter. These folks were literally wealthy just doing this. It's amazing how few people participate in these things and how that dramatically increases your odds of winning.

[@chriszhang1660]

I don’t understand. Could you please explain how they do it? For example what is second chance mail in?

[@A_Stereotypical_Heretic]

@@chriszhang1660 ok so many magazines and nowadays websites of companies have pages where they have mail in rebates, coupons, giveaways, sweepstakes etc. Most of the time you have to hunt them down, they don't always advertise them outright. The reason they kept these things is they would write their information down on these index cards and mail them to these companies for their official entry info and such, sometimes the index card was good enough for an entry. Nowadays I imagine it's mostly done online so I guess the box of envelopes is outdated. This was in 1995 96 era. And they would absolutely enter every single one they could find. By second chance mail ins I mean that on the back of many lottery tickets in America they have a few lines of info to fill in and an address to mail the ticket to and that enters you into a second chance to win the prize on the ticket, sometimes more. Most people don't do this, they just throw them away. So those folks would gather them all up and mail them in. Won a good bit of money doing so. They won a new Ford truck one year, some small lotteries, tons of food and coupons, free gas, vacations etc. It was quite lucrative for them.

[@Tiberius-84]

I'm going to age myself here, but I was a kid back in the blockbuster & super nintendo days, and I once won a year of free rentals with a single entry into their sweepstakes. It was right next to a grocery store my mom always went to, so I used it to it's fullest potential for gaming. Good times 🙂

Just a note here, in the UK lottery winnings are tax free, you only pay tax on any interest accrued. This applies to any prize won on any legal game of chance so if you, for example, win a Ferrari or a Rolls Royce in the US you could go bankrupt paying the luxury vehicle tax, in the UK you just drive it home.

[@w8what575]

Still laugh every time I hear someone say that america is the land of the free and home of the brave cuz how they can believe that bs is beyond me! The land of the tax slave and home of the chicken shite that won’t even question a mandate

[@lesliekilgore648]

the capital gains and lux taxes in the US are a percentage of the CASH VALUE of the item... NOT the MSRP (manufacturers' suggested retail price). so, if your local Ferrari dealership CLAIMS that car you just won is worth one million US $... you won't be taxed on that amount. but the actual Blue Book Sale Value of said car. this is how Mr.Beast the KZbinr helps his 'huge prize winners' get around the lux and capital gains taxes. because HIS accounting firm will help the winners FILE THEIR TAXES FOR FREE on any items/cash etc. folks win from Mr.Beast. that is also why many MANY contests in the US have fine print stating 'or the equivalent cash value of said item(s) may be given to the winner in lieu of the item in question'. the tax rate on CASH WINNINGS is different IN EACH US STATE let alone the tax rate on cash winnings by the IRS. oh and you don't have to pay VAT on winnings in the UK?

They were just jealous and harassed that poor man. They called the news stations, wrote spiteful letters, and made his life hell. We have a homelessness epidemic that will only get worse... and there are enough empty/abandoned homes to house EVERY PERSON affected at least 3 times over. Yet, all the banks (that get bailed out every time they screw up) would rather see them rot and fall into disrepair than allow us to solve a humanitarian crisis. This is why we can't have nice things.

You r so right

[@aaronjacqsmiles4045]

that's all fine and dandy until you end up that person with every house around you is taken over. Yes that works in theory except where I live those houses you talk about gangs take over to sell drugs. Locals utilize them as party houses like not a house party but legit paid entry nightclubs and strip clubs and others use it to charge migrants to live in it rent and overfill it 20 fold. Let alone the one where it was basically turned into a casino with card games n such . Then you get into prostitution so on so forth point is would you like to live in an area where not only one house has that going on all hours of the night but multiple. Would you not be mad they pay nothing and you can't even let your children play in your own yard you pay for. Like come on this works if people treated it as it should be to get on ones feet and whatnot but that's not what happens. When you were a kid and parents or friends gave you something free you treated it differently as an adult when you paid for it taking better care of it if not u b lying to yourself lol I watch it with my kids n toys all the time Xmas stuff ends up missing parts but anything they earned with their own money they know where every single thing is of it. Even my one kids pokemon cards my son trades or gives away or flings them around. They ones he bought got this crazy binder that he won't even let his brother touch the others he gives to him free LoL

