    So I’d make a few bucks in interest off it. I’d rather give it to them for a nice little payday around March and to not have the stress of trying to hit close to zero without owing.

      Yep! You’re making pennies on bank interest. Dial in your W4 tight if you wish, but the feds aren’t getting much over on ya.

          Yup. Folks seems to be oblivious to the fact that increased interest rates mean savings accounts are pretty decent these days if you shop around. I’m getting 4.5% in a high interest savings account which would’ve unthinkable a few years ago.
