Taxes

Question

What do you use for taxes?I&rsquo;ve been using TurboTax for years, but it sucks and they want to charge almost $250 for ME to prepare my taxes through their software.

You should consider working with an accountant. That person's fees might be a bit higher than the $250 TurboTax wants to charge you, but a good accountant can help you find (legal) ways to save on your taxes.My situation isn't as complex as yours (income from work, some investments, and a bit of money from a side gig) but what I pay my accountant each year actually saves me more.

I've been using H&R Block's tax software (the "Deluxe" version, which supports investments, etc.) for years. It's not the greatest software, but it gets the job done.How is TurboTax costing you $250? Do you need to file in multiple states?
