Tax refunds mean you lent the IRS your money interest-free all year. That cash could have bought groceries, paid for a vacation, or gone into investments instead of sitting with the government.
Here's why the IRS sucks. A tax refund? It's not free money. It's actually your money that the IRS decided to borrow for the year, interest-free. And when they finally return it, they expect you to be all forgiving and grateful, like they did you a favor. If only they were that forgiving with us. How about no? Think about it. Your tax refund could have been used for things like groceries, vacations, your kids, or brace yourself, investing. Review and adjust your W-4 withholdings to ensure you aren't overpaying on your taxes. Follow us for more ways to save yourself even more money.
