Just realized my freelance income hit $85k this year, which is more than my old office job ever paid.

That tax bill is why so many people feel like they can't get ahead.

That "real shocker" is just the start of feeling like you're always paying to stand still.

@logan271 hit the nail on the head there. I had the same shock when I hit around $60k my first year freelancing and suddenly owed thousands more than I expected. It's exciting to see the bigger number on paper, but you really have to set aside a chunk for taxes right from the start or it catches up with you fast.
