With Market tumbling, Inflation Soaring, Is the stock market actually getting better or could this be the regular new year market manipulation to entice new investors? I'm currently sitting on $500k inheritance and just wondering what better assets than stocks to invest in right now
You need a certified financial planner straight up! personally, I would invest in etf and also love investing in individual stocks. yes it’s riskier but am comfortable in my financial environment
No doubt, having the right plan is invaluable, my portfolio is well-matched for every season of the market and recently hit 100% rise from early last year. I and my CFP are working on a 7 figure ballpark goal, tho this could take till Q3 2024.
I appreciate the implementation of ideas and strategies that result to unmeasurable progress, thus the search for a reputable advisor, mind sharing info of this person guiding you please?
She goes by ‘’Vivian Jean Wilhelm’ I suggest you look her up. To be honest, I almost didn't buy the idea of letting someone handle growing my finance, but so glad I did
Thank you for this Pointer. It was easy to find your handler, She seems very proficient and flexible. I booked a call session with her.
The rising interest rate can surely control inflation, but won't prevent erosion of the eroding purchasing power of the US dollar. I have learnt my lesson this time. The banks can't be making money off my money, while inflation eats into it. I have set aside 650k to invest in the stock market now, since that keeps up with inflation, but I don't know how to get started.
Investing without proper guidance can lead to mistakes and losses. I've learned this from my own experience.If you're new to investing or don't have much time, it's best to get advice from an expert.
Keeping money in the bank is like paying banks and the Govemment. Here's how it works: The bank gives out your money as loan, and charge interest obviously higher than inflation rate, and then give you, the depositor, interest lower than inflation rate. That means net loss for you. That is why I prefer to invest, and on average, my advisor makes returns that always beats inflation!
To be honest, I've been wary of banks for a while, but I wasn't sure how to speak with an advisor first. Please let me know who your adviser is if it's okay; I need some recommendations.
Vivian Jean Wilhelm a highly respected figure in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her credentials, as she possesses extensive experience and serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance in navigating the financial market.
Thank you so much for your helpful tip! I was able to verify the person and book a call session with her. She seems very proficient and I'm really grateful for your guidance
Its ridiculous to pay taxes on money you earn then pay taxes for everything you purchase. Then the people who sold you goods get taxed for money earned then get taxed for things they purchase. It never ends!!
And then anything you save is taxed if try to give it to your kids when you pass, and everything you buy that's "too expensive" is taxed every year (houses, cars, etc.)-- the government has gone well beyond their "enumerated powers".
No Joke I bought some sports tix this summer for about 600. got sick this fall could not go to games was going to sell the tix at a loss and ticketmaster was going to report me for taxes decided to just not do anything with them. I bought them and they wanted to tax me on selling them less than I paid for them with my money.... insane world we live in. dont get me wrong had I tried to sell them for a major profit I understand but at a loss just wild.....
Hat Trick taxes. Gotta love it. Who does it benefit? Not you or me. We don't own our Government.
We're so FREEEEEEE
@@morriganfey6079Actslly that is incorrect as far as tax on money saved after you pass. Estate is not taxed on first $12.06 million.
Inflation, bank collapse, severe drought in the agricultural belt, recession, food shortages, diesel fuel and heating oil shortages, baby formula shortages, available automobile shortages and prices, the price of living place.
Government policy has thrown the future under the bus for decades. The day of judgment is near. I predict an 80% drop in the stock market. Investors will abandon stocks in favor of real estate. There will be no money in banks... You must devise a strategy for survival.
I agree. I have pulled in more than $435k since 2020 through my advisor. It pays off more in the long run to just pick quality stocks and ride with those stocks.
@@maryHenokNft Mind if I ask you recommend this particular professional you use their service? i have quite a lot of marketing problems.
I'd like to give significant credit to *Camille Alicia Garcia* who maintains a strong online presence. You can easily find her through a web search. While there are some other individuals worth considering, it may be more challenging to locate them. In addition, Julia has provided excellent guidance throughout the year.
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran a Google search on her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.
I hate paying over a third of my money to a government that’s constantly making things worse
And giving it all away
@@michaeless658 That's the part that kills me. Giving away out hard earn money to countries like Israel, and Ukraine. SMFH...
Same here.
You are free to move elsewhere.
Go to a different country then
It’s crazy to think I pay 20%+ on taxes for earning money on top of being taxed for spending money.
Is still lower income tax compared to other countries, which can go more than 50%.
UA-cam won’t let us post comments about overthrowing the govment
That it’s even crazier to think your dollars are becoming less valuable overnight because they print it for every reason under the sun and Steal from the public stock market
@@escopetadoce other countries have something to see for it. We just get to see our government scramble to spend the remainder of their budget on useless stuff at the end of the year or face a budget cut.
