Are you "tax scrambling" or tax planning?

On today's episode of Great Points, Matt talks about doing your taxes. While the 2024 tax deadline was a few weeks ago, there are a handful of simple ways you can be better prepared for next year. Your tax preparer will thank you, but so will your future self for taking a few steps now to make tax season less stressful in the future. Furthermore, once you have your system down, there are numerous opportunities to engage in "tax planning" to minimize future taxes owed rather than just scrambling to get them done.
