Tax!

I got my tax back. It was only 200 bucks. Still, better than a slap in the face with a cold fish....

I remember last year: 3 jobs, 1 without claiming the tax free threshold. 3 months of the finanical year spent starting a new full time job.... 1800 dollars

This year: 1 job. Full time. 12 months...... wow.... never thought I'd do that. 200 bucks.

It's still money

Fingers crossed I get over $700 this year. The question is, do I splurge or save?

Decisions decisions.

It's possible to do both. It's just a matter of the breakdown. Last year I splurged on a bike, and saved. No idea where that money I saved is now though.... hmmmm....

for 200, the choice is easy - it's not worth saving.....

I still haven't gotten my group certificates. Not getting much tax back but at the moment I have all of $30 in my bank account, don't get paid 'til Thursday, so whatever I would be getting, I want it now!