@@escopetadoce It should be zero. Income tax and debt are the top two obstacles for expanding personal wealth.
It’s absolutely evil than anyone making 15,000. Or less, are taxed at all. When you can’t or barely can afford a roof over your head. They’ve always punished the poor, elderly, and disabled.
They aren't "punishing" you. They're ROBBING you... Stop talking like these scumbags are your parents.
@@K0RP53 You hit the nail on the head.
More like the middle class. We pay for everything!
@@littlet7556 I hate to say, most people are not middle class that is "paying for everything". The people that pay for everything are the high W2 earners, think about our lawyers, doctors, and such. They all tend to reach the 28-35% brackets. A doctor making say $350K a year is paying tens of thousands just in Federal tax alone. They pay for everything, they don't actually use the city's police or roads more than you do. Not shaming you but trying to put things into perspective.
The ones who got away with paying their fair share the ultra wealthy because they don't earn W2 and therefore get away from the high taxes.
Everyone needs to pay their fair share.
We the people need to wake up and put a stop to this over taxation by whatever means necessary
Yes we do. This has to stop.
It's crazy that people making under $11k are taxed at all. To the government, 10% of $11k is chump change, but for that individual, it's a boatload of money.
The standard deduction is over 13k.. they are paying ZERO taxes! Ha!!!
@prettysubliminals2555 What???? If your income is reduced to below zero ($11,000 - $13,000 = -$2,000), your income is considered ZERO. They can tax you at 100% at that point. 100% of zero is still Z-E-R-O.
@Pretty Subliminals I’m sorry that you don’t understand. Or even want to understand. It’s typical.. but this person pays ZERO in fed taxes. Crazy, right?? Ha!
Poor people qualify for social programs such as cheap or free healthcare, food stamps, section 8 etc. So they end up getting more than what they pay "in".
@@MrTmenzo Much of these people that make less than $11k a year are most likely students.
It's absurd how much taxes we pay yet the country is always at a deficit.
Deficits are a farce. It’s literally made up.
That's because the bracket percentages grow logarithmically, and the rich get huge tax cuts not accessible to the poor. Not to even mention the money the rich *receive* from the government.
If you want an eye opener, you should look into the unfunded liabilities.
Because the working class does not generate enough taxes to pay the debt. The rich folks, and corporations, which could and should help pay, who can afford it, arent.
Because politicians on both side just spend money without accountability.
We just sent billions for Ukraine and we are not part of the war, not part of the UN. All funded into ftx and back into the democrats party.
The fact that the IRS said they don't audit rich people because it's too hard is another sign of how terrible the IRS really is.
The reason they don't tax the rich, is because the rich don't make taxable income. They create cash flow through debt
Rich people don't have money, they own everything. They drive a company owned car, live in a company owned house, eat at company functions, fly in a company owned jet. And because they are company owned, there use can be claimed as a business tax write off. There is a reason Elon Musk doesn't own a home or car.
The amount of Taxes we get charged in Califonia are insane! Regardless though, you get docked on each paycheck for taxes, you go to the grocery store and get charged taxes, you pump gas you pay taxes, at the end of the year when you report your income, if you made more than what your bracket threshold is, you have to pay taxes. Lol 'Merica
Maryland is right behind you all and NYC as well
Why Americans aren’t collectively livid & outwardly resentful of the way the IRS operates is beyond me.
Because congress sets those taxes. The IRS just administers it.
Americans ate too comfortable and too cowardly... this isn't 1776ish..
The irs is a violent, tyrannical gang.
@@Framer_Mike Exactly what I feel when it comes to taxes and firearms. This government will keep infringing because we let it happen.
Most Americans are dumb and don’t know what’s going on 99% of the time
🔥Something completely missed and would have taken just 15 seconds to explain: taxable income is progressive throughout the brackets. If you move into the next tax bracket, you don’t pay that rate on all of your income. You pay taxes at each of the tax bracket rates.
I was thinking the same thing. This is not a very good explanation without that explained.
You also need to factor in the current 21% corporate tax rate since businesses don't pay taxes they just pass their tax onto consumers. This tax is paid by all taxpayers in all brackets that purchase from corporations.
This is a very important thing to state and I was also surprised Karlton didn't mention it.
@@charlesbyrneShowComments4all BS. That is a myth. They price gouge when they think they can get away with it. Corporate tax rates have been cut. By a lot. Yet look at prices now. You are having the tax burden shifted onto you because the corporations aren't paying what they used to. This is just like the Reagan trickle down economics BS. Stop being hoodwinked
@@charlesbyrneShowComments4all 100% agree. When you start thinking of taxes we pay that are embedded into products including gas which is about 30-40%, it’s a lot of taxes. Then add in sales tax, property tax, and flat taxes (permits and documents like DMV fees, fishing license, construction, etc. Our net effective tax is really high when you think of it.
