Quoted for the absolute truth. Truthfully, I'd take a modest pay cut (IE 2-3000 tops) just to avoid dealing with the IRS an additional 4 times per year.

Well, he did say that they went up 2K per quarter. Last year was a miserable one and I am hoping that my quarterlies drop to less than 10K.

You only paid $3K? Are you self-employed? Or are receiving wages from an employer who pays a portion of your taxes - so that you only see what your share is on your wage stub?

It is amazing how many people see only what they paid in, and not how much their employer pays for them.

To see the total that you paid, you need to look at your tax return.

Are you sure that only $3K was paid?

No idea, that is what came out of my check and was on my w-2. I'm in the Navy and claim 3 dependants so they go pretty easy on my checks usually.

The good news in paying taxes is that you get to keep/spend the difference.... at least until you die and the govt. gets the other half.
