Its not a refund, correct... but my option this year was to not pay taxes. I would say "thankfully" but the reality was to withhold more to reduce my payment. I got smart on two levels, I quit a career I loved because the place was "no longer conducive to productivity" which made my extra deductions give me money back from the govt this year. So got that goin for me... GB
GB, I look at it as a refund, over payment, or Gubment savings. We withhold way too much to get a large sum each year. Have you seen what banks are paying now on savings?
Put it here ... I can't wait to read it. I have the Captcha turned OFF but blogger insists it be there. You should be able to bypass it.

DeleteThe government gives you no interest at all on your excess withholdings, so even the smallest rate from a bank beats that.
DeleteDrew458, The interest is at about $1.00 for $1000.00 in savings. This way (big withholding) I save it for the whole year for big purchases.
Delete3 nails it. And we've known it for 50 years.
ReplyDeleteedutcher, exactly! That's why it's there.
DeleteNot space, but near space. Sorry, Kate.
