So you would need a wage exceeding that annually to start paying taxes, those making $106K plus are perhaps bothered but not sure about "proper fucked" level.

Maximum foreign earned income exclusion. Enter $105,900

Greatsinger has admitted to attempting to scale the embassy fence during the incident and was threatened with being shot by an armed guard.

That's insane. There are a few embassies you could probably get away with jumping into for at least a few minutes (Cuban/ German/ Pakistani). The Chinese, French and especially US ones are not advisable! The French Embassy has probably got the nicest forested grounds in the city, they have open days. Otherwise the Legionnaires guarding it might not be much fun to encounter. As far as I know the US embassy is guarded by Marines.

Welcome new sock. I’ll assume that’s directed at me. I’m not a tax accountant. I have spent a fair amount of time overseas. Iirc, you are allowed less than one month in the u.s. in a calendar year before you are obliged to pay u.s. taxes( hi mom). Feel free to check it yourself. Also note that all foreign bank accounts that you are signatories to must be declared and may be taxed. Enjoy

I can't imagine PIEMAN attempting to climb any fence

The only exercise PIEMAN got was running off at the mouth, skipping around the truth, side stepping common sense and jumping to conclusions etc etc etc.
