This shall be short and (very) sweet...
Not only did I receive my tax refund this past Friday of $6600 with virtually no debt. I've spent the last 2 1/2 days grinding the 1-2 and 2-5 NLH tables at the Horseshoe Casino in Tunica, Ms. (45 min from where I stay in Memphis,TN). I came out with $1500 in profit to show for it. I've had a wonderful fucking weekend.
I'm RICH BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Added note: I was broke Thursday.
well done, i got to do my taxes this week, last year i got myself 3k, so hope to do it again this year *im not married/no kids/no house/* so thats a score for me
I have a fianc? and two children (5 and 4 months), our house is paid for so we just have the utility bill. Gave my lady $2k when I got paid. I claimed both our children so of course I had to break her off her babymama piece (LOL). I owed a lil less than $1k in debt to a couple friends which I paid off tonight already. Umma give my mama $500 tomorrow cause I love her and I have $4k to do what so ever in z ever FOCK I want to with.Quote:

thats awesome the kids get u the returns lol. and so does the house...hopefully by july i'll have a mortgage too, but the cost of living in so cal is outrageous. a shithole house in the hood is min 200k
Take a grand if ya like and get urself something frilly, but put at least 3000 away for a rainy day. Trust me, these days having savings of any kind is HUGE.Quote:

congrats on the refund, this may sound nerdy but take out an ira plan for your self with taxes, say about a grand invest for your future, i did this 10 years ago with my tax refund, and i estimate i have around 80k in that acct for retirement or purchase of a second home, i did when i had the money, hint(tax time) and also the following year i took 529b savings plans for my kids college. this may sound boring on a poker site..but trust me its a good idea..you will feel great
Tell him what he's won: Well Chuck, TheChipTrap has won an all inclusive debt free card...:) It can be used at any of your local credit unions....LOL
Just kidding. Good for you Chip! Don't forget to always set back at least 10% of all earnings for savings!
I don't get nearly that much for my return but I am happy with the amount that I am getting back and can't wait to get a new set of golf clubs for the upcoming season.
Thanks for all the advice on bankroll management everyone! I am about to set something aside and was trying to think of the best ways how and you guys gave me some great options to think about!!! Thanks!
