What are you thankful you’re not doing right now?
Finished my taxes yesterday. Glad I’m not still doing that right now! Ours are quite simple, though: W2, HSA, student loans, mortgage, donations. That’s it. Quick and easy. But still . . . taxes suck. I’m one of those people who’s fine if I owe money—which I did again this year. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t want to see a huge red number at the top of Turbo Tax. It’d be fantastic if it turns blue and I know I’m getting a refund. But if I end up owing a little bit, I’m perfectly fine with that. It’s good to know that I didn’t give our government a short-term, 0% interest loan. An extremely tiny loan, but a loan nonetheless. Thinking of it like this, they gave me that very same, tiny, 0% loan. That’s a few hundred bucks I used throughout the year to pay down my mortgage a tiny bit more. By my calculations, any additional principal I pay now saves me 1.2x its value over the life of the loan. Not a great interest rate when divided over the next 2 decades, but better than nothing.
