Shut Up With Your Tax Refunds

Saturday, March 28th, 2009

Advertisements, the news and everyone keep bombarding me (not necessarily just me) with ways and occasions to get tax refunds and reductions. Well, guess what? I don't want a tax reduction.

Now I can see many people fainting as they read this. "That must be why she goes in therapy!" I assure you that's not the reason. Some would say "but we are in a crisis! Don't you want every penny you can save?" Well, in a way, yes, I do enjoy saving money. That's what I'm doing right now. But even by saving a good portion of my income for when I return to Montreal, I have more money than what I need to live. I am more than happy to think that some of my money goes to important things, such as the health or education systems. They need the money, after all.
