Well at least the top-right quadrant. Or I could do panoramic and splice them together.. hmm...

If you could toss some satellites into orbit around you with high-res CCD cameras, we might get a complete picture.

Let me get on the phone with IMAX....

I that my taxes are already paid. Although I think I've overpaid this year so I'll get a rebate in April. I've earned like £7k so far, and paid 1.5k out of that.

bad economy?

yup. on the other hand, they justified the 20% pay cut by giving us Fridays off. work is just slow. hoping it picks up soon, but three day weekends are awesome.

We should get money back. We always get money back, that's the benefit of being poor and having 3 kids.

So with tax season coming up I'm a little bit nervous. My taxable income has tripled since last year and I'm really nervous that I might have to pay in alot this year. I've never had to pay in the past (in fact I usually get around 4 grand back) but I'm sure I've been bumped up a few tax brackets. Has anyone else switched jobs and ran into this sort of issue?

happened to me last year. fack.






*please tell me there is a beerad joke in the thread.

That is stupid. Why do you want to give the government an interest free loan for 12 months?

I didn't do it by choice. In my last job I was always moving from taxable to tax free so it was impossible to predict.

Because its a forced savings account, so I can save up and buy expensive, frivolous things - rather than cheap, frivolous things every week.

but the money you get on your return is worth less than the money being withheld from your paycheck, so you're actually losing money on the deal, not to mention the potential savings interest brewhaha

for the longest, I viewed it as my summer bill account. file in march-ish, get the check may/june and pay bills.




*til I paid last year.

This year, 0% interest might be better than some of the investments it could've gone into......

hoping a dependent will help us this year. owed 1900 last year, maybe baby will negate that.



for '09 we have one of those dependent reimbursement accounts, as well as moving all our benefits to be taken from my check instead of wifey's. it's a pretax daycare thingy. DRA maybe?

i usually get around $800 back from federal, and pay in around $50 to state.

going to colorado with some dudes from work with part of it, and using the rest to fund the wedding in may.

 

[zengirl]

you're getting married?
