you didn't do the math right to begin with, thus giving your gov't a
free ride on your money... not exactly good accounting or particulary
smart


Once again your lack of knowledge in anything remotely related to the
conservative ideals the USA was founded on is showing.

Perhaps he estimates his tax payments. According to law payments this
year are based on how you did last year. Perhaps he did not do as well
this year, and yet still had to pay taxes as if he did. Thus, he gets a
refund.


Or . . . you can be smarter and pay less estimated tax than calculated, thus
withholding that which you really don't owe the government anyway. It's not
really rocket science to estimate how much tax you actually will owe in a
given year. $6K of overpayment is foolish.

Actually... up here your rate of taxable income is based on your pay. If
that pay is every 2 weeks or every week is irrelevant. They tax it on the
gross and it's based on if you claim your rate as single or with
dependents.... I'd rather have them owe me than me owe them at year's end.


Another fine example of extreme north accounting.

I'm always amazed at the # of people who brag about getting
a big tax 'refund' after April 15th.


I've even heard some say, "I'm going to declare one less dependent next year
so I'll get an even *bigger* refund, yeah."

I'm always amazed at the number of people who use the national Treasury as
a savings bank without interest...so nice of them to allow the government
to use their money interest-free...


And damn fine patriots they are, by God.

It's nice that you're getting your money back, less interest of
course, but you probably shouldn't be bragging about it. Basically,
you didn't do the math right to begin with, thus giving your gov't a
free ride on your money... not exactly good accounting or particulary
smart unless that's what you intended. Since you said that you "just
found out," well, I guess that says it all.


Ganzy... when I want a Fag's Opinion on anything.... I'll ask Binary
Bill.... you're not the only raving homo that brags about driving a CJ on
this group!

Poor, sick Mooron. Just because you're an angry person doesn't mean you
should ignore good advice.


He's Canadian. Would you expect less?

I say make drugs of the highest purity available. No

weaning necessary.

Say, did you ever see "Pulp Fiction?" That stuff John

Revolta had might do
the trick.



Haven't seen it. is it a good movie? I got Netflix so I
need to choose some movies.


It's weird, but worth a watch. Lots of symbolism, and the dialog is
priceless. I own a copy, but have absolutely no idea why.

Just found out I'm getting $6200 back in overpaid

taxes!! Man life ie
rough!


You fool. You let your gummint walk all over you, taking

*your* money
needlessly, drawing interest on it while you struggle to

make ends meet.

You'd make a great citizen of the US of A.



Just last week I got a check for $16.42 from the IRS, from
my 2002 tax return. Whoooo Hooo!


LOL. This summer my 2002 return got audited, and I ended up owing about
that much. So give me back my money, dammit.

I like scary, but Lisa doesn't.



Pulp Fiction is a masterpiece..... check out "Dusk to

Dawn" and "Kill Bill"
1& 2 as well!!!! You'll love them!

CM


Lisa will NOT love Kill Bill one or two....I thought two

was better
than one BTW....


No, I saw a review today. She said no Pulp fiction , either.
I guess it will be another 'romantic comedy'. Oh thrills.

I'll catch you next year.
