What Alan forgot to mention is that he resides in Maryland (as do I). Therefore, since the pot of gold exceeds $250,000 in value, it is subject to a 43% tax. Then there is the 6% sales tax, a Clean Water Act flat fee of 3%, a municipal tax of 12%, the 'Found Money' Goodwill Charity reinvestment tax of 18%, and since the money will be spent on a motor vehicle, an additional 4% is required of the pot for road and bridge repairs. So, after all is said and done, Alan may be able to buy a Matchbox Corvette for two lucky forum friends. Thanks for investing in The Free State!!
