Tall Tales of Taxes

[jainen]

One of my clients runs a successful business but can’t be bothered making estimated payments. This year I thought it might be different.

“Wasn’t your wife upset about that big tax bill last time?” I asked him.

“Upset! She was so mad she hardly spoke to me for months.”

“Well then, I guess you learned your lesson and started paying those quarterlies.”

“I sure did learn,” he grinned. “This year I’m filing an extension so I don’t have to bring the return home until after she’s past all that.”

I have a couple of clients who would gladly pay the estimated tax penalties if they could be sure that meant their wives wouldn't speak to them for months.
