......................

back in the day I used to do my taxes on the kitchen table by hand with the IRS booklet and their confusing forms

before software and computers capital gains taxes were higher

it was very complicated to figure out capital gains obligations accurately with their instructions on their forms - at least for me back then

I gave up - I just winged it for many years - I basically took a guess on the very, very low end

I'm about 100% sure I was wrong on the low end and they never came back at me about it

maybe they couldn't figure it out either................(~:\
