Default Hey Dien -- here's a crazy parcel idea I had -- especially for tax time!...

IRS says taxes are due on April 15th, right?
Has to be POSTMARKED on April 15th, right?

Now, if someone owed A LOT of taxes (lots of people do!), I mean thousands or hundreds of thousand$$$$$$, there could be a service that would send the return and check to the IRS... IN A BOX, sent by EXTREMELY SLOW MAIL (parcel post), FROM HAWAII -- still POSTMARKED 4/15, as required -- but the person using the service would get the BENEFIT of the check arriving at the IRS much LATER than normally, thus playing the "float" of having the $$$$ in one's bank that much longer. On a check for $200,000, a few days difference, could be a big difference.

Anyhow, I thought I'd share.

Cheers.
