So here we are...Income tax return time!!!

[quickdodge®]

Let's read it. What do you guys have planned for your returns? Later, QD.

[ludeguy420]

wish i could spend them on my car but we are tring to buy a house so its already spent

[Dylan]

I'm definitely getting my car repainted with mine, and whatever I have left over I'm paying off bills with.

[Bacon]

Buying just a couple of things for the car and the rest goes to a new place to live and school.

[B18c1Turboed]

Paying my truck off... And a mini vacation with the wife :)

[RL...]

Savings account.

[Echonova]

I plan on cashing mine and keeping it in a coffee can on top of the fridge, right side, towards the back.

[allmotor-teg]

save some and go to miami for couple of day!! nothing for car.

[Skorcher]

We'll see if I get any back. Ever since I got married a few years ago we've owed every time.

[quickdodge®]

Forgot to put mine.

Putting down payment on newer car, buying a couple of NOS parts for the CVCC (roll door center console and hatch emblem), getting the radio rewired with satellite built in in the CVCC, getting granite counter tops (with under mount granite sink) and getting all new stainless appliances for kitchen.

Can't wait. Later, QD.

So you decided to do the radio instead of getting the seats redone?

[1MP0RTL0V3R]

Depending how much I get, Paint the car. The rest going into savings or maybe all is going into savings maybe a bit will be spent on getting something for my mother.

[Vteckidd]

I owe $16000, so im not buying shit.

Thanks

[allmotor-teg]

I owe $16000, so im not buying shit.

Thanks


dang i dont blame you for not buying shit.

[alpine_aw11]

I have no idea. It's tempting to do a few things to the car but I could also keep it stock and have a few months rent. Decisions, decisions....

[quickdodge®]

So you decided to do the radio instead of getting the seats redone?

I believe so. No radio in there for 5+ years.


I owe $16000,

Damn. That's how much I get back. Later, QD.

[thesammy]

I'll find out if I owe or get any this time. I'm am considered independent contractor at 1 job, and my other 2 or just regular. If I get anything back it'll be toward my new wheels/tires set up.

[Vteckidd]

10-99, single male, no children, head of household, self employed=IRS RAPING.

I'm prob gonna stick all the money in a 401k /Roth because I believe they can't tax it then.

Creative accounting is a must.

I gotta add up my deductions see if I can whittle it down some.

[green91]

Not paying in, not getting shit back. Im ok!

[DarKStaR]

Putting just a little bit torwards a new bottom end for the integra so i can get back racing. The rest is going torwards bills and paying back what ive had to pay out to get into my wife and I's new house.

[bu villain]

Damn. That's how much I get back. Later, QD.

Sounds like someone needs to update their W-4

[quickdodge®]

Sounds like someone needs to update their W-4

Why's that? Later, QD.

[jtdb8]

i dont know what i will do. i want new wheels but then again i dont want to spend anymore money. but i do know i will save most of mine. "rainy day fund'. you never know what will break in the house or on the car. one thing is good though is my wife worked this year, so that will be a lil extra coming back. yayaya

I have a great granite countertop guy if you need one. I can send you photos of what he did with my house.


My refund pays my car insurance every year. Any left over goes to pay bills.

A PM resides in your inbox. Pics would be nice if you have some handy, if you'd like to include them in any response to the PM. Thanks. Later, QD.

[blaknoize]

I have yet to receive a tax return.

[Scotsman]

I plan on cashing mine and keeping it in a coffee can on top of the fridge, right side, towards the back.noted

[Browning151]

Payoff the new bedroom furniture I just had to buy, anything left going toward paying for a wedding. No new toys this year.

[Scotsman]

im gettin back in the EF game , new carpet (2 dawgs nails drive me nuts) , finishing sleeve

[Scotsman]

Payoff the new bedroom furniture I just had to buy, anything left going toward paying for a wedding. No new toys this year.your soon to be wife got one..................

[Vteckidd]

I love how everyone says "wheels for my car " or some other bullshit LOL

Spend tax refund on heavily depreciating asset

If you can't afford to "buy dope wheelz " on regular salary, probably shouldn't buy with your tax return.