Well done mate - I drive for Rideshare and taxes are always scary. You are by far the best channel I found to break things down to a comprehensible way. Thank you, you clearly know your audience. My regular career is engineering and the Tax code in this country is even complex for me lol. Earned a sub and a like. 🙂
Thank you for this video, you broke it down really well, and I hate taxes and find the information very confusing. This was very easy to understand and follow!
We pay way to many taxes and to much. The reason I say this is cause our taxes are highly miss used and mismanaged by our government. Thank for explaining the tax brackets with good detail
It's ridiculous, honestly!
im down for the Revolution, lets get this party started
Taxes don’t fund the government. First step to understanding the economy is understanding that. Everything else you believe is absolute nonsense.
Geeze, those taxes more than wipe out the kudos of being employed by the US corporation. Why would anyone want to stay in the corp. is beyond me.
Its a corporation, not government. A bankrupt one at that. Well the UNITED STATES, INC. declared bankruptsy in 2013. Not sure what’s going on with the I*S tax Corporation, employees keep paying in so I guess the bankrupt US is still operating. Not the best retirement solution, contributions too high.
I like how the brackets only went up by about half of the actual inflation. It’s like they are rigging the game in their favor.
Actually if you look at them year over year. Last year if you made over 400k you had to pay 40% now that is down to 35% and the max it caps at is 37% for over half a mil. But yet the 10,500 to 40k mark has increase by 2% from 20 to 22%. So the government is screwing the middle class while helping the upper with a tax brake.
Yeah, and like they are trying to squeeze the middle class out into a prince and paupers society.

Love the content sir! Great job. I understood this, but apprecated getting the new rates sooner :)
Inflation hits people a lot harder than a crashing stock or housing market as it directly affects people's cost of living that people immediately feel the impact of. It's not surprising negative market sentiment is so high now. We really need help to survive in this Economy.
People prefer to spend money on liabilities,Rather than investing in assets and be very profitable
You're so correct! Save, invest and spend for necessities and a few luxuries relatives to on's total assets ratio
This must be an investment with Mrs Maureen K carr
Such a wonderful personality, you’re totally a genius with your work and you have the best options.thank you for your help Ms Maureen
Excellent video young man. I’m 64 and I’ve never heard anyone explain taxes as well as you did. Thanks for the video. Keep up the great work. You just got a new subscriber
Same here
However now they are also trying to pass a bill to tax all small transactions at 600 dollars or above. Meaning all gig work, side money from Ebay, Etsy, etc would be taxed even if it was just a small amount.
Excellent information! So clear and easy to understand. Thank you for your work on pulling the info together and presenting it.
For whom?
Maybe I'm mistaken, but I thought, if one makes $50,000 a year for example, the first $11,000 is taxed at 10%, the amount between $11,000 and $44,725 is taxed at 12%, and the amount above $44,726 is taxed at 22%.. In other words, each tax payer does not fall into only one tax bracket but in multiple brackets (unless one makes less than $11,000). Am I mistaken?
That is correct. The 90k vs 100k example was not the best
You are correct here
You're correct. You're taxed that percent for that bracket, and then moved up and taxed on the remaining. So if you're $1 in the 24%, that bracket you'll only pay 24¢, not 24% on every dollar.
I find it amusing that most people don’t know that taxes are progressive.
If that is your gross income, first deduct the standard deduction to get your AGI (adjusted gross income). Then apply the tax brackets to the AGI and yes, you are correct rates are tiered to income ranges.
I watch all your videos. I appreciate the content that you teach us. Thanks for the knowledge
Here's my idea of a fare tax plan and in the long run it ends up bringing in 55.5 % in taxes spread out on an equal playing field. Give this a look, Here is a plan that would be the most fair to all tax payers. Taxes would start at 50K and go up from there. People making less then 49.999 would pay nothing. The breakdown is 50K-99.999K pays .5% 100K-199K pays 1% 200K-299K =2% 300K-399K =3% 400K-499K = 4% 500K-599K =5% 600K-699K =6% 700K-799K =7% 800K-899K=8% 900K-999K =9% 1.000.000 and above pay 10%.
I've done taxes since 2009. You did a great job explaining all this....

Revoke consent by refusing to sign W2 and the feeling of being robbed of wages will stop. It's that easy. Taxes are voluntary.
