Tips And Overtime Deductions In Big Beautiful Bill Create Odd Marriage Incentives
TOPSHOT - US President Donald Trump (C) shows his signature on the "Big Beautiful Bill Act" at the ... More White House in Washington, DC, on July 4, 2025. US President Donald Trump signed his flagship tax and spending bill on July 4 in a pomp-laden Independence Day ceremony featuring fireworks and a flypast by the type of stealth bomber that bombed Iran. Trump pushed Republican lawmakers to get his unpopular "One Big Beautiful Bill" through a reluctant Congress in time for him to sign it into law on the US national holiday — and they did so with a day to spare Thursday. (Photo by Brendan SMIALOWSKI / POOL / AFP) (Photo by BRENDAN SMIALOWSKI/POOL/AFP via Getty Images)When President Trump came out for "No tax on tips" during the election campaign, I analyzed two legislative proposals towards that end that were in Congress. So when it came time for me to read the tax provisions of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that is where I focused a lot of attention. You can find it on page 247 at the head of Chapter 2 (Delivering On Presidential Priorities To Provide New Middle-Class Tax Relief) - Bill Section 70201 - No Tax On Tips, if you want to follow along. In general, I find the provision very well thought out, except for one very odd thing. There appears to be a marriage penalty for well tipped servers tying the knot with one another and a marriage bonus for well tipped servers marrying industrious blue collar workers. It Is A Deduction The provision adds Section 224 to the Internal Revenue Code which allows a deduction for "qualified tips". The deduction is limited to $25,000. The deduction is phased out starting at $150,000 of modified adjusted gross income (MAGI), $300,000 in the case of joint returns. The phase-out rate is $100 per $1,000 of MAGI. The "modifications" that are added are for income excluded because it was earned by working abroad, in US possessions or Puerto Rico. The deduction is not an itemized deduction. You will be able to claim the standard deduction on top of it. If married you have to file a joint return to claim the deduction. Section 225 adds a deduction for qualified overtime compensation. That deduction is $12,500 or $25,000 in the case of a joint return. The phase-out is the same as for the tip deduction. As with the tip deduction married people have to file jointly in order to claim it. Why is the tip deduction limit $25,000 while the overtime deduction limit is either $12,500 or $25,000 depending on whether it is a joint return? I don't know and as a planner I follow Reilly's First Law of Tax Planning - It is what it is. Deal with it. A Get Together There are five high school friends who get together. They are not married but are thinking about it. They each make about $100,000 per year, Robin and Terry are servers in a pricey restaurant. Most of their income is from tips. Blynn and Ashley are electricians who work a lot of overtime, well above the average. Jesse is an enrolled agent. They get together to celebrate the Big Beautiful Bill. Robin and Terry want to know how much no tax on tips is going to save them and Blynn and Ashley are of course interested in the effect of no tax on overtime. It is up to Jesse to explain to them that that is not how it worked out in the Senate. It was converted to a deduction and there is a limitation. Remember they are all single. Jesse makes a big point of that, because Jesse is a bit on the pedantic side. Robin and Terry will each get a $25,000 deduction. Blynn and Ashley will each get a $12,500 deduction. Jesse, of course, gets nothing other than a lot of aggravation. Not that anybody would care about this, but the whole crew will be getting $75,000 in deductions. Since Jesse made such a big deal about them being single, the question of what happens if they get married comes up. And this is where it gets weird. If Robin and Terry get married their deduction drops to $25,000. If Blynn and Ashley marry they get $25,000 on their joint return. So the whole crew now gets $50,000 in deductions - a marriage penalty. But what if Robin marries Blynn and Terry marries Ashley. Now both couples get $50,000 in deductions or $100,000 for the whole crew - a marriage bonus. There Is More A lot of thought seems to have gone into the tips deduction and I think the details of that are worthy of a separate post. For now I will refer you to Reilly's Third Law of Tax Planning - Any clever idea that pops into your probably has (or will have) a corresponding rule that makes it not work. The statute seems to address many of the ways people might try to game the system. The difference in the limit on tips and overtime for single people, but not married people strikes me as possibly unintentional particularly since the phase-our language is identical. The original House bill did not include any limit at all, so that language was dropped in by the Senate. It reminds me a bit of the "grain glitch" in the Tax Cuts And Jobs Act of 2017. You probably need to be a real tax nerd or a grain farmer to remember that. That was fixed, but this, if it is not what was intended, may be harder to fix. By the way, there was a reason that I have waited to read the Big Beautiful Bill. Starting in 1984, I deeply studied the proposals which ultimately resulted in the Tax Reform Act of 1986. That one was really big, which is why we still call it the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. TRA 1986 made my career. There was, however, a downside to all that study. In the years after enactment, I would often have ideas pop into my head based on provisions that were not enacted. So now I don't read them till they are signed.

