Tax time today

Retired Bum · February 05, 2019, 20:23

Yesterday I finally got my 1099R for my federal civil service annuity. So with all of the necessary paperwork I went to the CPA who does my taxes for me.

I am going to get a combined refund from my federal and state taxes of $2605. It goes direct deposit to my checking account and should be there by the end of the month. So what to do with this money. I am not buying any guns like I used to. No bills that need to be paid with it. But there is something that I am thinking about acquiring. A nice U.S. double eagle $20 gold piece. Not a collector's coin. Just a nice condition piece will do me just fine.

So what would a coin like that be worth at the coin shops these days?

And so it goes.

You paid too much in. Hookers and blow is an option. I'd say if you want a coin do it. Just don't pay too much. 10% of gold price is standard
