Yeah I know it, financially I am sitting pretty well, have enough in my savings to cover us for 7 months if something devistating happened. Have enough in my checking account to pay bills for 2~ months. I don't make a lot of money, and I'm still working on my degree, but I don't spend a lot, have great credit, and not a lot of debt. So I'd rather just pay off that CC and be done with it.

I know that, but I do like the idea of giving myself a present at the end of the year AND I want to be sure that I don't have to pay IN at the end of the year, so I always have them hold too much.

Kind of what I was thinking. Better to owe them a little bit knowing that you were borrowing "their" money.

This is my sentiment, and who really cares? It's your money, I don't give a fat rats testicle if someone thinks I am dumb for allowing the gov. to hold onto it. I'm not into investments, and frankly I don't have the time to research something I could invest into and make more money. Before someone says you would make more leaving it in your saving account, LOL yeah I am going to miss that 3 dollars. Also it's a bit more difficult considering I and my wife are still in school.

Eh. We've always gotten a huge return because of kids, daycare, various other deductions. This past year, I tried to avoid getting that big big return so we didn't pay any federal taxes for the first 6 months of the year...we got less back this year, but still more than I want. We know how to live on what we make and what we have taken out, it's nice to get that money back and use it on something for my family. |

And yes I hear you about having the time to research investments. That's why you let a professional do that in a financial adviser. |

Mine will probably be used by Obama for some POS renewable energy company loan that can't compete with China and goes belly up while it's executives and Obama supporters get rich. That is my check, no refund
