Do you anticipate a tax refund this year? I don't know what to expect. My husband is self-employed, and his income fluctuates. To counterbalance the uncertainty, I keep my withholdings conservative. Nonetheless, there have been years when we've owed Uncle Sam thousands of dollars (and years when we've been pleasantly surprised to get money back). Needless to say, our annual visit to the accountant involves more suspense than strategy. But plenty of folks are strategic with their refunds. Some like to get more money in their paychecks and less money back at tax time, while others prefer the annual windfall. If getting a refund is your way of enforcing savings habits--and you plunk that money into your IRA instead of buying stuff on Amazon.com--then that's just fine, some experts say. Read more about the great tax refund debate in today's edition.
Best wishes,
Elizabeth
