One of the biggest things grasping at our hard earn dollars are taxes. Local, county and federal taxes are often decided by elected officials. Taxes are a necessity to ensure the civility and quality of our communities but all too often greed seeps in and increasing taxes go unchecked. Be aware, taxes come in all forms and labels such as the words “fees” or “fines”.
When dollars and cents are taken as a result of increasing taxes, fines and or fees; people usually don't ask upfront if it’s the result of a democrat or republican in office. The first thing we notice is our take-home pay shrinks. It’s time to hold people accountable. It’s time to become more aware of how politics from local to county to federal affect our wallets. Be aware and plan accordingly, this will take the surprise out of receiving less take-home pay. Be prepared to act one way or another but more than anything; know how to adapt to necessary changes, it will prove to make a difference in personal finances. Ignoring all things that demand a portion of our hard earned income can lead to small paychecks and more.
Get Cents Get Paid!
