I guess tax-time is a lot more hair-raising for the wealthy folks on here than it is for working-class guys like me. Years ago, as soon as I got the Mac working, I just used Microsoft Works spreadsheets that I created _myself_ to do [admittedly basic] tax forms. Granted, I still have to fill out paper forms "by hand" and mail them, but most of the preparatory calculations are done automatically, on spreadsheets _I_ designed.
A few years' back, when I thought "investing" in mutual funds might be a good idea (HAH! sure got bamboozled on that one), I even did a "Schedule D". Now _that_ was a job. But I only have to enter a few numbers, and the rest of my form calculates automatically.
But with the way the stock market has gone, I don't need that Schedule D anymore! (laughs)
