DO NOT GIVE THE GOVT FREE USE OF YOUR MONEY, SO THEY CAN GIVE IT BACK TO YOU ONE YEAR LATER AND OWE YOU 0% INTEREST FOR USING IT

Go now and adjust your paycheck withholding to put more money in your pocket now

Better yet, set up an account to automaticallly yank that amount of money from your checking into an investment account SO YOU CAN EARN INTEREST ON YOUR MONEY, INSTEAD OF THE GOV'T EARNING IT AND DENYING IT FROM YOU

You should strive to get back a $0 refund or even owe a little, who cares ... this will give you the satisfaction of having put your money to work for you

Sorry, this stuff is personal finance 101 ...

At least the old fart knows something. Was anyone else pissed that they were stupid and withheld too much? I know I was.

The replies in here are a good indicator of how much the "tax rebate" govt. handout coming this summer will help spur the economy. LAWL.

Thanks for advocating this and yes, old fart works

Please note this old fart does triathalons in the Summer, so while "old fart" works, so does "voice of experience"

It's absolutely critical to decrease your withholding for a $0 refund and funnel the money into some type of investment / savings vehicle ... it'll only take a couple few years of compounding to have a real stash saved up

401k for the win, if I live long enough to see it, Kirkwood is a rough part of town now. I might have to step to some fools to defend my rep, dog.
