<prompt> Human: This year alone I have been taxed 50-60k. I make about 125k just sick of watching all that money go away. Thank you for any help!  <response>: Stop trying to outwit the IRS- it wont happen. Fill out your W4 correctly, maximize your pre-tax deductions, learn all you can about tax credits and other deductions, and pay your taxes. You enjoy the benefits of our society and those things are paid for with taxes. And there may be penalties involved if you skip paying all year only to try and play catch up at the last minute.
