Now post a picture of yourself

it depends entire on the state you live in

some states do not have an income tax

florida, texas, nevada, alaska, etc


they bring the average down that you were talking about, if that is an average for the tax rate for an american (13 percent or whichever you were claiming.)


most folk in the middle class in my experience pay a bit over 25% in taxes.

i'm self employed and i've had years where i've paid less, and years like this one where i've paid much more
i looked to state as much income as i could in qualifying for a loan for my condo. it ended up working out and i qualified for the loan, but i'm going to end up paying a boatload more in taxes for the years than i would if i were to have written off more expenses the way i usually do.

next year when i file my income taxes and show that i am a homeowner i will write off the total cost of interest for the year against my income. if i pay 4k in interest for the year against the loan then i can subract that from my income, keeping me from having to pay taxes on it (around 1000 in taxes)


pay ya taxes
and know ya taxes

i paid like $40000 in income tax last year...am i on the wrong thread? thought this was a post pic thread?
