You're the Congress, call, call, call, call, call.

Hey, we're recording the podcast.

Shut up.

Good morning to you, wherever you are, because it is

Morning, September.

For April 14,, 20206.

My name is Bernie Burns.

Sitting right over there.

Oh my gosh, she's so excited for tax day tomorrow.

It's Ashley Burns.

Oh, I couldn't be more excited.

That's right.

15th of April, tax day in the U.S.

Is it tomorrow like the tax deadline in the U.S. Is it, like, the tax deadline in the U.S. tomorrow?

Yeah, I think so.

Once or twice, it's been like a few days off, like the 17th or something, and that always throws me. So I just assume the 15th. But I gotta say, Bernie. Not financial advice. That this, that this, this, this, this April 15th is like the U.S. tax day.

I mean, it kind of makes the like April 5th of the UK not seem to. No, no, it's a different thing, no, it's a different thing. The April, no, how dare you. April 5th is not when you're filing your taxes in the UK. But it's the tax year, not the tax deadline day. That's two different things. Right. But there's

a difference in the other direction as well in that for a lot of people in the UK, they don't have to

deal with their taxes at all, right? Their employer files their taxes. So they don't have to worry

about this date of the 5th. Whereas in the U.S., we all had to worry about the 15th of April. The U.K. is the only place I've ever heard of where when people negotiate their salary, they negotiate their net salary. Like their after-tax amount. And yet, it makes a lot of sense. It completely makes sense. Like, as an employee, I'm like, I want to know what I'm taking home.

Yeah, they're just like, what's your take home pay, right? And usually, though, that's a calculation you do in the U.S. because there's all these, like, factors that make things fluctuate and everything else. But yeah, this is the only place I've ever heard of. Maybe other places do it. It would make sense to do it, but it's also, it's like, there's somebody like, I don't even want to like, I don't even want to know about the tax part of it at all.
