It’s hard to believe, but we’re already approaching mid-September, when 3rd quarter estimated tax payments are due. Once again, I’ll be filing both state and federal. While I don’t like having to make estimated tax payments, you have to take the bad with the good – I’d much rather have side income than not!

Instead of doing the right things and figuring my taxes, however, I’d rather take a look at some of the articles that caught my eye over the past week…
