Dear Taxman,

Mea Culpa, you are correct,

but as a practical matter most of my clients do not pay estimates based on a running tally of current gains & losses but on last years tax * 1.10/4, adjusting if possible with tax loss selling in November/December.

Thanks though for your thoughts,

Abbigail

Taxman,
RE:"sorry, but estimated installment payments are required"

Since when are estimated installment payments "required"?
You can always pay the government interest...