Good video but a bit misleading. Tax brackets are not this simple. In fact, income wage tax is progressive. Meaning, for example, if you make 100k and that amount falls within the 24% tax bracket, only a portion of that 100k would be subject to the higher tax rate. If the 24% tax bracket is for income of 80-100k then only the last 20k of the 100k that you made during the year would be subject to the 24% tax.
yes, thank you. I was scanning the comments hoping someone would mention this.
Yep! I thought the same!
Same, has that changed?
He explained that
Oh wow I was wondering. Because for some brackets-that $1 difference would cost you thousands. You’d be better off asking your employer for a lower wage if that were the case.
I like your video presentation. It is informative too, at the same time. Thanks a lot for your guidance!
Thank you. You're a great host and teacher.
Excellent information. I was unaware of the bracket adjustments. Thank you for the video.
Non-clickbait and very informative! Thanks, just subscribed 🙂
This is good and very helpful- Thank you and Happy New Year!!
Solid video and information bro! Very straight forward no fluff. Thank you and keep up the great work 🤝🏾
This really hits the middle class, hard. If the government used complete data I.E. including food and fuel in their inflation numbers, the results would be higher and more realistic.
it seems like unless you're going to push very hard to get up to $100,000 theres no point in trying to get raises
Karlton, I have hopped back on with you and you still bring the best tax info thus far! Happy Holidays to you and your family.
Thank you for explaining all of this. You make it easy to understand.
Thanks for a very clear and well given explanation of how this works!!
You pay as you go, meaning your first $11,000 is taxed at 10%, 12% at $11,000-$44,750, and so on and so forth. Your effective tax is a combination of entering each bracket, you don't lose much being at the bottom of a tax bracket. You don't lose money for making more money.... unless you no longer qualify for things aid and whatnot. Also, your taxable income gets deducted by the standard deduction or stuffing money into a tax-deferred account such as 401k or HSA plan, are above the line deduction so you can use that to manipulate your income so that you get to keep the tax breaks you would not qualify for. Look up EITC and Saver's Credit, it's a bit more useful for joint filing but it might be relevant.
This is what people don’t realize and what the video didn’t hit on. I know people that consider working less hours because they think going up a bracket will make it not worth making more income.
@@joesportsfan6326 and you got tools to not be paying 22% like a 401k or a HSA. I was talking to my lead about this, he said working overtime just gets eaten by taxes, and I said the least you could've done is get your full 401k matched, basically leaving 1.5% on the table and you could be getting 3% more headroom before paying 22%.
It's also a good idea to buy a 30-year mortgage because interest and property taxes can both be itemized and if your state got income tax that can also be itemized. It's the most common way to surpass the standard deduction and a way to get ahead in life. But your standard deduction might be hard to pass if you're filing jointly so you or your tax preparer should do the math on whether you can benefit by filing separately (like if you both work with similar income).
What some people don't understand about houses is that 2.5% of the interest the bank gives you gets eaten by inflation and then you can write off a large portion of the total interest therefore houses are a lot more affordable than they appear especially if you start hitting the 22% mark.
Does everyone qualify for the standard deduction? Do you need to show any proof to get the standard deduction?
@@dewdodu but what about interest? Would it be smart to buy now?
@@braetonwilson4296 Yes, it's sort of a handwave to say "This is to offset my expense for necessity, no I got no proof". It also has the effect of raising your tax bracket by $13,850, so you pay 22% only after $44,750 + $13,850 + "Above the line deduction" such as 401k or healthcare premiums. It use to be half of that until TCJA came along in effect giving each working individual $1300-1400 (double if joint) but that is set to expire in 2025.
The most common way people get a higher deduction than the standard one with itemization was through buying a house, the interest payment + property tax along with income or sales tax would have easily put you well beyond the old 7000 limits and can still do so. And just to clarify just interest and property tax could be written off so further along the mortgage it would taper off, but that would be offset by your mortgage being "real value" being cheaper over time due to it costing the same but you can imagine 15 years in of inflation does to your true cost. The higher standard deduction made itemizing less impactful.
They are killing the middle class
Thank you for that clear and concise explanation!
I am impressed by your explanation of the brackets, etc.. very nice presentation. Btw happy new year
Currently as a married couple making 70k a year in Ohio I pay:
Federal Income: 22%
State Income: 3.8%
City Income: 1.5%
Property Tax: 1.69%
Federal/State Sales Tax: 7.14%
Not to mention all the additional levies or added taxes like gas/cigs etc that we are forced to pay as Americans.
Tell me again why we don't have healthcare and higher education free again?
Then out my pay check I see 401k money removed, Medical Insurance (to include critical illness, accident, legal, supplemental, etc.), Union dues.....All after tax deductions of course because Tax Man gets paid first....no wonder we make 70k as a family, live in Ohio, and still feel barely above poverty.
