While doing housework (cleaning kitchen, bathroom) this morning, I was listening to this financial talk show when a caller called asking how to change his W-4 so he'd not get such a large refund after filing his taxes, but instead have that money throughout the year.
The conversation changes to the investment advisors on the show telling pretty much to the caller to don't do his own taxes. This the caller's situation (married, two children) is complex now to leave the taxes to the pros. That any money saved from doing your own taxes is lost in doing them incorrectly without the help of a pro. Of course, I didn't agree with advice and didn't like the way the advisors kinda talked down to the caller.
Anyhow, that led me thinking..time for a tax preparation poll