[@aaronjacqsmiles4045]

and I'm not saying your wrong with it all it does suck how banks all all are and yes it would be nice to use them for said things it's just whod police them or check they're even safe to occupy often enough or code enforcement and what not. We are in a police deficit in most places and they don't have enough code enforcement to start this but the man power in itself wouldn't be sustainable so while yes good in theory it's just not possible to give away free homes to all within the US. Don't forget about how many would refuse to work and what that would cause everyone would be like huh I can work and pay for a house or not and get a free house then work after I live in it long enough it's mine

Reminds me of being a kid and pulling something similar on a very small scale. Back in the early 90's they used to do prize caps on soft drinks, usually just for a free drink, but sometimes more. I discovered on bottled water you could read the bottom of the caps if you simply looked through the bottle a certain way. So while my mom went shopping, I'd just go raid the bottled water aisle and set aside winners. I kept busy and I didn't bother her while she shopped, it was a win win. She'd come back in about 15 minutes and we'd load up the winners. I had store staff ask me what I was doing a few times and I'd just blatantly tell them I was picking out winners and will keep the shelves organized. I don't think they realized I was being serious, they'd just shrug and walk away. Eventually they went to coding the caps and you'd have to enter the codes online to figure out if you were a winner.

[@sonkien3]

Back when Xbox came out I was working at GameStop while Blockbuster had a generous promotional offer when at the same time they were trying to buy up any and all used DVDs. I forget how much the bonus was (probably $10 extra for trading in 3). Basically I was buying $1-3 dvds at GameStop and trading them at blockbuster for face value and the extra bonus. End result was that I got a basically free Xbox from blockbuster, off setting the initial cheap dvd cost by buying like two video games there and reselling for cash. Also obviously got a discount at GameStop.

There's a much better loophole than adverse possession with much less risk of losing any potential equity you may put into it, and evictions tend to stay on a person's record for quite a while. What you do, is go to your municipality's tax lien listings. Pay the taxes on a house that you want. Doing so makes you an official lien holder to that property. Which means you own a little bit of the house. Eventually one of two things will happen. Either the property owners will have to pay off the lien, or they will have to surrender possession to the lien holder. The timing is different by location. In ND, the original owner has 2 years to pay off the lien. If not, the property is all yours.

The zone of death falls under federal law and under federal law a federal judge can move the trial as needed, there is no loop hole for federal law. It would only be an issue for state law. Also, any crime that started outside the boundary would be chargeable in the state where it started. This loophole has been debunked repeatedly, it exists only in abstract because the legal remedy already exists under federal statute, it's similar to how US federal courts can charge crimes against its citizens even if the crime is committed outside the borders of the US or at sea.

[@jgkitarel]

Yup, and Federal Law trumps State Law whenever a conflict between the two arises. Granted, it requires to federal courts to decide whether prosecuting it over the State's right to prosecute should take precedence, especially as Double Jeopardy definitely applies unless the violation runs afoul of certain specific circumstances, like military law and state law, where an acquittal in one doesn't mean you're scot free as the other can freely charge and prosecute you.

I said 'Wanna know why the word 'Sugar' is weird? It's because it starts with the 'sh' sound, even though it starts with only an s and no h!'. All my classmates were like 'She beat the system!' '1,000 IQ play!' and all that. I was proud of myself. I got the same celebration when I explained what a crop was when the teacher asked what a crop was, and if anyone wanted to know, the crop is an organ in a bird's neck or chest used to store food for later if the food is hurriedly swallowed. There you go, I shared my smarts for everyone.

18:25 There was a student at a large Californian university that rocked up to pay his yearly tuition with a wheelbarrow full of loose Silver Dollars and they were about to reject it outright until somebody got the idea to call the college lawyers, who told them Silver Dollars were legal currency for all payments and debts, and if they rejected his payment he'd legally be able to study for the next year for FREE .... they accepted the payment. As an addendum, and something many people DON'T KNOW, in the USA pennies are only legal up to 50c and loose change (1c, 5c, 10c, 25c) is only legal up to $5.

In the late 90s soda companies had games on their caps where you could win free sodas. I figured out how to tell which bottles were the winners.

The reason dollar coins never catch on is simple: They're always too similar to quarters. No one ever uses them because they're afraid they'll give out a dollar when they intended to give out a quarter without realizing it. Even when they made them slightly hexagonal, in the 1980's (I believe). But the angles were too slight. You could hardly tell there were points unless you really looked at it. In the 1960's the dollar coin (then known as a silver dollar) was substantially larger. It was easy to tell the two apart. But since then they made the silver dollar only about 1/10 larger than a quarter. And they fell into disuse. If the US mint would stop being so chintzy and add a bit more size/weight to the coins people might start using them again.

