    It's amazing how many parts of my life this could apply to.

    I agree with you. Loosing itemization for a simplified larger deduction means higher taxes for me, at least.

    I think the company type would divert that money away from FICA and would lower your Social Security, and really hurt if you went to get a loan.
    When I went for my loan my bank just wanted my W-2s and last 2 paychecks. I think if I had a per deim plan it might have lowered what they would loan me.
    Idk
     
    LtlAnonymous and iraqralph43 Thank this.

    Todd?
    I bet George Carlin had a bit about Todds.
    (But I only get 2 gigs of data a month and have to rely on my WiFi for most everything)

    Pulled into the southbound scales at Ashland OR. They had the bypass coned off but ended up moving the cones and waving us around the truck stopped with his tandems on the scale. The scale read 33800 and the scale master had his tape measure out.
