this year was extremely difficult for me.
i was in an accident in early January that prevented me from work for 5 months.
during that time i was hit with learning my previous employer miss-filed my W-4 forms and instead of inputing 1 dependent they keyed in 10 making the govt take no taxes out of my yearly salary, so come tax time i had to shell out the entire years taxes in one shot...$30K
hospital bills and physical therapy bills with no insurance...$23K
rent yearly $24K
i had over $100K in january, now i have less than $1k... today i lost my apartment and i have to leave by the end of the month.
with little to no means of finding a new home i look to you my inner net buddies!!!
any advice, anyone want to purchase a tv, furniture, clothes, comics... please contact me..
im rather freaked out...
thanks ..

Shit that sucks. Being from the UK I can offer little in terms of info or knowledge of the ins and outs of your situation; but is the tax thing really as black and white as that?
Is there no right to appeal due to it being not your own fault - is there anyone you can speak to about spreading it over 2-3 years?
Other than that, I'm sorry to hear about this.
- nothing can be done, the checks were cut and given to me already.e-pill
- its just i never knew the taxes were still in the checks and the money was spent...e-pill
- shit, that's terrible. You have my limey good vibes. And I'm in NYC in late October so beers and comic talk are on me.Wolfboy

That is so sad to here. I see you as one of the most sincere people on here. I always envisioned you as the rich, fun loving, tree smoking free spirits working in the fashion design business. My company is hurting so I can't buy anything but would be willing to print something for you. All I can offer, sorry.

this year has been tough, but sounds like you got it extra hard :( sorry to hear that. like brandelec mentioned above, we would have never guessed. can i go out on a limb and remind you that sometimes we have to lose what seems like everything to gain something greater... hope my 2cent philosophy doesn't come at a bad time. good luck and forward!
