I haven't see "The Wolf of Wall Street" but I can imagine, lol...probably similar to my reaction when telemarketers call me.
My policy is to ignore any calls that aren't saved to my contacts list. I save companies I've ordered from just in case something comes up or when I'm expecting a call, but other than that if it isn't important enough to leave a message for explaining why it is an unknown number, I don't care. And if a telemarketer leaves a message, I block the number.
I have seen a trend lately where telemarketers match your middle 3 digits of your phone number to trick you into thinking it is a number you know and somehow don't have in your contacts. I block these outright.

I'll keep that in mind, if & when I ever "need" a cell phone. (I've used a Trac Fone in the past, when traveling cross country...but after that, meh...)
And yes, I see the same telemarketer tricks on my landline...the scams are getting outrageous but my swearing has improved.

My husband is an accountant (he's a controller at a medium-sized local company) and does our taxes on the paper forms (old school lol). We didn't end up owing anything this year and did see a small increase in take home pay.
If you ended up owing, and work for a company that does the withholding for you, you should speak to your HR/controller and see if they can modify your withholding to match what it should be.
Ideally, you don't want to owe, but you also don't' want to get a refund back either.. big refunds mean that the government just got an interest-free loan of your money for several months.
Currently keeping:
1.0 BCA 1.0 BCI
1.0 CA BCI 1.1 BCLs
0.1 BRB 1.2 KSBs
1.0 Carpet 0.5 BPs
0.2 cresteds 1.2 gargs
1.0 Leachie 0.0.1 BTS
