Wondering what’s up with the name of this website? I should probably state at the outset that I am not an accountant, I do not work for H&R Block® or the Internal Revenue Service, and you really should look elsewhere if what you need is help with your W-2 or filing your 1040. In a previous life, my classmates used to call me Poodle, a silly moniker to which I objected quite often and vocally, admonishing them, “My namesake, Matthew (the guy from the Bible), was a tax collector for Tiberius Caesar and the Romans, he was not a Poodle!”
I then became known as – TaxPoodle! Probably should have just kept my mouth shut.
If you find yourself asking what could possibly be the point of this website, I might ask the same about chasing a ball around a lawn with a stick trying to get it into a hole… eighteen times. That may sound profound, but the truth is I just think golf is pointless — though I have been known to watch it if the remote’s out of reach.
