Sometimes life just sucks.

Warning: Rant ahead.

Just when you think you are gonna get a head of the game, everything just falls apart. Never seems to end.
I thought I had all my tax stuff squared away with the IRS, when they took $1700/month out of my paycheck. But then the state decided that because of the mess up with IRS, they think I owe them money and have attached my paycheck for them. Even though the IRS owes me money from what they took, which I probably won't see for months, now I have to get the state squared away, which means dozens of phone calls, faxing all the IRS stuff and dealing with all that.

So now I think I finally have them on the same page, they can't reverse the garnishment for this month, which takes $900 from my paycheck. Great.

Then this morning, the wife calls and says that there is $400 missing from the checking account that there is a charge pending and neither of us know what it is for, since we haven't made any purchases on the debit card or checks for a month. So now we have to go to the bank and see what that is all about.

Every time I turn around, I seem to be losing money.
Thank goodness for having a good cigar to make me feel better.

I feel better now. Sorry for the rant.

    Preach it, brother! I've paid in every year since I've been married. Not sure what happened with that... Made all the appropriate changes to the deduction paperwork, but they still tell me I owe them. Last year they actually sent a refund, but this year they told me it was a mistake and that they want their money back! Sorry about their luck...
    Fortunately, I have the trunkidor to make it all better.

    This sounds all too familiar. It's almost like the govt is going broke, so let's steal it back from the little guys.
    I've never owed the state or IRS in 30 years on any return and then they come up with this.
    I have an accountant do the returns so I don't have problems and even he is confused by this mess.

    Had A run-in with those folks years ago. I didn't pay taxes for five years.
    They never bothered me again.
    That's the good thing about being self-employed.

    Well, I already am a charter member of the Stupid Club (along with Sniper) so what do you have in mind? The Stroking My Cigar Club?
