You will most likely have to pay when you file your taxes if you do that.

i don't think so!! next year i'll prob be getting about same amount as this year and as far as claiming 3 more people will not effect my tax return for next year.

if your tax person told you that, DO NOT let them do your taxes again...the more you claim on your W-4 the less fed tax they take out through the year. So obviously the less you get back. You claim zero through the year, and claim it all for income tax you get more back, you claim through the year you get much less. Unless you get earned income credit and head of household then you won't get much of anything. My mom was rubbermaid's tax department for 15 years until they shut down there main office in ohio, so i know a ton about taxes

This would give you more money on each check, but you would get less back or more likely have to pay in. If you want the most money back you always claim zero, and find lots of dependants to claim for the year(not claim on your forms for work, just claim on the actual taxes) If this still is not enough you can ask your employer to take out extra taxes( I used to have mine take out an extra $20 per pay period just to be safe) that way I didnt really miss the $20 and I got an extra $520 back at the end of the year in a lump sum. But yes, the more you make, the more you get taxed always....percentage wise and dollar wise. (with all things being equal otherwise)

German cars depreciate horribly as well.....i own one. My BMW 325i had a book of $19,XXX in May of '07. Now it has a book of $10,265. Damn near cut in half in 2 1/2 years. Mercedes is just as bad. Volkswagen holds the best value if you get a Jetta diesel. Just forewarning you.

vehicle wise the more expensive it is, the faster it loses value money wise at least, maybe not percentage wise...unless of course it is a diesel truck
