Almost time for tax returns. What are you investing yours in?

I'd like to start an AR build with mine.

Probably get to write the IRS a $4000 check this year... promotions for my wife and I slapped us in a whole nother tax bracket :-(

We were really happy when we only had to write a $1000 check last year.

BTDT... We had one year where the $200 we got for teacher certification test monitoring put us $50 into the next bracket after finding every nickel and dime deduction that we could.

If we do get a refund, I'll probably be restructuring my business so that I can get some more lucrative contracts, and perhaps adding to the new house downpayment fund, in that order.

But only the amounting that tax bracket is allocated tonthat bracket, not all of your income. The big pain in the ass is AMT.

I don't care about an "interest free loan" - my witholdings is set to a family larger than I have. I still get a refund - and the little bit more on each check I would see I wouldn't notice. But I notice the tax refund. Yes I could put so much into savings automatically I choose not to. I can't touch the money all year and I am guaranteed to not have to write them a check in addition to what I paid in. Works for me.

+1 that. CAN'T WAIT!! to cash a check instead of write a check.

Well I had a kid this past year so with any luck my return will be used to help pay his/my hospital bill.

Makes me want to puke when I think about how much I'll owe for this year. Hell, I haven't even paid all of last years, yet. F$&@ing leeches! For those who get a return, thank a business owner... They are financing it...

eh not sure what we'll get back but it'll just go into the bank...wife and I are both tired of renting and moving every couple years...hopefully this is the year we get it together and go buy a house.

ETA anyone need obnoxious gun toting, conservative neighbors?
