What are you doing with your tax return?


Let's have fun filling up this thread with even dream spendings:
Answer in two parts the first one will neglect WAF and the second one with WAF presence.

I assumed you meant the $600 tax rebate. I vowed to spend it all on CDs...and so far, I'm well on my way, exploring the Jazz genre a little more fully.
Hmmm, thanks for bringing that up. Since the Federal government was kind enough to demand I pay more in anticipated taxes than I earned from my self employment this year, (I did all my side jobs as an employee), I have a nice big chunk of money coming in. Sorry, gotta run! The AudiogoN classifieds are calling :-).
On the few occassions when we've actually gotten a refund, it's automatically gone into our household account; which, BTW, does not include stereo equipment.

If I could hog it all-- about $127. I'd guess, I'd put it in my account for a 2nd Levinson M37 transport or 39 CD player. Cheers. Craig.
WAF wants a pellet stove insert for the fireplace.
I will take a pair of Nautilus 803.


You should never have a refund if you want to eliminate WAF control of the refund. If you plan your withholding or paid estimated tax properly, there won't be a refund. If you're sure your income will be higher, all you need to pay in is an amount equal to your prior year tax (110% for you high income folks). This is the safe harbor; no penalty no matter how much more you owe on April 15th.
