Re: Rep Retirement Thread 130: Revolutions Abound!

Good morning lodge.
Yeah, every time you sell a stock in a taxable account, you have to log that transaction's net profit / loss on your tax return. Owning a house doesn't add *too* much time to the return - you're just entering info from a 1098 (mortgage interest / property taxes) in that case.

What will seriously throw your tax return into cluster**** territory is if you take in a roommate. Doing that will mean filling out a schedule E and having to figure out how much you paid in utilities and other such things for the year - and multiplying those amounts by the percentage of your place that you rented and the percentage of the year you rented it. Giant pain in the ****ing ***.
What is really going to throw my taxes into a cluster**** is when I have to fill out a Schedule F, which there is a decent chance I will next year. When it gets to that point, I'm not doing it myself.

'Morning, Lodge! First day of work today :)

Good luck!

Morning Lodge. First morning in a while with no headache when I wake up (no, I haven't been drinking, but maybe I should start).

Company (actually the CEO) decided to switch our cell phone service from ATT to Verizon yesterday. At the same time decided to standardize equipment so I now have an iphone 4G instead of a Crackberry in my pocket. Seems like a fun toy. Sychs automatically so I don't have to plug in to my computer to synch. It finds our wifi so it doesn't need the 4G in our office. Have to learn to type on the dang thing though. Seems designed for people with pencil point fingertips. And I have little fingers - can't imagine what a guy with thick fingers does with these things.

downgoesbrown just made me laugh out loud during a conference call, oops. I'm on mute now, and I moved on to another posting.

Is that for the farm you bought?

Yeah, I think a good rule of thumb for taxes is once you go beyond the schedule A crap, you should probably hire a CPA to deal with it. Unfortunately, it costs several hundred dollars to do that for a complex return (but if it would have taken you 10 hours plus to do it yourself, it's still probably worth it).

Yeah, schedule F is for agriculture crap. It is essentially like doing taxes for a business, which I won't tackle. I don't know if I'll have a need for it next year or not, but at some point I will probably need to do it. I wasn't the highest bidder on that farm I was trying to buy, so at this point I still don't have to worry about it, but I'm still looking for other opportunities to buy.
 
Re: Rep Retirement Thread 130: Revolutions Abound!

I have had it for days. Doesn't seem to make a dif but was wondering.

I get it also. I have the feeling that it has to do with the ads being turned off. I haven't bothered checking by turning them on for awhile.
