Quickie Update

Did my taxes. I had done federal a couple months back, but it depressed me, so I didn't do state. Just did state. No longer depressed. $902 refund from the state puts me $902 closer to being out of debt. Okay, I have to pay like $28 to the feds, but still.

Dude... are you sure you did your math right?

O_O

wow.

I have $10 per week kept out extra for state taxes from booth. So that's an extra $520 or so dollars. I have an extra $10 per week kept out extra for state taxes from borders. So that's an extra $260 or so dollars. That's $780 extra above what is automatically taken out. Michigan income tax is a flat rate for everyone (4 percent).

So, yeah. Did the math a few times. My total tax was around $1700. Borders kept out $1400 total, Booth kept out $1200 or something.

Hmmm, I shall have to remember to do that when I get my next job. That's a nice refund and I certainly wouldn't miss $10 out of my paycheck. :)

The scary thing for me is the fact that my federal tax bracket skyrockets when you add both jobs together. That's why I had to pay on federal.

yeah, tax brackets are no fun...

Hello Visa bill!

Last time you told me, you owed them like, $3k; what's it down to now? Is that going to cut it in half?

Rock On.

Still around 3k. :-p I missed a payment, and I have hy00ge fees every month. This will knock a third off of it.

[dianak.livejournal.com]

and don't tell me, lemme guess; this is the one that won't let you do auto payment?

Yay for knocking it down to size! Maybe it will make things more manageable to have it down so much!

I still have to pay, though. Grumble.
