I am so confused.
I'm doing my taxes right now and after entering my two W2's, so far I owe $5.4k+.
How is this possible? I did the math and I paid about 24% in taxes over the year which is what my bracket should be. I don't understand why I still owe a boat load after this.
Apologies in advance if I sound stupid but this doesn't make sense to me. should I be paying more in California? I don't get it.
