If you aren't going to be working for awhile, you won't be owing as much in taxes. I'm not real sure this would make good financial sense if you immediately get another high paying job, but if you're out of work for awhile and just receiving unemployment checks wouldn't this work? Anyone else have any thoughts on this one?
Yep, that's me, and yep, we are hijacking this thread. I also thought about doing that but never changed my w-4. I probably should, so thanks for the advice.

Now, let's get back to talking about why we hate/like sales pitches.