FDIC insurance: What it is and how it works
The FDIC is an independent agency of the U.S. government that protects bank customers from losing their money in a bank should it fail. Deposits are insured for up to $250,000 per depositor, per FDIC-insured bank, per ownership category. FDIC insurance covers traditional bank deposit products from insured banks, such as checking and savings accounts, but doesn't cover investments or payment providers such as PayPal. In the event of a bank failure, the FDIC will either transfer funds to another insured bank or issue a check. It's recommended to stay within the insurance limits for easy access to your insured funds. The FDIC insures up to $250,000 per depositor, per FDIC-insured bank, per ownership category when an insured bank fails. This guarantees consumers that their money is safe if an FDIC-member bank fails, as long as their balances are within the limits and guidelines. Here's what you need to know about how your money is backed by the government through the FDIC and the limits of such insurance. The FDIC is the agency that insures deposits at member banks in case of a bank failure. FDIC insurance is backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The thought of your bank failing could be alarming, but if your bank is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC), your money in that bank is protected by the federal government — up to a limit. It's a good idea to review the deposit insurance for your bank accounts now to be sure you're covered. FDIC insurance covers traditional bank deposit products, including checking accounts, savings accounts, certificates of deposit (CDs) and money market accounts. The FDIC classifies deposit accounts into several ownership categories. These include: Single accounts Joint accounts Corporate accounts Retirement accounts If an account holder has more than $250,000 in accounts that fall under a single ownership category at one bank, anything over that amount isn't insured. An individual account is insured separately from a joint account, since they're distinct ownership categories. Joint accounts are insured for $250,000 per co-owner, so a $500,000 CD owned by two joint account holders would be fully insured because each account holder is insured for up to $250,000. Likewise, accounts owned by corporations or partnerships are also considered a distinct ownership category. That means that businesses with more than $250,000 in their bank account won't get the excess amount insured, unless they split the funds between different banks, since each bank gets its own insurance limits. If, for example, Sarah has $250,000 in a joint savings account and $200,000 in a checking account as a single owner, her money is fully insured. Even though the total deposits exceed $250,000, the money is split between different ownership categories, so each account is insured separately. On the other hand, if Cameron has $200,000 in a high-yield savings account and $125,000 in a CD at the same bank in his name alone, $75,000 of his deposits won't be insured. To make sure his money is entirely federally insured, he could open an account at a separate FDIC-insured bank or transfer some of the money into a jointly owned account. Keep in mind there are legal and tax implications of a joint bank account, so understand how a joint bank account works. FDIC insurance also protects interest earnings, as long as the principal and interest combined don't exceed the $250,000 cap. Now, if you have $248,000 in a CD account that has earned $2,000 in interest, the full amount is covered because your account doesn't exceed the insurance limit. The FDIC doesn't insure investments. Here are some items that aren't bank deposits and aren't covered by FDIC insurance, even if they're in an account with a bank's name on it or if you bought one at a bank: Stocks Bonds Mutual funds Annuities Life insurance policies The FDIC also doesn't cover the contents of your safe-deposit box either. Payment providers, such as PayPal and Venmo, also don't qualify for FDIC insurance because they aren't banks. If you're not sure whether all your deposits are FDIC-insured, talk to a bank representative or use the FDIC's Electronic Deposit Insurance Estimator (EDIE) and enter information about your accounts. If you have less than $250,000 at a federally insured bank, all of your money is protected. Once you exceed that amount, you can safeguard your money and maximize insurance protection with a little strategic organization. Use multiple banks. Spreading your money between different FDIC-insured banks is one way to keep your cash protected. If, for example, you had $300,000, you could keep $200,000 at Bank of America and $100,000 at Chase (both banks are members of FDIC). Consider a trust. A trust is a legal vehicle that enables a third party — a