What exactly is wrong with that? You think he's cheating on his taxes? The $480K he made was adjusted gross income. You understand what that means, right?? No one pays taxes based on gross income. You pay based on your net income after deductions. He donated something like $60K to charity and I'm sure had any other standard types of deductions also. You and I are treated no differently. S.

Haha...Stanley trying to explain taxes to a guy that pays more in taxes than most people make in a year...Thats funny right there Not keeping track of who makes how much on here. Not into comparing salaries with folks..... Don't really care (Generally considered bad form anyway.....). I was just trying to point-out that the 18% figure is based on gross income, which really isn't a valid thing to compare it to depending on deductions. Didn't seem like he was taking that into consideration based on his comment. I'm sure Shedhunteraz can and will reply for himself if he wants to though. Especially if he want's it advertised on here how much money he makes..... S. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snapshot Report post Posted April 15, 2014 And now the IRS is seizing our tax refunds, based on taxes owed by Deceased parents. Congress secretly lifted the 10 year statute of limitations law. Pay taxes when your dead.. Only in America. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xnt Report post Posted April 15, 2014 whats even worse is our wonderful president makes 500k a year and somehow gets off paying only 18% federal tax. Something is very wrong with that Just what is "wrong" with that? 18% is his effective tax rate, not his marginal tax rate. Warren Buffett, who makes billions in dividend and capital gain income a year, has about the same effective tax rate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snapshot Report post Posted April 15, 2014 I'm not sure what is considered average, but I get approximately 18% total taxes deducted from my checks. I get a refund this year. But not big a big one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
