I really like how Turbotax shows you going from owing thousands to getting back thousands after you enter in all the deductions.

Yeah...the pool is on hold. Installing a half court concrete basketball court with Goalrilla goal for the short term. Maybe pool construction later this summer.

Hate paying taxes. Combined income of wife and I pushes our income through the roof, makes the Feds happy.

Seriously tho - it does kinda suck to pay a much higher percentage of my income to state and federal government than most people just because I'm smarter and work harder. That's a pretty crappty way to do things.

Seems pretty fair to me

Kat Kid · « **Reply #315 on:** February 27, 2017, 02:41:16 PM »

why do you think people not as rich as you don't work hard?

steve dave · « **Reply #316 on:** February 27, 2017, 02:43:38 PM »

I'm apparently smarter and work harder than K-S-U-Dub!

steve dave · « **Reply #317 on:** February 27, 2017, 02:46:17 PM »

I'm lazy AF tho. this doesn't bode well for your intelligence ksud.

You have to keep in mind that he is a millennial and a special someone who makes me uncomfortable that needs recognition and validation for everything he does.

Conservative here. Paying taxes to help the less fortunate is part of the game. I'd rather be a lucky contributor. Being poor sucks. Grew up that way. No thanks.

IPA4Me · « **Reply #320 on:** February 27, 2017, 02:51:39 PM »

I still have more at the end of the year to blow on my wife and kids.

And blow it I will.

ksuw, have you considered taking a job that pays less, in order to take advantage of the lower tax rate?

Asteriskhead · « **Reply #323 on:** February 27, 2017, 02:54:34 PM »

I love moments like these.

IPA4Me · « **Reply #324 on:** February 27, 2017, 02:57:54 PM »

Husband of a high school friend makes $300k+a year. Thinks anyone making middle income or less is lazy.

I reminded him his wife is a school teacher.

I imagine he feels as dumb as ksuw right now.
