Ok not really tax return hell,

With all the new stuff coming out will anybody else have a hard time like me spending it responsibly? My wish list is filling up and dont know if i can hold back :(

i'm sure ours will be spent responsibly. there's nothing r/c related on the list. :lol:

there's quite a few house related items on it though. 3 new exterior doors, 5 new windows on my side porch. i'd also really like to get the laundry room studded out and install a toilet in there too.

the only questionable thing would be some suspension goodies and a disc brake setup for my 55 chevy. responsible to me, not so much to the wife. :lol:

That sucks,

I better hold on to my taxes, The company i work for just cut all overtime for the hourly employees (world wide), It does not effect me but they are "speculating" a drop in sales so you never know what will be next. I have been laid off in the not to distant past.

X2... ten years of owing. BUT I am not giving out interest-free loans so why overpay on my estimated tax payments? Can I get an amen? :wink:

an estimate on how our tax return will be spent give or take.

40% 170' privacy fence
25% rc equipment
25% bills / house repairs
10% misc

last year we got kayaking and camping equipment.

I run my financial life high and tight except for one area. Taxes. My wife and I are both set for maximum outage. :shock: Helps the government get along and gives us a HUGE return! :mrgreen: Better than Christmas 'round here. :D I usually do ours around the end of February. I love seeing that ridiculous number pop up at the end of it all. :mrgreen: We did major home improvements after the lightning strike this year(because insurance was paying for their fair share). Now I get to pay all that off and a few other bills. Knock at least a full year off retirement. :wink: I love tax time! 8)