Guess next year the federal level will be lowered for me, so that's cool. Standard deduction is also going up, so that's cool also. Wonder how much I'll actually notice the difference at the end of the day!
Thank you for making it plain. Much appreciated 👍🏽
I love enjoy your channel. Just Subscribed. Blessings!
thank you for this video. i have never understood taxation before until i watched your video. thank you!
Karlton, great information and well presented. Late in my career I left a longtime employer and started an IT consulting company. It was then I realized the tax breaks a small business can legally use to offset earnings. I liked your advice about using real estate to offset W2 earnings.
My friend, same age as me decided that he wanted to retire to enjoy life. We have equal use of a everything provided by the government - we use the same roads, have the same military protection etc.. but my tax rate is dramatically higher, so in comparison, I am being penalized for continuing to work. Another friend is essentially lazy, has never had a good work ethic and makes much less than me and also pays less for taxes - so again I am penalized with a higher tax rate due to my higher earnings which have resulted from years of hard work. We should all have the exact same tax obligation regardless of earnings
A flat tax rate would be great for all and no loopholes for the rich or companies.
Thats where its bad having a flat tax %. If every1 had a 10% tax rate the rich will go beyond rich and the poor will still be poor. If we get a high flat tax, middle class and low income class would still be complaining its to high and vice versa. Just me but i think its better if the jump in % gap is from those who make 150+ is at 22% or more id be happier. Jumping from 10-12% to 22% thats a 10% instant increase for the middle class. While the rich is only 3-5% gap between that higher earning bracket, its bullshit, irs /uncle sam stealing from the lower class yet show nothing for it.
@@pokeversexiong6737 ...Just me, but the Federal government shifting percentages to make things more "fair" is a vail for extortion and soft slavery.... You're essentially supporting the continuation of feudalism while the Oligarch steals your labor and redistributes it among themselves while they laugh at your arguments about how much they ought to steal from us "free" citizens.
@@robertwilson2007 --- Agreed👍🏽
You say that you are still earning money (which clearly makes you better than your ‘friends’) and you still have to pay taxes on all that money you are ‘earning’? Boo hoo…. If your taxes are ‘dramatically’ higher, you are not doing the same work as your pals. How butt hurt could one person be?….
I love your channel! TY and continued success!
❤ Yes inflation has been crazy since COVID. Thanks for sharing. We didn't know about the changes until this video. ❤
Is COVID Biden's middle name?
What it means to me is that government spending is totally out of control and this won't even begin to pay for it.
This goes right with over time being taxed. I’ve work with therefore I pay more… then they wonder why soooo many people don’t want to work .
Needs to be a law that over time does not get taxed
It's more like you earn more so you pay more.
They honestly don't care how much you work, just how much you earn.
That said, you are not getting taxed "more" if you are still within the same bracket. It is still the same percentage.
However, it is possible that HR might withhold more of your taxes for overtime.
They might not be able to predict ahead which tax bracket you will fall into and proactive withhold more taxes on your behalf.
This way at least you won't under pay in taxes and accumulate any penalties. If you end up paying extra, you will get them back after you file your taxes as tax return.
The government can't have you escaping the "wage slave" bracket...Get back to work.
Overtime isnt taxed at a higher rate, more taxes are just withheld. This is due to the amount of taxes being withdraw is an estimate based on how much you make in that period
The reason you get taxed more when you work overtime is that you are taxed per pay period as if that’s how much you make every pay period through out the year. So if you only work overtime occasionally when you file your taxes it will all average out and you will get the excess taxes you paid back.
Thank you sir. I highly appreciate your videos and clear explanations.
Thank you. That's useful information. A big surprise I found it on utube.
The personal income tax has to be eradicated. What an absolute scam and egregious privacy violation. Come on Joe - tell those IRS agent to learn to code.
You're telling Joe? He's loving this.
Wake up man. Dems have historically taken more from the people, they just lie more about doing it then say hey I've given you x instead. Your taxes will always increase with government over spending, wich is what Dems thrive on.
Ah yes, appealing to a guy who’s party campaigns on higher taxes.
I’m sure people actually believed they increased the total amount of IRS agents to go after “the 1%” though lmao
Almost positive others have probably mentioned this, but it's important to note that your entire income isn't taxed at one rate. So the person in the 90K example will have portions of their income taxed at 10%, 12%, 22%, and 24%. With the changing bracket thresholds, the 90K (AGI) earner is only seeing a tax relief on the few thousand dollars that use to be in the 24% bracket as opposed to believing that they are receiving a 2% tax relief on their entire 90K as they drop in to the 22% bracket.
That's not quite true. There is more money being taxed at each bracket. So a little more will be taxes at 10% instead of 12, and a little more at 12% instead of 22, etc.
