Poll question: I've 153 vacation hours saved up (& need some cash-out advice)
Edited on Mon Jun-21-04 09:17 PM by HypnoToad
Should I reduce my # of dependents from 0 to 1 so they take out fewer in taxes then cash in 40 hours?

(this will help me purchase a new camera while not deplete my savings account in the process.)

Thanks!

1. I don't really understand the question.

2. How do you reduce something from 0 to 1?
But assuming that was a typo, it might be a good short-term move.

You can always switch it back once you've gotten the vacation cash.

5. Sillily worded; reducing the amount of taxes they take out by increasing
the # of dependents.

I used 2 as my 2nd job earns me rather less than $1000 per year. :-)

I haven't sent it in, but will if I don't get the web design work...

6. I like my job...
I'd still have 3 weeks to use for visiting relatives and such...

Dunno. I likely will while there's still a window of opportunity...
