If you contribute through work, just increase your contributions.

how does that retroactively affect 2014 though?

oh, maybe I misunderstood his post, thought he was suggesting I put money into the 401k to lower my 2014 income.

You're too late for 2014. Nothing you can do now.

No, but if you know it's going to happen again in 2015, you can prepare for it now by increasing your contribution.

I like mine. I don't get it until after the new year. Let's me plan all year long for it.

Just enough for my electric bill and a tank of gas..... Looks like I have to pay a little extra next year or they said I'd have to pay in.

Common misconception. Only the money earned beyond the new tax bracket is taxed at the higher rate. Everything under was taxed at the prior rate. It's called a progressive tax system for this very reason. It's always better to earn more.

I'm going to build my own tadpole wheel. You see, when I was young my grandpa had a wheel with tadpoles nailed to it. He'd spin it around and yell "TADPOLES IS A WINNER! TADPOLES IS A WINNER!" We thought that was kind of strange, but then we had some growing up to do.
