Doing Tax Returns

What day is it?

I seriously don't know.

I've been doing tax return, after tax return, after tax return. It can put you in a little bit of a trance, but it is sort of fun.

Today I did a tax return for an old man that lived in a million dollar house that he owned (no mortgage) and he had an "income" of $122,000. I say "income" because he is retired. He had dividends and Roth IRA distributions. Man, I'd love to make that much and not actually go to a job. I wonder what he spends his money on. He doesn't have a mortgage.

I also did a tax return today for 2 doctors. Combined they had almost $300,000 in student loan debt. OUCH.

Or the family who's TAX BILL was $209,000. Do you THINK they make good money? Yeah they did.
