Ex: "Assuming you didn't wait until the very last minute to file your taxes, you should probably expect to receive your refund sometime this month if you haven't gotten it already. According to USA Today, for those of you fortunate enough to have a real job, the average tax refund from 2009 was $3,036. Three grand is a substantial amount of money, and since it's free (note: it's not really free) you should use it as superfluously as possible.
Ignore the naysayers who say you should put it towards your kid's college fund or put it in a CD at your bank. They don't know anything.
With all that money burning a hole in your pocket, it's time to be financially irresponsible. So why not spend some (or all) of it on the following, top tier video game titles being released in May?"
Haha, I sure as hell didn't get back 3 grand this year. Funny article though. Def gonna buy several of these games.
Three thousand bucks might be a bit of a stretch for most gamers (as far as tax refunds go), but it turns out the stat is actually correct:

Crazieness.
That said, I'm getting back like 1500 so I'm going to get all of those games except for SKATE.
I assume at least 60% of the people on here are not even old enough to know what a tax refund is. They just think money comes from daddy's pockets or mommy's hand, which just comes out from being in daddy's pocket.
I don't get my refund before June. I get 2.6k back :> and I will put them in the bank...or will I now?
