There’s nothing like getting your very first paycheck. What an accomplishment that is, and I love this kid so much, he’s so excited and proud of himself – as he should be.
However, it’s an eyeopener when you realize – some for the very first time – that Uncle Sam gets a cut of everything you make.
That’s what happened to this sweet boy who opened his very first paycheck and was shocked that he didn’t get to keep everything he earned.
“What do I have to pay Social security, I already have the number?”
Love it.
At one point the poor kid is so disgusted by the taxes that he actually gets out of the car to get some “air.”
Ha ha ha!
And I love his family (and friends?) in the car who are teaching him about taxes, they’re enjoying poking fun at him, but are also giving him solid knowledge and good advice.

You know, when you’re that young, losing $20 bucks is like losing 20 million. I feel this kid’s pain.
I hope he realizes that if he votes Democrat those taxes will just keep getting higher and higher.
Someone should tell him how much money he’ll lose if there’s ever (God forbid) a “Green New Deal.”
