Darn You Uncle Sam


  Hello all well here's the story for the week. I did my taxes and my account said that I have to take my rental house off the market for a while because If I didn't the taxes, I have to pay would be around $100,000 to uncle sam. That's crazy right. I don't think my hand would allow me to write check that big to the government. Needless to say, I still have to pay taxes on money that we made this year which sucks. But at least it's not 100,000. Anyway, with all the number and realization that our account did for us I have to now wait to collect my social security because again that will go against income for me which will be taxed. Can I tell you how much I hate paying taxes.

It's springtime and I am grateful that we didn't get much snow in New York this year thank god and with the warm weather means I can start doing house repairs and walking in the park which I like. Planning a trip to Atlantic city in the near future to gamble, see the water which I miss and visit family. I look forward to getting away when it's warm. Oh, did I mention when I told my real-estate guy that I was taking the house off the market he assumed that when I put it back on he was getting the listing. I didn't say anything to him. We will see who get's it. Since it will be back on the market in November of this year.

                                      Well that's my story so far what do you think?
