Woot, did my taxes 2 days ago & I got the biggest return yet.
Last year I got 4,600 ish (i don't remember exactly)
This year wee got
5,965.00
:love:WOOT
hmm, now what to do with it lol....
That's real good and all, but you should be ashamed of yourself for giving the government a FREE LOAN for $5,965.00 that they are now paying back to you with 0% interest. :(
I prefer more money per paycheck...that's why my wife adn I are only getting back around $2000...and $1800 of that is because wee had a kid :O and all of it is going to pay our stupid property taxes on the house :( god damn government needs to stop taking all our money for taxes...why don't they have a bake sale or do something productive to earn this tax money
5965.... O_o
...
* feinicks cries...

lol, I am not ashamed, i am happy!!
lol, I do understand your point of view. This was our 1st year wee filed jointly because wee are married. Wee do to have a kid, 16 month old son. But last year wee were not married so I claimed head of household. But I make enough to let the goverment take my money to give it back so I can look forward to a huge check like such.
The one thing that may change my mind on claiming 0 when I can claim 3 on my checks is probably when wee get a house (wee rent :( ) Wee hope to be in one next year. Our goal at least. Wee are going on a vacation with this. If I had made sure I got more money per pay check wee would not be able to do this. But I understand the whole know interest thing
but meh... it is ok for me I suppose
I don't know how the US works, but how did you rack up such a big amount?
US tax rates are WAY better than in Australia. Highest bracket here is like 47% if you're earning over $95k/yr from memory (might have been lowered recently).
that's a nice amount, real nice. wish i had money like that

ZOMG
I think it's 44% here, only for
gifting over $27k in any one year. Income tax is capped at 39% I think.
