I friggen hate the IRS.
This is a little embarrassing..but thought it noteworthy, or in this case….blogworthy. I really just wanna bitch or scream cuz if I dont, Im liable to kill the family pets for some relief.
Advocate for animals.. Im kiddin ok?
anyhoots.. heres the skinny on the situation.
We pay alot out each year to the IRS. We make alot, so we pay alot. We dont have a buncha stuff to write off so most of what we make is taxable. We were payin em a little bit, welp no alot each month to keep them satisified, or so we thought. Back in November of last year, they decided it wasnt enough n put a lien on our bank accounts. It didnt hurt too bad cuz we got an LLC n they couldnt touch that, only our personal accounts which didnt have the majority of our money. After that happend we went down n paid the rest because fuck.. ya just cant blow off the irs.
So like.. dunno, a couple a days ago, we get this letter in the mail. Again the IRS has put a lien on our account. This time its for 93 bucks. N we’re yellin n goin WTF alot cuz we paid their butts back in November.
Wanna know what happend?
Welp, the bank holds on to the money for like a month before they send it off to the IRS. They do that in case there is other stuff that hasnt come in yet. N thats probably a good thing cuz ya dont want to have folks bitchin bout a hot checks n stuff.
Thing is.. The IRS took it upon themself to charge late fees for the month that the bank sat on the money they put a lien on.
ya just cant win with them money grubbin assholes.
k.. Im done now.
LOL Robbie I hear ya….usually you can work out some sort of deal with the IRS where you only own them for the rest of your natural life,no fees after you die,but that is rare.
😯
Unfortunately it is something almost all of us go through…
keep the faith my friend
😉

Once they get their claws into you…
Well I declare! That’s plain unconstitutional!
What we do is hire a competent tax adviser to file for you, they will point out all sorts of deductions that you might not have been aware of and also Investing “pre-tax” in an IRA or 401K is one way (pretax limits in each but the limit for 401k is dependent upon income level). Then you might still have to pay but you’ll pay less.
That sucks, Robbie. My theory is that paying taxes is like feeding strays. If you don’t want the IRS coming back you shouldn’t feed them. It’s not a bullet-proof theory.
Hi Robbie!
I feel your pain. Ha.
While I don’t really understand your taxing system, I know that I live in the country that pays the most tax in the world. (Belgium.) Here’s a little graph to cheer you up:

I think of the IRS as thieves. How many times can they charge a person for the same years? Not only did I get put on my husband’s taxes…they decided to charge me extra taxes for the same years as he was charged for us both .
