Just got my return.

[Mabs2]

What shall I do with my $19?

[Manedwolf]

Shares of something? One silver coin?

Five gallons of gas?

[Mabs2]

I was going with $19 worth of Cool-Aid, but I like you're thinking.

[Jamisjockey]

11.94 Euros?

[charby]

Bottle of Jim Beam and a two liter of Sprite. Mix, drink, repeat.

[mfree]

A pile of BK Loaded Cheeseburgers :-p

[280plus]

Yea, a nice shiny Morgan dollar! 

[Mabs2]

I COULD put it in the bank and save it...but the last time I deposited a check that small the bank lady laughed at me.
So cashing it and blowing it on drugs is apparently the only option available...

Still like that Cool-Aid idea...
But cheeseburgers ARE delicious.

Wow I love capitalism.

[Fjolnirsson]

Go to Walmart. Buy rope, k-y jelly and a box of .22s. Look shifty while you do it, and twitch a lot.

[SomeKid]

You took back 19 dollars? Have you no consideration for the poor, the children, or needy government workers?

Reminds me of a THR story...a guy was going duck hunting.  Picked up a box of shells, a box of condoms to put over his barrels, and a box of girly products for his girlfriend.

No, I hate kids.

What is your excuse for the poor and the government workers? Nevermind, hating kids is enough for me. Will you be my neighbor?

[Boomhauer]

Go to the gunstore. Put a gun on layaway. Or buy ammo.

 

[SomeKid]

Yes, with your massive return you can buy, well, an empty ammo box!

[Manedwolf]

That's one box of .45 ball and a cup of coffee.

Oh, I hate adults too.  SURE!  We can shoot pellet guns at my other neighbors.

Go to the gunstore. Put a gun on layaway. Or buy ammo.

I'm actually saving up for a handgun...going to go to the local shop when I get enough and see what kind of discount they'll give me for a full cash payment.

Speaking of the gunshop...  I should start inquiring about that Mauser they got up there.

Dunno about you, but over here we got over 300 government agencies. My own completely non-scientific evaluation says that we could do away with atleast 270 and no one would know the difference, except for those who work there of course, but they hardly count...

[roo_ster]

Viking:

Don't take this as as slap at your country, but do y'all have enough people to staff 300+ agencies?

On a more serious note, what proportion of the population works for the government?  It must rival Washington, DC in the proportion of the workforce getting a paycheck from government.

Some of the agencies are small, probably meant mostly to give plush jobs to party comrades, or to appeal to the enviro-nuts (but our new government is cutting down on many of the more "eh, wtf, there's an agency for THAT? (comparative folk dancing - I *expletive deleted*it you not!)". Hopefully they'll get rid of as many of them as possible. Taken to the extreme, I figure we could do perfectly with 10-15 agencies...health, defence, police, school and a few other...
I'm not sure how who works directly or indirectly for the state...I'd wager there's quite a few...I can try to look it up.

Holy crap...figures I read says 204000 people employed by various gov't agencies...

[Bogie]

I was surprised... I actually had to pay a few bucks...
 
Business startup can be hell...
 

[Leatherneck]

I was surprised... I actually had to pay a few bucks...

I too was surprised: I only had to pay $3,000.00 +/-.

PM me for the address to which you should send the nineteen bucks.

I underpaid by 30k.  Fired our accounting firm in Dec as they led us down the primrose path.....new guy has his fecal matter together.

[The Annoyed Man]

I got my return as well. About 1000 krona (200$ perhaps). I'll use that for festivals this summer. Should keep me with booze and beer for atleast one festival...

[StopTheGrays]

What shall I do with my $19?

After a $5 cover charge and the two drink minimum, get half of a lap dance?

[Scout26]

MBS,

That's what I strive to do with my taxes.  I want to be within $100 either way.  I don't want to give Uncle Sugar an interest free loan, nor do I want to have to cough up a huge pile of cash in April.

This year, not so good:  $880 back from the Feds and $127 from the state.
