I live in NY. Is prepaying something we should do? As in prepay before the new year? What deduction do I lose by not doing this? Our taxes are not escrowed, we pay oop. Property AND state income tax is capped at a *combined* $10k starting next year. Oh God we're going to have to rethink buying a house

Property AND state income tax is capped at a *combined* $10k starting next year. But be careful because prepaying could trigger AMT in 2017. Definitely contact an accountant before doing anything. I did the math... the current AMT rates and deductions for it would actually give me lower taxes by quite a bit😪

If it wasn’t for that, we’d put it off for a few more years We're in a 3 br TH right now and will probably be buying a very similar house. The COL here is just way too high.

I'm mean and I make my boys share a bedroom. But, literally, all they do is sleep in there.

The median 4 person family in our area pays about $9k in state taxes, too. It’s so messed up but got to pay for those we’ll never see the benefits corporate tax cuts

Hi everyone. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday. I see our president is still a fucking moron. That’s why we call it “climate change” now! Because morons like 45 couldn’t grasp the concept of global warming and colder temps! Andplusalso, weather does not equal climate. Argh!

I honestly don’t even know where to start.
He says “do a bipartisan” as if it’s a noun.
He possibly based a tweet on MK/China off a Fox News segment with old info and his friend tried to correct him mid-interview.
He states he understands healthcare/taxes better than any president ever and then there is nonsensical ramblings about associations that even I know isn’t how it works.

Lol. A local station was asking people about their advice for Trump and they happened to snag Eric Holder. He said “tell the truth.”

Most of his statements are nonsensical. He doesn't understand how any of this works.

He understands taxes better than a cpa. lolol. And he realllly rips on Manchin, which is probably not the way to get Manchin to do what you want.

We’ve been watching the Ken Burns Vietnam documentary. Nixon was a real motherfucking slime ball. He was truly horrible - put his political power/interests ahead of so many American and Vietnamese lives.

I knew he was involved in this. He has been acting bizarrely in committee. Also, both the Minority Leader AND Chair of the DCCC sent letters to Speaker Ryan about this and he totally ignored them? Seems legit.

And the funny thing is, the FBI probably knew that way before the press. So what must it have been like for Rod Rosenstein to sit there and watch DeSantis shout about FBI corruption knowing that he is implicated in the counterintelligence investigation
