Sometimes I hypothetically wish there were no taxes and we could just take home our full gross pay, whatever that number is before deductions. It honestly hurts a little to see how much is left once the taxman steps in 😅

Have you ever caught yourself thinking the same?

Every time I see my gross vs. net I die a little inside. But it's much better that I pay them out of my $17/hour salary than Amazon or Facebook or Tesla's profits. They're the ones who need that money, not me 🙄

Right. On the top of that, I had been paying extra at the end of the tax year even after getting all those deductions in my paychecks. It makes me sad all the time.
