Great video clip! Welcome to the world of work.
I'm always amazed too by people who feel their tax refund is some gift from the government, when in reality, it's simply their own money; an overpayment being returned after 12 months.

Seems like such a sweet kid and good dad. Such a (seemingly) genuine and all-around relatable situation.

B. But I got my SS #!

Which is why personal finance and/or a tax course should be a required part of the curriculum in schools. It should be common knowledge that the goal of the refund is to be as close to $0 as possible.
