There are so many things that can go wrong while doing your taxes. If you screw up any of the little boxes or say that you made money in Yonkers when you didn’t you can literally go to jail. Luckily, we can march on down to H&R Block and ask them to do our taxes for us, but that always comes at a price. Even if it’s annoying, it can help a lot to have a real expert tell you precisely what you need to do, especially if you have extenuating circumstances. If you’re a regular Joe with only one job and your house didn’t flood this year or anything, you should be able to do your taxes by yourself, but no judgment if you don’t. Well, I suppose no judgment, as long as you don’t use your taxes for nefarious purposes, which is a lot easier than you’d think.
