Steve Harvey reveals he woke up owing the IRS $22,000,000 because his accountants spent SEVEN YEARS pocketing his tax checks and never filing a single return.
The government told him he had to pay $650,000 a month, every month, for 4 years. Miss ONE payment, and you go to JAIL.
He never would've known if his accountant hadn’t died. A woman cleaning out the office called his lawyer with a serious problem.
STEVE HARVEY: “She had found on the floor all my tax forms for seven years signed and with the checks stapled to it.”
“Well, they were cashing the checks, keeping the money and not turning in the tax forms.”
Seven years of bank statements that looked like a man paying his taxes.
“My lawyer called me, said, ‘Hey, man, we got a problem. You haven’t paid taxes in seven years.’”
“He said, ‘Man, that’s tax evasion. You can go to prison.’”
“I ended up owing 22 million. 22 million with the penalties.”
When he told his wife, Marjorie, she cried for two straight days.
“She says, ‘What you going to do?’ I said, ‘I’m going to go to work.’”
And he did.
“I took every comedy gig in this country, signed every contract. I went to work, man. I worked every single Friday, Saturday and Sunday.”
“I never missed a payment.”
He did that for four years. $650,000 a month, every month.
In 2012, he sold 49% of his radio company and used the check to pay the government off to zero.
“And that was the first time, man, I could breathe.”
The thieves were his accountants.
The $22,000,000 bill went to Steve Harvey.
And the only one who got threatened with prison was the man who got robbed.
the story behind the nathan fielder meme “i hope you’re hungry for nothing” is all because a guy lied about a doctors appointment so he could cut in line to buy a hotdog
"Religion has divided us. ... We can point the finger and say how crazy the Vice Lords, Disciples, Crips & Bloods are, and then here we are in the name of God gang banging just like them. ... The devil's mathematics is always subtraction and division. ... If you're in religion and it's your way or no way, then that might mean that Satan got you even though you think you're with God." - @BrotherNuri
Gilbert Arenas says this Sixers team can't be guarded. This is like the USA Men's Olympic team: LeBron James, Joel Embiid, Jaylen Brown, Tyrese Maxey, and VJ Edgecombe. Their starting five is elite they actually run plays
Deron Williams says the way LeBron James was playing last night for the sixers playing the facilitator role and just playing basketball is who he’s always been this team just allows him to do it
This might be the craziest story we’ve heard all year.
Nancy Lieberman shares a Big3 locker room story with Metta World Peace that Stak never heard until now.
Mitchell Robinson says he did not watch the Knicks’ ring ceremony:
“I am proud of those guys; obviously, I was a part of it, I just didn’t really wanna watch it.”
