I'm looking forward to the days when i can have a spouse, children, mortgage, investments, further schooling fees to deduct from my return - although if i marry the girl i am currently dating the tax she would be liable to pay in about 5 years would be more than my gross income for the year - now that is scary (and i am not kidding)! It'll be way past the 35% tax income cutoff level - gonna really have to start finding those deductions thenStSomewhere:Hey its always easier if Uncle Sam owes you back a little than scrounging up a few thou to pay in (been there, done that, both ways).
