Many years ago, soon after I started playing VP, I hit a .25 JOB progressive
for something like $1190. It was a hand pay but of course no W2G. The
woman who paid said, "Wow, you were lucky to hit it before you had to pay
tax". I of course replied, "It's still taxable, I just don't get the
W2G." After a little mild disagreement, I just walked away wondering how
many others she had told the same wrong information.

Tips to keep private email addresses out of the hands of spammers:
1. Avoid giving your or anyone else's email address to any web site.
2. Instead of forwarding email, cut and paste the text or edit to remove
addresses.
3. For group emails, use the "bcc:" (Blind Carbon Copy) field instead of
"to:".
(Put your own address or a fake address in the "to:" field).
4. Want to do more? Attach this text as a custom signature to the bottom of
all your outgoing email.
