These Accountants Hate Doing Their Own Taxes

On a housekeeping note, I wanted to let everyone know that I never deliberately include articles that require you to log in to read them in “Retirement News from Around the Web.” But sometimes, it happens. Maybe a web site has changed its policy and I’m not aware of it, or maybe I don’t realize I’m automatically logged into a site, which is why I can see an article but you can’t. Feel free to let me know when that happens, as some of you already do.

And I’m always looking for volunteers for Reader of the Week, so if you’re interested in participating, or want to learn more, please let me know!
