Hello, I have a quick question. When you explained about progressive tax system, the example of taxable income was $47,000. When it breaks down to portion of income calculating, isn't it $11,000 *10% and then $36,000*12%? Since the tax bracket explains that 12% tax for income range is $11,000 to $44.725. If I am wrong, let me know. Thank you.
I still don’t understand why they have such a dramatic jump from 12% to 22%. Why doesn’t anybody else get a 10% increase 😭 I got a pay raise and it put me in the 22% bracket and like whyyyy. Its like i didn’t even get a raise with a jump like that
@@ChocoTulak The GOP doubled the child tax credit from $1,000 to $2,000, doubled the standard deduction so we paid less taxes and just recently back in 2017-2019 we had record unemployment which made workers more valuable. For the first time in a long time we could demand higher wages or easily find a job somewhere else with bigger bonuses.
Damn.. I just did my calculations and I’m fucked. Single, no house, 150k projected to make in 2024 (currently at 70k YTD) and IRS says ima owe 26k ish after all on what my taxable income 😢 it really is true. Mo money mo problems 😅
I believe your explanation of the tax amount is wrong, they don’t start with 0 to 11,000 to pay the first round of taxes. If I make 80,000 I’m in the 22% bracket regardless than minus standard deduction and exemption
My TAX REFUND will go to buy TESLA car. No question Tesla cars has solid reliability vs gas engine. At least a down payment for TESLA will save you a lot in in the long term. Saving big in gas, less maintenance in oil change and reliability is huge vs gas engine. Model 3 and Y are more sold cars
Not everyone retires early from federal service. One thing you may want to cover in the future is adding sick leave to your years of service for retirement pay. You can gain 1-2 years of service over your career if you let your sick leave accrue.
Well done! I like how you broke everything down into easy to understand parts. Great examples to help make your points clearer . Thanking for the short informative video. You have a new subscriber!
I guess my question is...how do you prove that this computation was correctly done by the goverment...it's not like they include an itemized receipt with your returns once they send it to you...Ho does one check for this accurate rates of taxation?
these changes do not change anything for me, as I'm below the lowest Tax bracket, have 75K in the bank, pay no taxes Legally, and live like a king, own the house and cars, have no Debt, and I do not exsist to the IRS....LOL
Single people are getting ripped, what is your take on single people needing returns because of inflation can you expound on this because it’s like getting paid less because your spending more gas clothing and food and the rent has been terribly high for decades
This is a relief, next year I am filing single and I was worried about the small amount going over 12%brack, unless I get a massive raise, I will never hit it that 22%. I almost feel better about being poor 😅