[@nikiTricoteuse]

In Aotearoa/New Zealand and in Australia the $1 and $2 coins are a gold colour and about twice the thickness of our 20c and 50c coins, which are a silver colour. Both countries dollar coins look pretty similar but, here in Aotearoa the $2 is larger. Trouble is in Australia - for some inexplicable reason, their $1 is LARGER than their $2, which ends up with lots of Australian $1 coins getting spent as $2 here. 😊

[@RedRoseSeptember22]

Not if they're gold they aren't the same as quarters.

[@djwarlock2873]

If you're talking American dollars, they were never hexagonal. They had a raised rim around the edge whose inside profile had 13 sides for the 13 colonies. Since (I believe) the year 1999, with the advent of the Sacajawea dollars, the coins have been gold-colored to differentiate them from quarters. I love them, and use them nearly every day. They're the most value-efficient coin that we have, and perfect for bus fare where I live.

[@Airbubblepodcast]

Wow 😯 I think I actually heard about a story like this back then! This is incredible that he was able to do that!!!

[@nikiTricoteuse]

We weren't given a choice here in Aotearoa New Zealand. It was simply announced that the one dollar bill, then a few years later the two dollar bill, were going to be withdrawn from circulation on X date and that we had until Y date to exchange them at the bank. After the second date they stopped being valid currency, and were simply worthless. Pretty sure it was the same in Australia when they changed there too. The coins are fine, we got used to them pretty quickly. They're both small gold coins about twice the thickness of the silver coloured cent coins - here in NZ the $1 is smaller than the $2 but, in Australia it's the other way around - which is not just silly, it means that lots of Australian $1 coins get passed off as $2 coins here in NZ. Nice way to double your holiday money 😁

[@EmeraldHill-vo1cs]

In oz any old currency is still legal tender. Usually theyre worth more in the coinshop, otherwise i have taken them to the reserve bank. Even an exactly cut half of a $50 dollar note, they measured and gave me $25-.

[@nikiTricoteuse]

@@EmeraldHill-vo1cs That's both cool AND insane. I think our notes will be honoured only if there's both numbers so, a half note would be worth nothing. I don't know how true that is though. When l lived in Aus l'd collected about 10 of those round 50c coins that had the silver in them. It's so long ago that l can't remember now but, l think they were worth about $7 each. Some toe-rag knicked them at a party though. What annoys me most is they probably spent them as 50c pieces. 😏

It really does depend on the manager.

One could then sue the company for having a 'fake' Gold ticket system where the customer buys in, but can't win.

That’s a sad way to look at things. Apparently you don’t read a bible. In Psalm 118:24 the king of Israel proclaimed to his people that “this is the day that the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it!” He didn’t say that they were only to rejoice if it was sunny, or good weather, bad weather, had your health, didn’t have it…he just declared We WILL rejoice. You sound like you could use a lesson in gratitude. Try writing down one thing a day you can be grateful for. If the sun is shining, if something you wanted to buy came on sale…whatever. Write each item on a scrap of paper and stick it in a bag, box, jar. Whatever works. Or write it down in a $1 composition notebook. It sounds like you have some serious depression. While this practice probably won’t help 💯 it could help a little. If there is depression then the only thing I can suggest is to take steps to get help. Life doesn’t suck. There may be some things about it that aren’t the way you wish they were but again, you can take steps to change that. The biggest step you can take is to allow Christ into your life. We are all struggling under the weight of our sin. Don’t think because you haven’t committed some awful crime that you aren’t a sinner. Every one is and we need God to clean us up. It isn’t something we can do ourselves. You will be amazed at the difference in your attitude if you decide to let Christ into the drivers seat of your life rather than trying to do everything yourself. People think it’s crazy to rely on Jesus to steer their life’s course but as of now you think life sucks. Which means you’re trying to navigate life on your own. So let me ask you…how’s that working out for you? Give Jesus a chance. What do you have to lose? Besides your “life sucks” attitude!

[@jamesodell3064]

Just declaring the property as "private property" does not make it private property.@@picketf

[@picketf]

@@jamesodell3064 The law in certain states considers "the car" to be private property by law. This was established in court to defend against break ins and inapropriate violence towards car-jackers. Since you are allowed to kill someone within your private property if you deem to be in mortal danger this "exemption" would deny a criminal's family to go for manslaughter or claim wrongful death in court. So if the law in that state share's the view that the car is private property AND the space were to be demarked, fenced or otherwise made visibly private then there would be reasonable cause to force the police to obtain a warrant for searching or tresspassing on the premises😂😂😂
