If you are “making good money,” but feeling broke, blame taxes. Income Taxes are THE biggest expense item for nearly all households.
And if you’ve been feeling “more broke” in the past year, here’s why…
During fiscal year (FY) 2015 (which just ended on Sept. 30), the IRS took more of our hard-earned money than ever before!
HOW MUCH DID THE IRS TAKE FROM US IN FISCAL-YR 2015?
Sit down for this one! The total collected was $3,248,723,000,000.
Translation: $3,25 TRILLION dollars. Or 3 Trillion, 248 Billion, 723 Million dollars.
That’s a whopping 8% jump over last year!
The entire population of the United States is 320 million. That means the amount collected from every person in the U.S. – even counting infants – averaged $10,152.
The average American family – mom and dad and three kids – a normal family if five -- paid nearly $51,000 in taxes last year! ($3.25-Trillion divided by 320-Million people).
So if you think that taxes are killing you financially, be assured, THEY ARE!!! Only one person can reduce your taxes to the legal minimum – YOU! The MORE You KNOW, the LESS You OWE