trustee — to hold and direct assets in a trust fund on behalf of a beneficiary. The advantage of a trust is that it expands your options when managing your assets. Trusts also afford more protection because as many as five beneficiaries are insurable for up to $250,000 each. Keep your cash in different account categories. Joint account ownership offers more protection if your federally insured bank fails than single-account ownership because each account owner is insured for up to $250,000. So, if a couple had $500,000 in a joint savings account, their money would be insured by the FDIC — if they didn't have any other money in a joint account at that bank. A savings account of a single owner with $500,000 would only be insured for half that amount. The table below shows how different account ownership categories can affect your deposit insurance coverage. DIFFERENT TYPES OF ACCOUNT OWNERSHIP INSURED UNINSURED Account holder A (single ownership)Savings: $50,000CD: $250,000 $250,000 $50,000 Account holders A and B (joint ownership)Savings: $150,000CD: $325,000 $500,000 $0 Account holder C (Trust with up to 5 beneficiaries insured for up to $250,000 each)Beneficiary 1: $250,000Beneficiary 2: $250,000Beneficiary 3: $250,000Beneficiary 4: $250,000Beneficiary 5: $250,000 $1.25 million $0 Depositors don't need to file insurance claims to recoup their deposits. Nor do they need to apply for deposit insurance when they open up a bank account at an FDIC-insured institution. When a bank fails, the FDIC pays depositors by giving them an account at another insured bank in the amount equal to what they had at the failed bank, up to the insurance limits. If there's no bank to acquire the deposits, the FDIC simply issues the depositor a check usually within a few days. The former is usually what happens when a bank fails. Note that while the FDIC guarantees depositors won't lose any money up to the covered amount, there's no guarantee that if the funds move to a new bank they will earn the same interest rate. However, depositors can always withdraw the funds after a new bank acquires them with no penalty. It can take a few years to recover deposits that exceed the insurance limit. As the FDIC sells off a failed bank's assets, it typically issues periodic payments to depositors. Funds that exceed insurance limits are repaid on a cents-on-the-dollar basis. Silicon Valley Bank, for example, didn't have insurance coverage for more than 94 percent of its total deposits as of the end of 2022, according to the Federal Reserve. The FDIC announced it would pay back uninsured deposits in receivership certificates and dividend payments as it sells the closed bank's assets. Still, it's best to make sure your deposits don't exceed the FDIC limits, so you can readily access your insured funds as soon as the failed bank is acquired by another bank or the FDIC pays off closed accounts. Did you know? Some of the largest bank failures in U.S. history have happened in the past few years. It's common normal for there to be at least one bank failure in a year. This is why it's always smart to keep your money at an FDIC bank and within the deposit insurance guidelines. Why was the FDIC created? The FDIC was created in 1933 to protect consumers when financial institutions fail and are forced to close their doors. During the Great Depression, insurance for banks was not available. So when banks failed, Americans lost their savings. Now when banks fail, the FDIC steps in to protect depositors and their money. 'Bank failures are unusual,' says Mark Hamrick, Bankrate's senior economic analyst and Washington bureau chief. 'But when they happen, affecting covered institutions, FDIC coverage is important.' Having that insurance is a crucial backstop to financial uncertainty. Consumers can ensure that all of their deposits within the insurance guidelines are guaranteed by the government, and they don't have to worry about withdrawing their money from the bank. If your bank fails, the FDIC will pay out the insured amount by either setting up a new account at another bank or issuing you a check within a few days – often the next business day — so you should have access to your money pretty quickly. Generally, you can continue to bank as if a failure didn't happen immediately after a bank failure is announced. Which institutions are covered by FDIC insurance? Most banks, including online-only banks, offer deposit customers FDIC insurance. An online bank that's FDIC-insured has the same FDIC coverage as a brick-and-mortar bank. If you open an account with an FDIC-insured bank, you are automatically enrolled in the federal insurance. It's rare for a bank not to have FDIC insurance, but there are exceptions. Bank of North Dakota, for example, is not FDIC-insured. Instead, it is backed by the full faith and credit of the State of North