My. 02

[Vteckidd]

Just saying be smart with it don't blow it on something no one is gonna give 2 shits about 6 weeks from now .

I'm looking at possibly being unemployed in 2 months so I'm saving like crazy just in case

[quickdodge®]

If you can't afford to "buy dope wheelz " on regular salary, probably shouldn't buy with your tax return.


I can. I just choose not to. Of course my car is also going to be with me for years to come and a "restoration." Later, QD.

[Vteckidd]

I'm just sayin I see a lot of people prob who don't make a ton of money talking about blowing it on something for their 95 civic.

Not smart, save it, invest it, etc

I agree. I was once one of that type of person. Couldn't wait for income taxes just to blow it all in a day. But now I'm in a position to not really worry about saving everything (I do have my 401K and Roth and such) and I'm just slowly fixing up my house and spending it more on stuff that's really worthwhile to the whole family and not just myself. Later, QD.

[Julio]

Absolutly nothing. I need nothing. Savings. Stack my riches..lmao.. No, but seriously, I'm with Vteckidd.. Be smart.

[teh bri]

save some and go to miami for couple of day!! nothing for car.

I'm going to Miami too, then PCB for Spring Break.

Yes. Saving is always the first thing. Have to look after the fam and house first. I was just looking out side and I have to get someone to stop this river from flowing across my driveway and yard. Pluss I would like a small shop behind the house to do some side work after work.

[Echonova]

In all seriousness... I lost my ass (and all faith) in the market.

I'm stacking hard currency for what's coming soon (it's inevitable), tax return will only be a small addition to that. The only debt I still have is my house, and hyper-inflation will make that easier to pay off.

If for some reason I'm wrong... I still can't lose.

[Echonova]

GOD! Where does "owing" money come from? I thought my 1500 was alot.When you're 10-99 you don't pay taxes until you file. Usually it helps if you do it quarterly, but most people have no idea how much you pay in taxes, only what you "net".


When you get money back, it means you lent the Government money tax-free (over-paid) for a year. Shame they won't return the favor if the roles are reversed.

In every transaction (market or otherwise), there are winners and losers. If someone increases their wealth, someone else has lost some. The trick is to maximize your advantage in any transaction, and you can do that at any point - it does not matter if the market is moving up or down. Look for any transaction where it is undervalued.

Nothing the stock market does makes sense to me anymore. I truly believe they are doing nothing but preparing to steal your wealth in order to pad their pockets when it all comes tumbling down. Look at the debt America and the European countries have racked up... There is not enough money in the world to pay that off. I do not however, subscribe to the Chinese ending up owning everything. I think they are in just as bad shape as we are, but since they are a Communist dictatorship their books are not open like ours are.


http://www.keeptalkinggreece.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/tin-foil-hat.jpgLOL, not too far from the truth. And I'm OK with that.

LOL, not too far from the truth. And I'm OK with that.

It doesn't make a difference who is in power. The transactions are just a movement of power from one individual or group to another, and the power is just the ability to get others to do what you wish. The transactions still exist, and you have to look for ways to take advantage of them. The debt of countries does not matter in this case, as you can look for way to take advantage of transactions anywhere in the world. Even if the entire world's economy partially collapsed, that is just an opportunity to get investments under their normal value. Look for any transaction, in or out of the market, that you can gain something that is currently undervalued, but is unlikely to stay undervalued long-term.

[Echonova]

Partial collapse? If America goes, who will (or can) save us??? Don't misunderstand... America will still be here (I'm not THAT crazy). But financially as a country we are headed down a road that only leads over a cliff. More over, for the righteous indignation of the selfish generation that has been raised, will make sure of it.


So while macro-economic theories still hold water, most people will be just looking for food. Never fear though... Our Government is sure to take control of the emergency and implement measures "for our own good".

^ Now go take out the Behemoth inside! lolol

But I'll probably buy a car to flip and then pocket a little more than I had. lol It'll most likely be my maintenance/insurance fund for the year otherwise.

[Vteckidd]

GOD! Where does "owing" money come from? I thought my 1500 was alot.

