I won $8,500 gambling on sports this year. My uncle told me that if it’s under $10,000 I don't have to declare it on my taxes. Is that true?

You had a good year betting on sports, and when it was all said and done, you were ahead by $8,500. Then your uncle gives you even more good news: you don't need to worry about taxes because it's under $10,000. Sounds great...if it's true.

That often leads to conversations about transferring money, giving assets to children, or reorganizing investments. While those moves can sometimes make sense, they are not always as straightforward as they seem.
