The boss handed me the keys to the store today so I figured as long as he’s in an adventurous mood this is a good time to talk taxes.
I did mine a couple days ago. I used Turbo Tax this year. I reasoned that if Treasury secretary Tim Geitner could blame his tax mistakes on Turbo tax and get away with it, how could I go wrong?
I thought things were fine because at the end of the program an icon said “return accepted.” I thought great. I’ll get something back this year. At least I thought that till this morning when I got the mail. The IRS sent me a letter saying I made a mistake and my return would be for $500 less than what I’d computed. Oh well. At least I don’t own them and felt relief until it dawned on me. I wondered if they did this to everybody?
Yeah. They did it to Tim Geitner. And he’s the boss.