Dakota. Credit unions are regulated differently from banks and have their own federal deposit insurance through the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF). The fund was created by Congress in 1970 to insure deposits in member credit unions. It's administered by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), which charters, regulates and monitors federal credit unions. The insurance is similar to what the FDIC provides, with a $250,000 cap for each account and owner. Do I need deposit insurance? You don't need to purchase deposit insurance because it's automatic and free for any eligible account opened at an FDIC-insured bank. Even if you have more than the standard $250,000 coverage limit, you can strategically get more coverage by opening an additional account with a different FDIC-insured bank for the excess. You could also keep your cash within the same bank but in multiple accounts with different ownership categories. In the event of a bank failure, FDIC insurance provides crucial protection for consumers' deposits. With up to $250,000 in coverage per depositor, per FDIC-insured bank, per ownership category, it's important for individuals and businesses to understand the limits and guidelines of this insurance. While most banks, including online-only banks, offer FDIC insurance, it's still important to confirm this coverage and make sure all deposits fall within the insured limits. By spreading deposits across different ownership categories, individuals can maximize their insurance protection. It's always best to stay within the insurance limits to ensure quick and easy access to insured funds.

Factbox-US corporate heads who got involved in politics
(Reuters) -Tesla CEO Elon Musk last week announced on social media the formation of a new political party in the United States called the "America Party" after heavy criticism of U.S. President Donald Trump's sweeping tax and spending bill. Musk had been a close ally of the president before a falling-out that began earlier this year. Musk wouldn't be the first executive who has either tried to form a third party or run for office without previous political experience. Here are a list of other top U.S. executives who have shifted to politics: DONALD TRUMP The real estate mogul and former head of the Trump Organization ran for and won the 2016 presidential election, campaigning on the slogan of "Make America Great Again" geared around the issues of border security and immigration. After losing his re-election to Democratic nominee Joseph Biden in 2020, Trump returned to the White House four years later, campaigning on issues similar to his previous run. ELON MUSK The automotive and space billionaire last week announced the formation of the "America Party" after Trump's tax bill was signed into law. Prior to their public falling out, Musk was a large political donor to the president, contributing over a quarter of a billion dollars to help get Trump elected. ROSS PEROT The tech billionaire and founder of Electronic Data Systems ran as an independent candidate during the 1992 presidential race, campaigning on addressing the federal budget deficit and fiscal responsibility. He received nearly 19% of the popular vote but lost the election to Democrat Bill Clinton. In 1996, he started the Reform Party and ran again for the White House, this time capturing 8% of the popular vote. MEG WHITMAN The former eBay CEO ran for the governor of California in 2010 and poured millions of dollars into her campaign but lost to Jerry Brown. CARLY FIORINA The former CEO of Hewlett Packard unsuccessfully ran for a spot in the U.S. Senate and then ran for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination but dropped out of the race. MITT ROMNEY The former CEO of Bain & Company and co-founder of private equity firm Bain Capital had multiple runs for office through his political career. Romney was elected governor of Massachusetts in 2003, ran for the Republican nomination for president in 2008, won the Republican nomination in 2012 but lost the general election to Barack Obama and also served as a U.S. senator from Utah. VIVEK RAMASWAMY A Trump ally and former Republican presidential candidate, Ramaswamy has never held elected office, but has said he will run for governor of Ohio in 2026. The founder and former CEO of biotechnology company Roivant Sciences was also named co-chair of the Department of Government Efficiency in late 2024, but left to run for elected office. MICHAEL BLOOMBERG Media mogul Michael Bloomberg, the co‑founder and majority owner of financial data and media company Bloomberg LP, was elected mayor of New York City in 2001 as a Republican and served three terms, later becoming an independent. He entered the 2020 presidential race as a Democrat, but did not gain traction and later endorsed then-nominee Biden.