I'm 10-99 subcontractor, I bill hourly rate $XX/HR, they pay me after I invoice, I'm responsible for paying all taxes.

Figure $16000ish cause I'm in the 15-20% bracket. Reverse math you can figure my income.

[Vteckidd]

I'm waiting for the market to tank again so I can buy up , guns blazing. The govt will never let us fail, they'll just hyper inflate

Owning stocks at 7000 is awesome because we all know its going to 12000 again

If I had more liquid cash I'd buy real estate but I'm holding around 30k backup. Keeping debt low, no house or car payment. Dumping money in aggressive mutual funds, fingers crossed I can parachute out in 10 years with 300-500k

The world has tied into the US economic system. The US is still the world's strongest ecomony by far. Even with a partial collapse, the entre world would suffer the same, and the US would recover more quickly than any other nation. Just look at the housing bubble, that is small scale. The better areas lost less value, and recover quicker.
Holding onto paper money is one of the worst ideas - it makes no interest for you, and it is one of the easiest things to devalue. Gold is so high, that it has only one way to go - down in value.

Look at history, specifically the Great Depression. IF we came to that again, look at what was of value - land and purchased goods. People grew their own food, but would trade their land in small parcels for goods that they needed. Notice that it was only about 10 years - that is a short time in the stock market. Invest in undervalued items - anything that is likely to go up in value and become more desireable.

Bingo. When the stock market started dropping, I started buying as much as I could afford.
People that started dumping their stocks when it started dropping lost on the market, as they bought high, and sold low. You never want to do that.

$300-500K in the market is not even close enough to retire. Don't forget that inflation will devalue your money. You should target to have 80% annually of your current income available to you when you retire. In other words, if you make $100K now, you want to be able to spend $80K/yr in retirement, and have enough to make it to the end of your life. With the way medicines and lifestyles are lengthening lives, you may want to target pretty old age. My grandmother is 96 and her hair just started to turn grey in the last 2 years, and will easily make 100+.
I'm thinking that you will need closer to $2 mil to be ready to fully retire.

[David88vert]

Haha good quote.

[Vteckidd]

300-500k goes.A LONG WAY in the Cayman islands :p

I'd start some local business and just enjoy that. Plus I have some other investments I could live off, I'd just retire from the US.

In all actuality I won't be where I want to be until I'm prob 45-50

[Vteckidd]

I never bought into the gold hype, although I would have loved to have owned it at $500-800 an OZ.

Right now I can think of better investments for me

[Boosting EG]

payoff bills and pay for wife school

[Echonova]

Right now I can think of better investments for meSilver has actually done better than Gold as far as a return, and the stock market does better than both traditionally in the long term. I also plan on buying back in when the market is low, however I think we are far from the bottom.

[Brett]

My plan is to save it!!!

[bu villain]

Why's that? Later, QD.

Well why wait to get your money?

I am actually buying another Accord to use as my project / DD. :D

Silver is definitely where it's at right now. Im stacking up on mine as we speak. I believe it's somewhere around $28 per oz and rising again.

Nothing for the rides. Got to move in a few months so trying to save as much as possible.

Watch platinum also. It took a huge hit and is trading $120/oz less than gold right now and that isnt going to last forever. Gold is highly overvalued right now because people think it is safe at any price. Also, when the consumer electronics market heats back up platinum will see more action.

I can't mess with that gold. The way that the demand has risen lately it scares me. It's almost too obvious that the value will drop drastically soon.

[-EnVus-]

Guess im just glad no one has posted saying "I owe IRS instead" lol

[DeeAOne]

I owed the past two years so hopefully this year will be different. I really want to put some money into the 323, as it's literally falling apart. The rest will probably be for bills, and hopefully enough to buy my lady something nice.

[BanginJimmy]

Guess im just glad no one has posted saying "I owe IRS instead" lol

Im still waiting on a couple more pieces of info before I can start but I think I am going to owe a couple grand this year.

[David88vert]

It's better to own the IRS, due to having budgeted for it, than to have given them a free loan, and have them owe you. My return is always pretty small, as I try to pay close to what I will owe - and not much more.

