    No refund for me. I'm not into giving the government an interest free loan of MY money. They already take enough of it.

    I never get a refund, I usually end up writing them a check at the last minute, twice I have gotten lucky and broke even.

    My wish would be that the IRS wasn't taking it for the 2nd year in a row for back taxes :(

    I think I'm getting about $22 back... oh what will I do with this money!

    I'm not trying to be a ****... and prefacing this statement by saying that means that I will inevitably be a ****, so I apologize in advance. But getting such a large refund (unless this is a one time mistake of sorts due to a new financial situation), is not wise. You're essentially giving the government an interest free loan in the amount of $22,000. You'd be much better off OWING the IRS a bit at the end of the year and investing that money upfront.

    Just some unsolicited advice, that is ya know... never welcome, but I couldn't stop myself *LOL*

    I won't be getting a refund because I actually know how to manage my finances and calculate the proper withholding amount.

    Why would anyone in their right mind give the government a free loan for most of the year. While the rest of you wait for your refunds, I will be enjoying the fruits of my labor and earning a little interest on the side.

    No refund here. We always end up owing.
    Yep. We have our withholdings set at the lowest amount, without penalty.

    I wish that I had it before the new year, so that I could afford to hire an escort for Thanksgiving or Christmas. Looks like I'll be spending them alone again.

    Why haven't you asked me yet? Is it because I stalk you?? I can lay off that for a week if it'd help.

    I want... my credit card debt to be decreased by the exact amount of my tax refund. Not fun, but there's 6K of it and it needs to go away.

    My tax fund wish list item includes a real doll. I want to make her out to look super trashy looking so I can have my way with her. I'll post videos when I can.
