My message to my fellow Americans and friends around the world following this week's attack on the Capitol.

[Matt Wapner @mattwapner]

@aprivateguy @johnpavlovitz Farrels was awesome

[Matt Wapner @mattwapner]

@RossKneeDeep Yes, 10 minutes ago, in Jersey.

@devlyn_angel @DanWuori You basically can’t buy anything but food products. It’s insane. The Governor loosened them after Superstorm Sandy and the county executive complained people were buying non-necessities.

@LoneWolf343 @turquoiselau @BadMedicalTakes As long as it isn’t Ice-9

@SeanCrespo . . . met her lover

[Matt Wapner @mattwapner]

@4Livingtheory @KurtzOrin @ProfRobAnderson Yeah, wow.

[Matt Wapner @mattwapner]

@KurtzOrin @ProfRobAnderson I have been involved in transactions where, after the deal closed, the investment bank asked the client for a 7 figure “tip” (on top of their negotiated fee, a % of the deal price) and received it.

[Matt Wapner @mattwapner]

@chaotic_sub You are now.

[Matt Wapner @mattwapner]

@Preyzar @BroyleTim @Strandjunker Yes, but wealth that is accumulated through appreciation, like an increase in stock value, doesn’t become income until you sell the stock, but it can still be borrowed against.

[Matt Wapner @mattwapner]

@annemarien97 @jacoh55 @Strandjunker Which is based on your income. Ultra wealthy people show less income, they borrow and use that money to buy stock which appreciates but doesn’t count as income until it is realized. So their wealth grows but they don’t generate income. They don’t “earn” anything.

[Matt Wapner @mattwapner]

@BroyleTim @Strandjunker How is income determined for tax purposes in Finland and Switzerland? I’m the U.S. the ultra wealthy find ways to drastically reduce their taxable income.

[Matt Wapner @mattwapner]

@annemarien97 @jacoh55 @Strandjunker It’s more difficult than it sounds. The ultra rich don’t end up paying very much income tax at all.

@Kwags1981 @DennisM8re @caslernoel @RoArquette The list of things that can’t is getting smaller and smaller.

[Matt Wapner @mattwapner]

@ChipBorman @Artist_Angie They like Fig Newtons? Learn something every day.

[Matt Wapner @mattwapner]

@MattFriedmanNJ You did the right thing.

[Matt Wapner @mattwapner]

@artemis_nieves It can be done in 90 minutes, but how soon will you be leaving after the test? If you don’t keep practicing you will lose it. How hilly is the area where you are going? There is a huge difference between a flat start and a start from a stop on a hill with a car on your bumper

@SBMPediatrics @lizditz Wait, what? Why was this message necessary?

[Matt Wapner @mattwapner]

@StephenKing Seriously

@zeabarker @Remember_Sarah 50 or 51, I’m 47 and was a freshman when this came out.
