Good old Turbo Tax and I sat down last night and did my taxes, and it turns out I'm getting a refund of around $4,600!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/boldblue.gif)
A good share of that is going to be spent on the car! A couple of finishing touches and then the big expense of putting A/C in! Anyone else feeling the love from the IRS? Doug |

Anyone else feeling the love from the IRS? Doug Umm, just why did you let Uncle Sugar use nearly $400/month of your money for the last year? Patriot? Sorry, the accountant in me will never let go. Enjoy the windfall! I OWE the good uncle $4! That's planning baby. No waste! |

I just love that everyone thinks that they are getting "something from the government" It's your money man... the IRS withholding tables are specifically configured to do this to people.... wake up guys. $4,600 at 5% interest = $230 in interest or lost spending power however you want to think about it. I screwed up this year and took too much out of my bonus... I'm now getting $160.00 refunded and I hate it. |

I screwed up this year and took too much out of my bonus... I'm now getting $160.00 refunded and I hate it. Oh, make no mistake.. I am not ignorant of the situation, nor do I believe that the Govt. is "giving" me anything. I know its my money and I know the "theory" that at 5% I could have had an Extra 0.17% of my annual income. Big Whoop! But the theory doesn't hold water. The money that Uncle Sam was borrowing from me would not have gone into savings, but would have been spent on normal day to day items, to the end that I would never even have noticed the money. I'm happy enough to let Uncle Sam use the money, and for me it's like a "christmas club" where money goes in that I forget about all year until I get that nice cheque at the beginning of the year to use to make myself happy. I could easily adjust my deductions, etc to "fix" what some of you consider a problem, but to me it's a choice. Nuff said. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) |
