It's TAX TIME and not a single moan or groan on the board. That has to mean that most didn't make enough to have to pay any OR you made so much that you didn't care OR (and most likely) you lied like hell on your tax return.

As a poor old retiree, I don't usually get hit with much of a tax bill, but this year I made a fatal mistake. I took a pretty hefty IRA distribution to help my then unemployed daughter (I paid off her mortgage) and pick up a small investment property. I had what I thought was a sure sale on a property I had on the market and was sure I'd be able to roll it back in within the allowed 60 days. Didn't happen. Result - distribution treated as ordinary income.

So what does this have to do with arrangers? Just this. I could have bought 4-5 AUDYAS with the check I just sent to the US Treasury Dept.

Oh well, beats going to jail...........I think.
