Tax returns

trout · June 30, 2014, 08:11:28 AM

OK that time of year is nearly here again and most of us will get a bit of a windfall in our pockets :yahoo:
What are YOUR plans for this money?

Every year I plan to get a new trailer for my Boat or plan on an extended fishing trip or just pay off the credit card, NEVER happens :angel:
There are always those coins that were a bit out of reach that I just have to have, I figure that I have done just fine for the rest of the year without that extra few grand why not just splurge it :diablo:

That Gold Pagoda on PP's site is just the sort of thing I am talking about to add to my Proclamation set

Just paid for another 42 predecimal coins to be PCGS graded so I'm trying not to seek out new purchases for a while but my tax return will go toward a new timing belt and head gasket for my car and council rates are due at the end of July so it's gone before I've got it

Probaly stating the obvious but in the 14 years i've been on Ebay from around August until October is a good time to sell as buyers look to spend the Tax refund.

I need to do 12/13 return still. Then I think about 13/14. Dont like to rush things.

You better hurry trout. I have been eying that coin of to. Its just a little out of reach ATM but if I had a good windfall it would be heading here soon after

That is why I've overspent this month. Lots of bargains out there that come refund time will have more competition.
The refund is only partial. The tax #^$#! in that waste of a good sheep paddock (Canberra) will still be keeping most of MY MONEY to waste and they expect me to be grateful that they so graciously gave a bit back(end rant:bye2:.

Not sure, I haven't paid any tax since 2003 but I think I might be up for "paying tax" this year.

That is MY "Precious"

I guess if you're going to get a refund there's no point waiting to do your return. If you have to pay then wait as looooong as you can. I plan to wait as I always have to pay.

I usually jump the gun and then forget things to claim
so this year I plan to take a bit longer to forget things to claim

it is always my mastercard that gets rewarded for a couple of months, then its back to normal ha ha

I got my Ducat and some Sovereigns last year and I still have these.
If I just paid the bills (Which I paid as per normal from my wages) I wouldn't have these coins.
I intend to do the same thing again this year and bugger the bills :diablo: :dance2:
