I wrote/mailed tax checks today...


Now I’m gonna spend the little play money left over in the 3 for $10 bins.

Ain’t got nuthin left over for the Tech Das Air Force One.

It’s a sad day. The IRS is one of the few reasons I keep a checkbook.

I’m going to go out on a limb here.  Let’s all stop our bitching about politics and paying taxes.  We should all just thank (insert name of your preferred fictitious character here) that we have incomes and need to pay taxes.  Millions out there would love to have our problems.  Getting off my soapbox now.  

@tablejockey 

that's great. I am looking forward to joining that seemingly elusive club. I've got 7 years to go until F.R.A.

Not so fast. Retirement takes more planning to avoid taxes. Take too much in regular dividends and capital gains and you'll still be paying them. Some people who didn't plan ahead thought they'd be swimming in tax-free investment income during retirement, but are unpleasantly surprised.

Fax ... lol ... I get it.

 

BTW, to the misinformation above, Trump lowered the tax rates for those making $10,000 - 216,000 and for couples to $432,000. Look it up. There's a difference between not liking someone and spreading misinformation because you don't like someone.
