TMI Tuesday: There’s Nothing Sexy About Taxes

1. Are taxes levied where you live?
Yes – at the beginning of the year, I dread getting everything together and going in to have my taxes done.

2. Do you pay your taxes?
Of course! I pay them every year, and try to get them done in March.

3. This year will you owe taxes or do you expect a refund?
This year I was expecting to owe (I honestly wasn’t sure if I would or not, but it seemed likely), but instead I’m getting a small refund, which is good.

4. Have you already filed your taxes?
I have – I filed mine two weeks ago.

5. You are getting a tax refund, which ONE of these would you most likely do with the money??
a. pay off credit cards?
b. contribute to retirement savings?
c. go on vacation?
d. shop for something (car, clothes, household items, etc)
Usually I’m most likely to pick c) go on vacation. This year I’m not sure when we’ll be going on vacation, so the money is going into savings until we decide.

6. Sometimes you just need to have frivolous, and if you get a windfall from a tax refund, which of ONE of these things would you most likely do? Why??
a. have a big party?
b. loan it to family or a friend?
c. spend a weekend at an adults-only erotic resort?
d. gamble (Lottery tickets, casino)
Hmm…if it was a windfall, I would love to do c) spend a weekend at an adults-only erotic resort. I don’t think it would be frivolous, but it would be wonderfully fun. If I had any money left from the windfall, I’d buy some lottery tickets and hit the casino.

Bonus: If you could be a circus performer, which act would you be? (I know soooo random!)
Wow, that’s something I never really thought about! I think I’d be a trapeze artist or an aerialist – that just looks like so much fun – dangerous, yet exhilarating!
