What you're going to do with the $$$ tax returns? Hell we work hard for the money!!

Me, for the first time I'm giving it to charity for people with mental disabilities in Australia, why should my money go to Shopping departments? lol.

make sure you donate it to a place who'll actually use it instead of running off with 70% of the money you donate. pricks.

Well the reason for it, it's because I've seen so many of disabled people struggling once I was at the city, this blind man's personal belongings fell from his bag, no one bothered to tell him probably they thought he was a creep or something, I had to pick it up and give it to him, there's no sob story behind it, just wanted to give something back. I've spend on heaps of junk from previous tax returns, but I get paid anyway why should I go frenzy over tax returns, meh it's just me. :confused:



...Oh and totally get some bass into your car's sound system. :)

Donate it to a local newspaper, perhaps.
I've heard World Vision only take 3% or less for admin costs, etc. But they're probably not the best organisation. A small organisation would cost less to run and therefore more of the money (should) go to those in need. Good idea, though.

7% interest on commbank netbank saver n00b.

Hope to get a grand or so back - will prob just put it into the stock market, or do the 7% interest thing.

depends on so many factors. You won't get much back if you don't claim anything back, but of course, you will be claiming millions of things back.

my tax is at about $3500. made roughly 15k this financial year. don't think i will get it all back though. also, which way is it better to do it? via online or through someone who can do my tax for me?

considering you made only 15k it's better to do it online, although apparently if you fill in the paper version and send it in, you can exploit more tax loopholes
