Why you’ll never have to pay taxes again

It’s tax day in the US, which means that most of my clients are busy dotting i’s and crossing t’s and fingers.

But here’s the good news for everyone: If the Mayans are correct (and why wouldn’t an extinct, pre-industrial civilization that brutally sacrificed thousands of innocent people be correct?), the world will end on December 21st, 2012. That means you only need to do 2010′s taxes in 2011 and 2011′s taxes in 2012.

And then that’s it. You don’t have to worry about it any more!

Granted, the money you would have spent on your 2011 taxes will be used to buy guns, beef jerky, and sheet metal to convert your Ford Taurus into a Mad-Max-style post-apocalyptic fighting machine.

But you won’t have to file taxes anymore, so there’s an upside to everything.
