NO!

Actually, I always tried (through creative accounting) to get my refund to pay for my season tickets. Didn't quite do it this year.

Also, if your getting that much of a refund, you must be OK with the government holding that much of your money, interest free, for a year. Good for you. I'm not comfortable with the government holding anything of mine. Let alone my money.

Got back a whopping $75 from FED.

Owed about $150 to state.

Cost $40 or so to do it online.

So overall paid $115

Effective Fed rate of 16.2%. BS.

Pretty much get screwed because I'm single, no dependents, no mortgage last year and pretty much all of my student loans payments are going to the principle now since I dont owe much anymore (like $15 out of $200 going to interest when it used to be $100 or more every payment)

I do my turbotax thing as the tax forms come in. I was looking at a sweet $10k+ refund until I got a W2 from my summer gig. Paid $922 to feds on $23k. Ouch. Plus that took me over EIC. Double ouch. Would have paid if not for having another kid. Instead I got about $320. Thanks, 53%. I owe you for covering my car insurance for 6 months.

a couple grand. my wife and i are remodeling our home and we were able to deduct a number of the expenses because we installed energy-saving technology. we also deducted the parts of my travel expenses to asia last year that were related to my volunteer work in cambodia.

no rewards for ourselves with it though... the whole thing is going straight to our mortgage

      Seahawks or Rams

      I was playing around with the ESPN playoff predictor and it shows if 49ers and Rams finish with same record, the Rams hold the tiebreaker.

      This is my thinking as well. Seattle played as good as they could on defense and Panthers still had a chance until those back to back turnovers.  I don't think the Rams played particularly well in their game against us, alot things went our way in order to win.  Someone pointed out the Rams were bad on the east coast road games and Seattle has been the better road team but they just fought a hard contested game against the Panthers, and now they travel to San Fran this week for their biggest game of the season to determine the division and if they are the overall #1 seed in the NFC or will be traveling for the Wildcard weekend.  If they lose they then travel back cross the country to play a team they've just beaten two weeks ago, not saying they won't be favored against the Panthers but the energy of hosting our first playoff game in 10 years along with the get back effect of having just lost to this team could be huge.
