I have no idea how this will affect us because I sold an investment property at a huge loss. It's going to be hard for me to know if my refund is based on that loss or the tax changes. We always itemized and either got back or paid in around $500/year. This year I'm hoping to get back about $7,500 due to the business loss.
Edit - I've gathered everyone on CF is wealthy.
From a world or historical perspective, everybody on here is fantastically wealthy.
I would imagine a board dominated by college students, college-educated young adults, and middle-aged adults, nearly all of which will have/have a college education, at a school that hangs its hat on relatively lucrative majors in engineering, the sciences, agriculture, and business, and then, of course, your humble history major turned software salesman here...
This board is probably mostly upper-crust by the standards of the U.S. in 2019.
I have no doubt this place is mostly people with significant assets holdings (e.g., farmers), entrepreneurs, or your typical college-educated professionals. Those who are not are probably mostly college students who are working their way towards that.
