Hooray For New Math

It never fails. Every year I try to do my taxes by hand, get frustrated, and go an electronic route. This in and of itself does not bother me. Electronic filing, despite being more expensive is much quicker and simpler.

What amuses me is the discrepancies between what I calculate and what the software calculates. This year, I went from owing the government to them owing me. The total swing was in the neighborhood of $10,000.

I reallllllly hope the software is accurate.

If it is, I'm thinking another Vegas trip may be in order.
Just sayin'.
