    I wound up owing way more to th IRS than I had expected. Pretty much wiped out my ability to get a rolling chassis together any time soon. I'm pissed.

    On the bright side, I'm gonna be forced to be more creative and have more ingenuity to keep this project moving.

    Sorry for the ranting.

    If you don't make it, you don't pay it.

    I would rather pay it.

    A friend told me, money isn't everything but having it sure makes life easier.
     
  11. I got me one of those ctbank home rebate cards (they pay 1% of your charges to your mortgage company evey year). I pay all my bills with that card. I even paid off my infernal rape-you-new service bill with it. I pay off the bill every month (usually). at least you can get something out of it. you can even pay the bill down after a while...

    If that don't work pay the man in pennies just for the f-you factor. they have to take it cause it is real money.

    I'd rather pay it without the fuckers withholding it or requiring estimated payments.

    I feel your pain, man!

    I'm in the exact same boat.
    I owe WAY WAY more. No more 88" conversion on the sportster for me. Hell, I cant even buy a can of one shot!
     
  14. Here's how you do it... when figuring out your taxes.

    Figure out how much YOU want to pay in taxes...

    ...then work your way backwards. :D

    Money sucks! We should use Stromberg 97 tops, instead.
