Ok, first of all, i have checked about this with a lawyer and account managers, and im sorry to break it to you guys, but you DO need to pay taxes for that money. You need to pay taxes for every amount of money you are entering to your bank account.. atleast in my country and im sure its like that in almost every country. Now, if you dont make much then its not important, but if you do make much then its getting serious
Now, for my case, well, i make about 3k per month, sometimes more... for a while i have been withdrawing small amounts from my PP account to my bank account so i can stay under the radar.. frankly, i could keep on doing this for a long time and i doubt the bank will report me.. BUT, money is starting to accumulate in my PP quite significantly, and even if i keep withdrawing small amounts, it takes only 1 time for the tax authorities to decide to randomly check my account ( they are running random checks on citizens, nothing special) and then im screwed..
plus, whats the point in working hard on uploads to make cash, if you cant really enjoy it?
Anyway, i have decided to go there and tell them im opening a small business as an independent which i will be working from home on the internet and pay taxes (which also includes social security and health insurance) so that way i can be in peace and not worry that the guys with the black suits will be pounding on my door
You dont have to tell that you upload illegal stuff.. you can just say you are advertising companies or some crap like that and when they ask you what is the annual or monthly profit you are planning on making from this, just tell them a small amount which doesnt require a lot of tax deduction and that doesnt make you look suspicious. I highly doubt that unless you are familiar to the tax authorities (in a bad way) they will care about your internet business..
Anyway, its just me, but i actually want to enjoy the money im making even if i have to pay some tax for it. obviously im not going to withdraw the same amount im making, but im going to withdraw more than im withdrawing now thats for sure