@@stevefl7175 You're right, didn't mean to overlook that part. I had mentioned that to someone else as well but forgot to do so in this reply.
GREAT info, Karlton. Thank you.

Thank you for making this east to understand.
I am retired and have to pay taxes on the social security I collect. The funny thing is I paid taxes on it already during my earnings years. THANKS REAGAN
Yes Reagan signed it into law, but BOTH houses were Democrat majority with Speaker of the House Tip O'Neal, a Democrat so that was a not a purely Reagan action. The in '92 you can thank senator Joe Biden who voted to increase the taxable rate of social security and Democrat vice president Gore who was the tie breaking vote during Clinton era.
Yeah genius why didn't all his successors change it? Why not blame them? Or just do the right thing & blame the current president for this chaotic economy in which only corporates can bode well.
@@GokulOnFire - You are correct we had 12 years of bush rule and they did nothing to correct this double taxation.
@@paul9874 8 genius. You missed Clinton & Obama were presidents too. And why should Bush change a rule that's put forth by his party. Dems scaremonger about social security, force them to do it. But since they're frauds & you're fools nothing won't happen pal.
@@paul9874 Obama did nothing either AND he had BOTH houses his first term. Clinton had the senate and the house his first term. Both Clinton and Obama had the opportunity to change the law but they didn't.
I feel constantly abused by the government taxing me lol. Jeez man I owe 3k from last year and I was without a job for 4months and barely made 49k which were on a w2 and this year alone I’ve paid 15k from my salary and I barely made it to the 50s like wtf. I can’t even pay me rent next month…
it is an organized crime.
Try Dave Ramseys advice it's biblical and backed up by his finance degrees and 30 year experience. It's been helping me out..I owe $1700 from last year currently on payment plan.
theres gotta be something wrong with your witholding then, that shouldnt happen. If you only got 1 income source and its on a w-2 then if you filed on time I dont get how this happens.
Revoke consent by refusing to sign W4 and the feeling of being robbed of wages will stop. It's that easy. Taxes are voluntary.
@@fyrbyrd71 Yeah, don't sign the W2 and the employer is at risk of getting a $500 fine.... they won't take that risk.
They just won't hire you.
My taxable income increased 1200 from last year. Since I have already prepared my 22 taxes I now know my refund is 760.00 less than last year due to inflated tax rates.
Thank you. This was so clear. Finally!
We fought to become a nation because we unified to not pay taxes. Now look at us. Looking to pay taxes so that Uncle Sam doesn't come for us. Taxes should be capped at 10% max or get rid of it altogether.
Or at least a flat tax rate for everyone.
bring on the civil war or revolution. Oh wait Americans are slaves now and have a slave mindset.
We fought to not pay taxes without representation in gov't.
@@TakticalTekniq Facts
The Founders did not unify to not pay taxes. They unified because they didn't want to pay taxes to the English Crown. They wanted representation in Parliament, absent that they decided to revolt and hence, America was born.
Karl. But it isn’t the whole 100K being taxed @ 24% it is only the amount made after entering the bracket. I think that is also important to highlight. Or has that changed as well?
That’s what I was wondering, because that would actually be worse. Glad I signed up to prepare taxes this year, so I’m looking forward to learning if that changed.
correct. what he's explaining is MARGINAL tax rate. you will be taxed incrementally.
Everyone pays an effective tax rate. My marginal tax rate is 22%, while my effective tax rate is ~17%.
Very helpful! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for this information Karlton
When you add self-employment tax, as well as state, county, and city income taxes, what incentive is there to work?
That's why I stopped and became a homeless vagrant that gets to read my psychology books and sleep with escorts well I eat what ever the store sells as I walk with 3 empty bags and leave with them full and free.
If you want to understand that once educated individual stop caring and eating like a king you could too only if you are smart enough to pre plan to get away with it. But that takes book smarts and I'm here to hand them over free of charge!

@@yunoyukki7344 I suspect that the risk of the new generation "overworking" is quite minimal. Certainly not at fatal levels, anyway. 😉
I always find it frustrating to pay taxes to the government who really isn’t serving me as their employer normally you’d get fired for this it just doesn’t seem like I’m getting out what I’m putting into the system that I see is fair and worthwhile…
You never will they expect us to die from overworking. Not to mention what is the real reason wall street and government are frauds. I can't save money for how much taxes I have to payout. I hate this system of control
So you pave your own road and build your kids' schools and you build your own hospitals and hire your own police force and firemen and maintain your own children's playgrounds, etc., etc?
