Income tax return ...

[FEENIX]

I wish, we paid just shy of $5K on federal and state.

We maxed out on deductions, tax deferment, tax shelter ... we'll have to figure out a better way for next year.

Not complaining, just wanted a better way to spend the $5K. gun)

What's your effective tax rate?

 

[FEENIX]

What's your effective tax rate?

If I understand and calculated (line 63 divided by line 22) it correctly, it's 13%.

I'm stuck some place between trade you, and I feel your pain.

Kids are gone, and I barely made the itemize threshold.

I just wish it would go for more than changing the signs on the bathrooms.

Well, you should feel good. just look at all those people that you helped out that don't want to work.............
If it makes you feel better, I got hosed for more than that. I always just shake my head.

While I've never minded helping those without a pot to **** in, I never imagined public buildings would require more than 2 choices, much less some kind of Baskin Robbins 33 choices affair.

The things people with no jobs think of while the rest of us are at work.

Guys, take out your frustration at the polls. Liberal candidates want your guns, all your income over a certain amount and want to give away even more money to the IWW's. (I Won't Work). If this bothers you, you'll have to part with a few bucks and some precious time to help elect the candidates which will help not hurt you. If not for your sake, do it for your kids and grandkids.

LL! Randy, I think it would have been worse have I not maxed out my IRA ($6500 IIRC) and Thrift Savings Plan (28% of my pay) contributions ... yes I consider myself very blessed. My wife doing similar to mine.

Yes, I always do my part in the process.

Let's look at it this way; Fenix, look at all the money you didn't loan the gub'mt at a zero interest rate for a whole year!! That's the part hat gets to me! " You mean I get back my own money after you held on to it for a whole year? "Yay!! However, if I don't do it, you get to charge me interest for not paying? The mafia could take a few pointers...lightbulb

I hear you but I'd rather reduce or eliminate that if all possible.
