Some things just arnt right!!!!!
rent in northern jersey is expensive ($15k a year), our cars, insurance, food, gas, cigarettes, all the bills, clothes, and whatnot..
and they take away 25% of what i make in taxes..
and now i owe them $760
oh well.
the scarry part is, after tax's and my IRA, i only get 54% of my paycheck! That right there, sucks. lol
oh well. time to make the donuts. lol
Jay, i do side jobs, but most are for friends, so i work for beer. lol
and i am in the procces of owning a company, so side work isnt so good, i need it to keep my men going.oh well, im just a little nuts with the way uncle sam porks you.
You're really gonna cry when they switch over to the Federal "Consumption" or "Use" tax- you pay on what you buy or use.. pay as you go.
I personally like the new ideas because everyone, included those with 2 sets of books and welfare scammers will HAVE to pay taxes. No way around it.
Dam them to hell, all of them!!!
and the potholes still suck!

The Best V8 Stories One Small Block at Time

Buying a two family is a smart move IMO, I've considered doing that (or even a 4 or 6 family dwelling) as well.

I love it, adding insult to injury!
I'm in the same boat more or less as you Brad. My Wife and I combined make well into the 6 fixure mark combined. We both file married filing joint with 0 dependents. My Wife works as a Real Estate broker on her spare time so she had a few advertising write offs, but it wasn't much.
I was expecting back over $10,000, instead I owed on the state and got back less than $1000 in federal. I need to buy a house!
Brad, the reason your getting slammed is because of the bonus checks your recieving. If you get bonus checks often, you should put one or two of them aside to cover yourself for taxes.
Uncle Sam can go get my nuts!
fortunately that's capital gains.
Right, when are we finally going to shift the tax burden off of people so they can "live". Craddle to the grave man. Craddle to the grave. Until then-
Bob, your a mooch off the system, what do you have to cry about?
I've worked my whole life, through HS (and I can read, write and spell) through College (3.3 index while working full-time) and then another 15 years of Civil Service.. keeping the Booty-Bandits away from skinny lil' white boys like you in the jails & prisons. I'm still working (though not as hard) and will continue to do so.
You have a lot to see and learn.. about life and people in general.. and then maybe you can bleat out your petty grievances.
Until then-
