    Default Did anyone see the Oprah show....

    Where they talk about how a lady made money on the internet using paypal and a $5 "scheme"? I was knocked off my chair yesterday watching this! And it's LEGAL? Something about how she got people to send her $5 through paypal. and say to add them to her mailing list. They had an IRS or money guy on there exsplaining how it's perfectly legal because any one person can give you up to $10,000 a year and you don't have to claim it on your taxes it can be a "gift" I thought these things were not allowed anymore. Reminds me of a chain letters I went ahead today and sent the $5 i know it wasn't frugal but I figured what the heck

    I didn't see it. I don't really see how she could make that much money in one year through a chain letter. Most people toss them....or maybe it's just me that tosses them.