[Theycall_Metue]

return is going for the wedding and honeymoon. better to invest in something you'll have forever than on something that can be stolen.

[Theycall_Metue]

i tried that and dosnt work out for me. its like the more you make the more you spend. i think of tax return as a saving account that cant be bother till beginning of the year.

[dizzle]

going on a cruise :goodjob: yes, even after everything going on with the costa concordia "sinking". ordering parts for the new whip as well... ksport coilovers and wheels.

[bu villain]

Why make no sense? Later, QD.

If you get a tax refund it means you overpaid throughout the year, hence my comment that you should update your W-4 so that you can not overpay taxes and wait for a refund.

PS. In real life, do you speak the same way you do online?

[collins]

assuming i dont get fucked for having to file a 1099 along with my w2, that shit has to keep me afloat till i find another job or get the shop up and running... whatever comes first.

What he said bro.

Ever try calling up the IRS and asking them for a $16,000 interest free loan? Cause that's what they're doing to you.

"Hi, Mr. QD, it's the IRS. Mind if we borrow $16000 interest free? We'll give it back by April next year. Great! that's wonderful! Tell the fam uncle Sam said hey for me!"

I don't really get that much back. Regardless of what I get back, I don't really need you to tell me how I should handle my money and how I do what I do. Especially when you don't know me or my background in these areas. I also don't "wait for a refund." I don't need this money. Just nice to get.

It depends on how you look at it I guess. I do fine paying my bills on a regular basis but can't really afford(and dont necessarily want) to spend money on the car. It's just when you get that check and don't really need to save it, it can be nice to treat yourself a little. I'll definitely be buying something material with about half of mine. But you certainly make a valid point.

Can anyone recommend somebody that do good with filing taxes. I've been using turbotax for the past 4 years and I'm getting screwed. This year, I put the w2 no in and I only get 58 bucks. And they took a lot on taxes last year..

I have a CPA I've used for years, he's higher than going to one of the chain places but my refunds have been consistently more than they were with the chain places. He's in Douglasville, don't know if you'd want to drive that far but I'll give you his info if you want it.

[00CelicaGT]

Made 20k more then I did last yr so I'm pretty sure the IRS is gonna ram it up my ass. I got back $400 from state last yr and owed federal $25, can't win. either your dirt poor and get some cash, which at the end of the day your still poor or your living comfortably and giving more money then what you did all yr long. Honestly I'd rather just break even every yr, that means I paid Uncle Sam his share and I didn't over pay.

[Sinfix_15]

owed $600 last year. expecting to be fucked equally this year since i made about the same.

[0p7!mu5]

Roof repairs... definitely a fuckin roof repair.. Shingles are old as hell and gonna run me at least 6k to have someone redo the whole thing. A patch would be nice. Outside of that more tools. Can't go wrong there!

Sounds like y'all are getting too much back. Get your W2s fixed, and dump some money from your paychecks into a savings account. IRS wouldn't give you an interest free loan, so why give them one?

[Vteckidd]

Prob owe close to $4500, 10-99 FTL

[Got Milk?]

Mine has been deposited into my savings account. I'm far from cheap. I just don't have a desire for anything right now. Might end up redoing my kitchen cabinets.

The car scene can be fairly small so I wouldn't be surprised if I ran into you at some point and now I have some insight into what kind of person you are. Thanks for clarifying.


QD is, or at least last time I checked, a truck driver. They make a killing if they want to. A hardcore trucker can net 250,000.00 or more in a year if they wish to. How he handles his return is his business.

Lol.. My favorite time of the year..people running desperate to get their income tax money to blow away.. Silly silly.. Never loan the government your $$ interest free.. Payed closed to 18k in taxes, and will owe about $800 or so.. Some BS. Lol

Paid about 16k in taxes last year, wife paid about 14k. Hopefully we get a couple grand back, but more likely we will be pretty close to even again this year.


As to what I will do with any return, thats an easy one, we are going to do some serious upgrades on the house. Master bath is going to be a complete gut job, Kitchen is going to get some new cabinetry and counter tops.

Tax return is going to the bank. Spring bonus from work, however...gotta get those C5 brakes on my '66 Pontiac. ;)
