    The IRS says movie star Nicolas Cage used a company he owns to wrongly write off $3.3 million in personal expenses, including limos, meals, gifts, travel and his Gulfstream 1159A turbojet. ... The feds hit Cage both ways, denying Saturn a deduction for the disputed expenses while taxing Cage individually on the perks as salary and "constructive dividends."

    Cage's business manager, Samuel J. Levin, says in an e-mail that the expenses were proper as "customary in the entertainment industry" and were partly based on the actor's "security needs."

    I sure hope they never find out about him being involved in the "big boost". He just did it to save his brothers dumb arse. :D

    if the government wants to make an example of you......you better just bend over and take it. at the end of the day they write, and control the laws, so you better just be done with it and move on. they almost always win, and the more you fight it, the more they will want to f*ck you

    Nick's not our OC Brotha anymore. He sold his house to Terribles for $35m last month. After the intruder incident he felt NB wasn't safe for him and his family. They went back to LA.

    The Philippines! All you gotta do is "buy" a contact (usually for less than $500.00 per annum) from within the internal revenue and you're set! They're pretty up to date and plenty of F-Cars there too. Factory service is also available for dirt cheap, you'll practically be paying for just the parts cause labor is so so cheap!!! Gotta love the ultra corrupt countries. :D

    Hmm, $35M? Probably another reason why the IRS is on the hunt.

    The Terribles boat looks quite fitting in the slip.

    Through a friend familiar with that level of security, he thinks there is more to the story with the naked intruder.
