The Tax Man
Yesterday was full of fun and surprises…
Let me tell you about another phone call I received.
My CPA called me up and said, 'Hey Woody, you know that I told you to set 'xxx' aside for taxes? Well, you need to add $50,000 to that.’
WHAT?!?
This was a day full of frustration, so I finally said to myself, 'Self, just let it go'.
I drove up to my CPA's office and handed a check made out to the US Treasury. I told him that the government just took another Ferrari from me…
But you know what? I could be some poor schlep working a day job.
Life is good…
