$1300. Hookers and blow here I come.

I was VERY happy when I found out our return was for $5500.

We owed more than that last year. Which sucked.

We made some adjustments but unbelievably we still owe over $1k.

We owed nearly 2k last year. We made some adjustments (mainly withheld at a single instead of a married rate) and took our taxes to someone that knew what they were doing and bam, we get a nice refund. We should've done that last year as I bet we wouldn't have owed, there was alot of stuff we could've written off and didn't. Since my wife does outside sales and doesn't have an office in the STL area, there's alot of stuff that she's allowed to write off.

I just got a notice from my mortgage company telling me that I had an escrow surplus and my mortgage payment was giong to be $60 less this year.

Not really a tax return, but I don't want to add to many "raves" in one day.

These are not tax returns. They are tax refunds.

Well, she does make a bit more than me but nothing that substantial. Its just nice come tax time when we get to write off a bunch of stuff due to her job.

Mine was only $100 or so, but for a poor college student it's more like $1000.

What does your tax refund have to do with your grades?
