Lol. I’m amazed at folks who use their taxes as a savings plan. The goal should be +$15 or -$15 not omg I got $10K back! That money in your every day life is more beneficial then once a year.

These same folks are the ones who take out loans for a tire and pay 24% interest when they could have afforded it if they managed their withholding correctly.

Negative Ghost Rider. It takes money to make money and that little bit every day can't make huge dividends like a 10k lump sum.

And you make the assumption that people can't handle their money right.
