Got my Turbo Tax Home and Business CD. What a great early Christmas
present! Wonder if all these tax
changes have been incorporated.

Proposed changes are not law yet and won't affect 2017 taxes at all.

I know, I know...darn it. Would have liked to see the impact. According
to our resident tax cheat
I'll be poor. Oh well.

Unless you have a *lot* of deductions you'll probably come out ahead
by a little.

Well, I do live in a high property and income tax state.

So do I. But I am limited on the property tax deduction because of prop
13 and owning the house for almost 40 years.

I wish! Ours are over $7200 this year, and this ain't no mansion!

My taxes are $2700 on a $1.3 million house.

My house is about half that with over two and a half times the property tax. Unreal.

You're still getting off easy. Our old house in the north east was
worth somewhere around $800K when we move out 14 years ago. At that
time taxes were approaching $20K, and that is after we had negotiated
a 10% decrease.

You got me there.
