Gone
Last night the IRS sauntered into my checking account, looked around and calmly picked up the stack of cash I’d recently left for it. For me, it was a lot of cash. I suppose it wasn’t really mine to begin with. But it just makes me think about storing these transient piles of cash. I probably could have made a few hundred off of it if I placed it in a CD or something. Then I think; do I want to be someone who spends large amounts of time trying to make 1% off of their such and such accounts? Maybe that would be the responsible thing to do.
Sigh… I need to keep better track of these things.
Another thing. You can pay the IRS these quarterly estimated pre-payment vouchers. Like if you think you’re going to owe a thousand next year, you can pre-pay $250 each quarter to help account for things early. They’re completely optional and are just for your own convenience. However, I just learned that you get penalized for being late with these payments. I think I’m already late for one.
Son of a bitch.
