Good luck to everyone this year. Make sure to spend all your money on something flashy. This looks to be my best year ever thanks to having a child. ---

u can have as many W-2s as u want…but if u work a lot of OT thats where the govt gets ya …just make sure all ur deductions and stuff on the w-4 forms are right and u should get atlest a lil but of return…and realistically the more u get back the more u actually overpaid and ur still not getting back all u overpaid…but IMO i like getting money back…i set my budget on after tax income…even though i know the GOVT is getting my money that lil extra at tax season is nice ---

Every year I laugh at the people who are all happy because they’re getting a big refund. All that means is you paid in too much, and gave the government an interest free loan all year. Ideally you want to shoot for getting \<$50 back. Paying a little bit in is good too, but if you have to pay in multiple years you can run into penalties. ---

The big tax refund is like the white trash loan. I know a young couple that doesn’t save a penny, has two kids, never has any money, then is N rich when the tax money comes in, they get like 8 grand from new york. They piss it all away on vacations and shit, and they still live in a pos apartment. ---
