well went to hr block today to get the taxes done . i had been there a number of times . but this time i went

in with no appointment or anything. and i had all my paper work with me . i figured i might have to make a

appointment and come back . but i got very lucky today i only had to wait a half hour to see the tax person.

which was not bad for no appointment at all. anyways the tax person comes and gets me  we go back to

there desk  and only 2 mints after setting down with the tax filler. i was done and going out the door . got

to say i think i broke a speed record for filing it tho  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

H and R is a rip, as far as IRALS go, if you have a refund and need your money like right away hit me up I provide IRAL loans for half the price.

They even charge $100 an hour for Tax Prep, I'll do it for $50 an hour, if all you have is a 1040ez, I'll do the whole thing for $20.00

This isnt a AD, Im not advertising to susans.org just stating that I do taxes and dont like HR or jackson hewwit cause there rip offs.

Sorry I know it sounds like a ad, but please dont hit me up to do your taxes... I have enough people on my plate as it is.

hiyea mara well the great thing is i got it all done and over . and have the refund back very soon. which i like

and again i guess iam very lucky  cuase  the tax prep only cost me 30. which to me is very cheap.

and thats cool that you do taxes . thats something i could never do . thus so i just go to hr block let

them do it and i got cash  :)  and i have heard of jackson hewwit but thats all. and no its cool mara :)

btw mara i like your new pic you look great  :)

If you use the bookkeeping programs that most computers come with they will do your taxes for you, the good ones at least - I use Quickbooks.  They keep a running tally of the items, come the end of the year, you just print and fill in the blanks on the yearly update that keeps track of the changes in the tax code.  It works for me, and I get a pile of W-2, and have three income streams taxed at two different rates. 

In the end, you and only you are responsible for them, if H&R or just about anyone else, messes up, it you, not them that pays the fines. (But most of their mistakes benefit the government, which is even worse I think)  The only exception, and only people running a large business ($100K and up per year) need one, is a lawyer that is a CPA.  That way they can defend in court for you.

You can also use the programs to keep track if you are paying too much or too little and adjust it as you go, no big shocks at the end.
FIGHT APATHY!, or don't...

humm tink not sure of that is possible but it would be nice . but i do know  a lady that had  a bunch of cats

and kittens too. and when she passed on . she had left her whole estate to the cats and kittens. which the

estate was worth  a chunk of change. i cant remember her name but i do seam to recall she was in

califorina too. so maybe long shot tho but just maybe there might be a way to do so . in the state of

califorina  but iam not for sure tho . and btw tink i bet they are cuties too. my self i love calacos cats

they are just such cuties. even tho i cant have pets where i rent now . i still love them

Hey Tink,

Ive got four kitties too, but I think they would prorate the dependant return based on estimated living costs of the animal.. Yeah right.
