      Kahuna is a Hawaiian word, defined in the Pukui & Elbert (1986) as a "priest, sorcerer, magician, wizard, minister, expert in any profession".
      Cojones (Spanish pronunciation: [koˈxones]) is a vulgar Spanish word for testicles.

        Lots of clever peeps on here i cannot compete...way too intelligent for me ..to the OP take a look at the previous threads on tax and Germany and make your own choice but do try and be as correct as possible with your spelling and grammar or you will be told off by the uber intelligent peeps who check these boards on a regular basis for spelling and grammar ..

          But Urban Dictionary which is the root of all says...

          Kahuna's - testicle's, balls, nuts, guts

          I don't have the Kahuna's to try that stunt.
          Did you see him do that 1/2 gainer from 40' ? Wish I had the Kahuna's to try that!

            Wikipedia tells you the meaning. UD tells you how people use it, even if they're wrong.

                You got that right there is no escape here, as a foreign worker you're subject to withholding tax at source whereas the locals submit a tax return. I was told I could submit a tax return to see if I could claim back certain expenses but overall I was advised against it as 90% end up paying more to the taxman here.
