    It's an annual tax, but typically is less and less as the vehicle's value declines each year.

    Oooh! I was thinking of something else then. We tried to be sneaky and bought the car in Lake County but got a bill from Cook County saying we owed them taxes. Bastards.

    That's a ridiculous tax there in Massachusetts!!!

    It's one of many, many ridiculous taxes here in the Bay State. Or, I should say, the Pay State.

    (Did you see what I did there?)

    Other than that, it's all marshmallows, rainbows and festive sing-a-longs up here in the northeast corner of the country.

    I just got off the phone with a client who wanted me to add someone to his guestlist at his housing program. The client puts me on the phone with a woman so I can get the correct spelling of her name. He thought he had hung up, but didn't, so I go to hear the negotiation. I like her style. She doesn't haggle. She's making him pay. He is going to be very disappointed when he finds out it takes 24 hours to update his guestlist. ...Check days are always entertaining in my world.


    negotiation as in......you know... :lol::lol:

    yup. it was one of the better conversations I've overheard. :lol:

    Does anyone live within city limits? I think the City of Chicago charges an excise tax on LEASED vehicles of 6% per month...so, not only do you get to pay sales tax when you lease a vehicle, you also get to pay them an amount equal to 6% of your monthly car payment as a "use tax".

    Im pretty sure thats how it works...my ex leased a car while living with me in suburban cook county then when he moved out and registered his car at his new address in Chicago, all of a sudden his monthly car payment went up and he was totally confused...(ha ha ha ha :P)
    Makes much more sense...

    Hmm not sure about that, never leased a car before...although it wouldn't surprise me. Living in the city limits has just gotten ridiculous, I've saved so much money since I've moved out of there!

    hahahaha Well, I have always wanted to be a talk show host. I think I put that in the what did you want to be when you grow up thread. ... I love this idea. Although Dora freaks me out a bit and peyote would only make her more freaky. Which would make for great TV. I hope we could invite Chad's crazy old millionaire neighbor to join us. i like that guy. I'm in.

    Norm- make this Mark Burnett shit happen!!
