So now every Turbo Tax and Tax Cut user will think of making some extra money by filing taxes for four friends! Then, next summer, we'll get the phone calls to help after the IRS letters go out. "Just a quick question. It's easy." I think I'm going to take new clients ONLY who come recommended by current clients. And, did you notice that neither said anything about states?! How much extra do they charge to prepare state returns and to e-file state returns.

I've noticed that the PRICE of turbotax and some other "do it yourself" tax prep

software is increasing to the point where some of us can actually compete with

these products.
