I love it when rich peope like this complain. He has to pay $12k in taxes, but he'* probably raking in thousands in rent each month from his properties.

No, I don't mean people like that. I'm talking about people that are millionaires or a guy like in the story who owns multiple properties that he rents. They always seem to be the ones complaining that they don't have enough.

Or it'* just that they are the ones capable of making the statements that some of us only think of making... Renting property isn't really that great of a business anyways...

About 10 years back someone paid the IRS something like $10k .. all in pennies. The downside is YOU have to be present during the entire counting; so be prepared to spend the day there.

I would have given them the $400 in quarters UNwrapped.

That'* awesome!
Apparently there are laws in Canada which allow people to refuse this sort of payment. There was a news segment not long ago which spoke about people trying to pay debts with things such as pennies.
