Pennies From Heaven Posted on October 3, 2024 at 11:57:10 PM by Cold Truth
Every time I see a teacher on TV telling me to vote for Amendment Two to subsidize Missouri schools, it drives me crazy. She talks like that money is “pennies from heaven,” as if nobody is losing that money.
I was a tax preparer for twenty years. A woman I prepared taxes for spent fifteen years burning up her paychecks and retirement savings, losing a total of $500,000 to the casinos.
Think it won’t happen to you? No drunk or druggie ever thought he’d end up sleeping under a bridge along the Missouri River. And, my tax client never thought she’d burn up a half-million dollars of her paychecks and retirement money to the casinos.
