Ahh I remember those days fondly. I seem to get less and less back every year from the IRS.

[Spen]

I did OK this year, but it seems to go as quickly as I get it.

Longer you own a home, the less interest you pay... Less of a credit!

 

But they've also cut a lot of credits in the last five years.

 

In the end, what it really means of course is that I lent the gov more $$ over the year. My paychecks were smaller than they should have been!

[cravnravn]

I should refinance into a higher interest loan, we paid nothing last year in interest 2500

Anybody have an extra kid they can lend me for tax purposes?

But he has to live in Florida...

[oldcrow]

he does

 

of course he was dodging tornado warnings yesterday and come june 1st

he'll start bitching about his flood insurance during hurricane season

 

my flood insurance in NC is necessary

 

i just like giving cravn a hardtime

 

in florida and tn i save income taxes and in the other states usually 10 -15 a year i claim taxes and get most back

 

if he focused more on cleaning the pool so we could have a pool party he would come out way ahead

[cravnravn]

My pool is ready to go 74 last week, it dropped to 70 this week because of the dam attic blast the north got.

[cravnravn]

But he has to live in Florida...

As you should too, considering your pension. Fl, Pa, Az pensions are state tax free.

Those storms were wicked as he'll, I'm not worried about June 1, it's the winter storms that the weather channel has started to name, our deductive goes us 10x during a named storm.

My generation won't see pensions unless you work for the state. I have pre-tax IRAs that will be taxed when removed. Other post-tax IRAs that will be tax-free when removed. Good balance. But simply the reality for anyone under 35 (and maybe older) these days. Pensions just don't exist.

 

That of course is all federal - the state taxes hardly make a difference to me. And I'd rather enjoy the services of a taxed state than suffer from the lack thereof in undertaxed areas.

[deeshopper]

I'm in pension systems with the state and federal government, but like you, dc, I also have pre- and post-tax IRAs. I'm not counting on those pensions (including the money I put in), for anything.

You are in the teachers union? Thought for sure they had a pension.

6% is 6% more in the pocket, when you reach the age of retirement every dollar helps. That is why we originally left Baltimore for Pa. That and the cost of land was so much cheaper. Then Pa almost made it impossible to live with the tax hikes over the years. In 11 years our taxes almost tripled.

 

Fyi you really want to make your ira or pension work, try to be mortgage free when taking it.

Private school - no union and pension program ended in 09. Other benefits are better though.

 

6% is fine but I still want services. And both states you moved to are nnotoriously lacking

[cravnravn]

I don't get what services you are after
