I am self-employed and it looks like I will end up making around $8,000 by the end of the year. I added up my expenses and that was around $6,000. Since my office is around 20% of my home I took 20% of the $6,000 which is $1200. Using the tax estimator on HR Block it said I would owe around $1,000 without putting any expenses into it, with the expenses added it still says I would owe around $937. How can this be correct when I have $1,200 in expenses? Please help.

Thanks!

Also, would you all approve of this? If you don't approve, then why not?

approved for the loan with no problems. Does that meant that I have good or at least decent credit?( the car I got was 2006 kia Rio and I pay $280 a month if any of that matters)Now I plan on trading my car in at the begining of the year and I do have more forms of credit and have been pretty good about paying my bills and car loan on time so could my credit have possibly gotten better? and would I have a better chance getting a car that was a little more expensive? I know that nobody on here can give me a definite answer without knowing my credit history but I was just wondering if anybody new a little about credit and could tell me something.

What is the process after that.

2. How much does the lawyer take in for coming with me?

3. Can i Collect the money without being all over the press?

4. How long does it take for the check to arrive to me?

5. When going to the bank can I just show up and deposit a 12million dollar check??

6. This is the most important question of all? Since I wont tell anyone about my winnings, BUT how do you tell your parents and sister? Or should I just NOT tell them, and help them little by little??? I know is tuff not telling them, But I will be afraid they could be in danger because they might tell someone and someone could hurt them or something???

I will also take more ADVICE if you have some...
Thank you so much
