Just did my Taxes and I'm getting $340 back, nice. Was scared I'd owe like last year bc some coworkers said they did so I assumed they weren't taking enough out of my paycheck

 

[Wolverine]

Hell yeah Chris.

 

[Swamps]

Hell, I am surprised I didn't have to pay anything back. I even got put into a higher tax bracket this year. The state taxes especially

 

[Swamps]

Happy when anyone gets sone of "Their Own" money back.

 

[Barry Poppins]

Man it's wild to think that 2008 was a wild year considering where we are technologically now.

as someone that's done payroll before I'm pretty annoyed when a refund or amount owed is over $100 bc in Texas especially its not hard to have the proper deductions ffs the one year I filed with the job where I did payroll I got a $2 refund and I was so proud of myself

 

[Barry Poppins]

Especially since 2008 was the year "YouTube Almost Died"

 

[Chris]

2008 was when I joined my first wrestling forum

 

[Chris]

Not sure if anything else really relevant happened that year

 

[Barry Poppins]

I feel like outside of 1996, 2008 is the most important year in the history of the internet tbh.

 

[Chris]

1996, the year I was born

 

[Chris]

Seems I was the most important thing for the internet

 

[Barry Poppins]

YouTube won their lawsuit with Viacom, broadband internet became economically nascent, online gaming exploded, and dedicated streaming services got big in that time span.

 

[Barry Poppins]

2008 was also when the Xbox 360, Wii, and PS3 were all at their respective heights.

I had 4 or 5 1099s this year to go with my 2 W2s. That's why I was concerned. Luckily I have a household of 7 and had an ass load of deductibles. A lot of work and house related write offs