@@shirleysear7168 paving roads: place a bid out to private and gov. Construction paving companies And see who is willing to pave and do a 4 year maintenance contract on the section/area or road with roadside signs stating who is the company doing it…. Schools: someone else’s kid, why do I need to pay for their kid. They need to pay for their schooling, then maybe they would pay more attention to what money is being spent where and to whom. The government waisted so much money trying to find something on the ex president for years, never found anything.. waisted on sending money to other countries while our citizens doesn’t get services…. I’d gladly pay for better police and better training, along with fire departments. Also like to see both sides of stories when being reported rather then the rush to be first over facts…. Happy new year best wishes..
@@Dpixtion correct thank you for setting the record straight. Shirley got me messed up.
@@Dpixtion That is literally how government operates... to get bids on construction projects.
I'm frankly tired of wasteful spending but also tired of uneducated (not school wise, but uneducated about the actual topic) complaining without actually looking at facts.
You say crap like "better police and better training" but what does that even mean? Most people just complain without doing more research or participate more.
The complaint about kids is non sense. If you live in a more rural area then why should I pay for your street paving? Without kids who is going to pay for your social security? Or do you not know that SS is funded by next generation?
Thanks for teaching. I needed that.❤❤❤
Awesome summary - thank you!!
You don’t just fall into 1 tax bracket, you could be in all 7 depending on how much you make. And you example if you push 5k into the next bracket only that 5k is taxed at the rate not the entire amount. So everyone pays 10% on the first 11k and the from 11-44k of your earnings everyone pays 12% and so on… You don’t pay 12% on say 15k but only on 4k of that. People confuse this point all the time with like a sales tax rate that is the same no matter the amount.
What people typically describe as a tax bracket is a 'flat tax' which is not the case. The government doesn't know how much money you'll make in a given year. Everyone is taxed 10% the first $11,000 they make, even Bill Gates. He obviously makes it much faster than we all do.
he clearly explained it in the video.
Your numbers must be based on Adjusted Gross Income, as no one is paying anything on the first $11,000 of income based on the standard deduction. This would be clearer if stated as tax brackets for AGI’s. Thanks for the information.
Does everyone qualify for the standard deduction? Do you need to show any proof to get the standard deduction?
@@braetonwilson4296 Everyone qualifies, it is automatic in any tax software or in the tax forms. You either take the standard deduction or you can itemize allowed deductions and use that amount if it exceeds the standard amount. So the standard deduction is the lowest amount deducted to arrive at adjusted gross income--the AGI is the taxable income. Standard deductions for 2022//2023 tax years are:
Single (or married filing separately). $12,950 // $13,850
Head of Household. $19,400// $20,800
Married filing jointly. $25,900// $27,700
Age65*+ Single. $13,850// $15,700
Age65*+ Married. $25,900// $30,700
*or Blind of any age.
Assuming the standard deduction, for 2022 taxes (filed in 2023) you pay no Federal taxes if single on the first $12,950 of income, or $25,900 if married. The tax brackets kick in above these amounts. Example: single- you earn $20,000: deduct $12,950 = $7,050 AGI taxable income, in the 10% bracket your Federal tax is $705. Most states follow the Federal calculation.
You can easily estimate your likely taxes every year to figure out if you are over or under on your payroll withholding and adjust it with your employer. There are many tax calculator software programs you can buy very cheaply for uncomplicated returns (kiplinger, turbo-tax, etc). Pick one and use the same program every year.
Things are more complicated if you have children or other dependents as there are tax credits for them. Above is for salaried workers; if you own a business I would hire an accountant or bookkeeper. You may have other sources of income (pensions,investments, side gigs) and these are also taxable if your total income exceeds the standard deduction,
At 65 plus, special rules apply to social security and as a rule if you have zero non-social security income, none of the social security amount is taxable. If you have a pension or investment or job income, there is a calculation to determine if part of your social security income is taxable. Typically, if the non-social security income is below the Standard deduction, very little of social security will be taxable. This varies a lot and I always use online calculator at Smart Assets to estimate if any of social security is taxable.
Good luck to all!
@@maryrenaud6732 Thank you Mary! Very helpful!
Obviously it's adjusted since you don't pay on gross. Derp.
Do I get the Standard Deduction if I am claimed as a dependent on somebody else's 1040?
Nicely done. Thank you for sharing. Yes it is a phenomenon. Lo❤e it.
Very well explained! Thank you!
What this means for you:
The government has no interest in preventing complete economic collapse.
They will not tax the wealthy.
They will not stop -lowering wages- printing money.
You didn’t see the tax rate for folks making over $500k a year? Also, why do you think giving the government more money helps people?
@@jasoncrandall I did see that tax hike, it's pathetic.
Did you see the 24 tax brackets that pulled the USA out of The Great Depression?
