I bought my first house last year, so I get to learn all about the interest deductions, otherwise I think my return is going to be pretty boring which is just fine by me. The last few years I've had all sorts of funky stuff with job changes and moving and state taxes. Glad to be back in TX where there isn't any state income tax!

I picked my stocks, and when I tied it over to a checking account with Schwab, I became eligible for some good benefits with my debit card. One benefit was free atm withdrawals from anywhere in the US, no matter which ATM I used. What the bank does is reimburse me monthly for any atm fees paid, and they do it automatically which is a huge advantage over Compass Bank's send in receipts for reimbursement approach.

I was going to wait to get a better start in 2010, but then figured I rather get a little kick in 2009 instead. Every little bit helps.

I am using this year and the tips to focus me on being organized this year, from the start, and actually trying to do some planning. The comments on the Million Dollar Journey post had some good tips for me on that.

I did a lot of renovations this past year, and I have not heard of this (or at least I do not remember it). I would like to take advantage of this if I can! Do you have an article on the HRTC?
