    I use non ethanol in my lawn mower, chain saw and weed wacker. That ethanol gas is hard on small engines unless its burned quickly. like spyder said it degrades, then it plays havoc with the fuel system of these small engines.

    I started with ATBS in 2013. Took a month to fire them. I've been doing exactly what you are starting since. Turbo Tax is kind of expensive(ish). You could almost pay someone to do your taxes for you for the price, but I have trust issues.

    Don't ######## yourself. Kind of. If you owe more than $1000 in any year, you're required to do quarterlies or pay a penalty.

    For 2017, I could have zeroed out, but I didn't. I owed around $1650 with penalty. Based on 2017, my quarterly was only required to be around $400, but opted for much higher because I know better. I also had to pay a small penalty of around $40 (not much, but extra beer money) because I didn't do them last year. Again, if I zeroed, there would not have been a penalty.

    I had an accountant tell me before that it was better to invest your quarterly tax payments as you could make more on interest than what the penalties would be.

    Not a real big house, just a bigger shack. Lol. We got a T660 with the studio sleeper. I'm not semi retired like some but I take too much time off to be able to pay for a big house.