The same tax brackets used during the largest economic boom in American history?
The same tax brackets that were used during the largest expansion of the middle class in American history?
We need those tax brackets. Adjusted for inflation of course.
@@DiarrheaBubbles raising taxes did not end the Great Depression. WW2 did. Massive production of war machines world wide. Smart people move away from high tax municipalities. Government workers are the dumbest humans.
@@jasoncrandall The great depression ended before WW2 started and we kept that same tax rate over the duration of WW2.
The tax policy that pulled us out of the depression created an economy capable of meeting the production needs of WW2.
Removing those tax policies initiated the upward transfer of wealth. The same upward transfer of wealth that continues to this day.
Super wealthy capitalist elite do not care about sustainable economic growth and they do not benefit from the expansion of the middle class. They are motivated by the rapid expansion of their own equity which is why virtually all domestic production has been moved over seas and why the American economy has been trapped in a downward spiral.
Americans lost agency over domestic production at the exact same time we lost the 91% marginal tax bracket.
@@jasoncrandall Also "Government workers are the dumbest humans." is a shallow and cliche argument. It's an irrational statement and a massive generalization.
You likely adopted that opinion up from anti-taxation propaganda.
yknow this helps but im still gonna be broke next year XD
Thanks for making this!
Start donating as much as possible!!!! I’m so sick of our money being taken to pay for &400 loo seats! Those deductions are bloody insane every year. Makes it harder of itemised deductions unless you’ve been hit by a huge lorry and your hospital bill is insane. The percentages are still far too high. The IRS is not helping anyone but themselves.
37% of your money gone to taxes and that's not even all of it oh man oh man offshore
The fact that I have to pay 32% in taxes is insane
People making 182K have been paying 32% in taxes since 2018.
@@jpfly66 Whats your point sped
Thanks for a great explanation!
Good information Karlton. Thank you...
as a middle income worker, I sent them over 20k last year. It's hard to stomach watching those who refuse to work or work part time, pay zero in taxes and even get large returns because of EIC and other bogus programs.
We need a video of exactly how to get away with not paying taxes lol specially knowing that the government just blows all the tax money carelessly.
So let's say everyone gets away with not paying any taxes, where is the money going to come from to pay for social security checks, food stamps, SSI, VA Hospital, VA Benefits, maintenance of highways, military, those who work in the various government offices at the Federal level and in DC in addition to the FBI, CIA, DHS, etc?
@@dianad3080 Lol that would never happen. But if you and I and his followers don't pay taxes. That money we all saved would benefit us and our families, way more then the government using it. You having an extra 50k each year, or you giving government 50k to send to a different country, or pay some politicians wallet. lol if they used tax money wisely, there should be not a single pot hole in any road in america….
Start a LLC you will pay less
National sales tax would pay for all that. Except the government would shrink with only the necessities.
Our taxes have always been out the roof. We have no deductions or not enough so we use the standard. We both have good jobs with no children filing jointly, we are maxed out on 401k contributions and still have to pay even more at the end of the year. Frustrating.
"If there is one common theme to the vast range of the world’s financial crises. It is that excessive debt accumulation, whether by the government, banks, corporations, or consumers, often poses greater systemic risks than it seems during a boom." -- Carmen Reinhart It's a good time to take a beat up 401k and do a Roth Conversion if your stocks are really beaten down. Then you'll only pay taxes on the much lower current prices, and your Roth will be tax free.
My main concern is now how can we generate more revenue during quantitative times? I can't afford to see my life savings of $400k crumble to dust.
I mean I guess if you have so much in 401k your income in retirement will be greater than $89,450… otherwise, why not just pay the 12% (if married)?

Taxing labor is supposed to be illegal what happened to it only to be to support the war effort of WWII?
Thanks for the information
No matter what, it's still way too much to have to pay. Especially if you live in a state that has high state taxes.
So, dont make more than 44k. Got it. Thats insane. At 44, 725$ you pay 5200 in taxes. At 44,726$ you pay 9700 in taxes.. Its now worth it to take a massive pay cut if you are making 45-50k a year.. you will actually make more money by making less money.
We have a progressive tax system, so any income between $44,725 and $95,375 is taxed at 22%... not financial advice :)
Please tell me you’re not serious 😂
At $44,726 you pay $5200 + 22% times $1. That means $5,200.22
22% bracket is applied to any extra amount above $44,725
That’s not how it works First you need to take your standard deduction around $13,000 then subtract that from $44,725 leaves you with $31,725 You then subtract that from $22,000 leaves you with $9,725 that is taxed at 12% or $1,167 plus your taxed at 10% for the first $22,000 or $2,200 which you add to the $1,167 leave you with a total tax of $3,367
