Lots of stress this weekend as I try to knock out my taxes. I wish it wasn't this hard and stressful to be a law abiding citizen. Slaving my life away at work is stressful enough! Is there a worse time of year than tax season?

Me too
Tax law should be simplified. Tax preparation is not useful work, yet $150 bn is spent on it every year.

Silver lining at least you might learn something that can lower your taxes this weekend.

Lol, law abiding. The US tax system is nothing but indentured servitude.

It's pretty bad. Only took 250 years to completely lose track of the whole point of it all.

Not if you count January and February as part of it. Not only is it tax season, but it's also the post-holiday blues season. Throw in the awful weather and it really doesn't get much worse. I cannot wait for spring to get here.

Use chat gpt i’m glad to know it’s not just me. I was just thinking to myself the other day how much more can a person take? You know we work the first five months of the year to pay taxes just to turn around and watch the government send it out by the billions and fraud and not do anything about it yet us little minions are supposed to file our taxes and send them the money. I’m just so over all of this nonsense.

CFP study programs:

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?

TIA

Hi Fishes,
I cleared LTI all rounds and in HR discussion we came on mutual agreement for 16lpa .I have 7 years of experience and they gave me Specialist - Data Engineering(P3) role. And we agreed I will join with after 60 as I had to serve 60 days notice period. I was waiting for offer letter and when I received the offer letter I was shocked to see that CTC mentioned was 14LPA and joining date was only 15days from now ,which is way early.
Continuing the POST (++)
