I'm getting a small chunk back which is better than having to pay...
How much interest do you figured he missed out on? Does it outweigh the hassle of sending in a payment?
Yeah, if your refund is $10k you probably ought to review things, but if it's like $1k, meh.
You started out by saying it's not a question of the amount of cash, and then closed with saying "a big tax refund is a fuckup".So? It's not a question of the amount of cash. Seriously, would you accept working for a year and not getting paid until the following January or February because it's so much more convenient to get one check rather than 52 of them which are easier to fritter away? A refund IS NOT FOUND MONEY. It was yours all along and some people have managed to convince themselves that getting it back a year later is a good thing. People taking your money and refusing to give it back to you until they decide to is not something to wish for. A big tax refund is a fuckup, not a benefit.

I guess the thing is that you're wrong, and it definitely is a question of the amount of cash. It's not worth the hassle trying to balance it out as close to zero as you can, unless you're into accounting porn. If you're into that, have at it, but quit frothing at the mouth about people that would rather spend their time on other pursuits than sweating over whether the filthy damned government held onto a few bucks over the course of a year.Right. Try to keep up. A $5 refund who cares? A big refund is a fuckup and a bigger refund is a bigger fuckup. What part of that is too difficult to understand?
Everybody in this thread who posts the "it's a zero interest loan" crap are getting negatives. I don't care if it's true. EVERYBODY ALREADY KNOWS THIS so shut your condescending, pompous pieholes.
