Imagine if you invested that money in ExxonMobil throughout the year it would be closer to $12k. That's why you want to avoid big refunds because you miss out on potential gains.

Don’t pick the 1 sector of investments that did the best last year and say “you’ll make 50% returns every year forever, you dummy.” Cause it won’t happen. Track the S&P for steady returns and even with that, you would be down like 13% for 2022.
