I really do, especially when you get the call on THE DAY BEFORE THEY ARE DUE that you owe into the 5 figures.
To say it impacts your day to the tune of a bottle of wine is an understatement. Because honestly, when you have four kids under five, you don't get the option of curling up with a bottle of wine to figure out how your taxes got so completely screwed up. Well, you can if you want to wake up at the crack of dawn owing a lot of taxes AND with a hangover that a 3, 2, or 1 year old really could care less about when they need their diaper changed and to watch Super Why. (Super Why. That's kind of what I'm thinking myself.)
Can you please explain to me how a family who added a little tax deduction this year still owes this much money? We have four of them for heavens' sake.
It turns out we are being taxed doubly, on personal and business income; apparently it's not enough to own the business and pay taxes through your W-2, you also need to pay taxes on money that appears momentarily as profit right before it goes out to your three new employees.
Blech. Wine anyone?
No thank you, I just did.
