Ok. I got a job a little less than a month ago and I dont really understand the whole tax thing. It seems like on my paycheck that they took out almost half in taxes...

When I was filling out my W2 (i think thats it...it was some kind of tax form) I "claimed" 0...should I have claimed 1, myself?- Would this make a difference?
Also, does that ^ have anything to do with my paychecks or just the yearly taxes you do.
Could someone please explain this to me.

And please only answer this if you know what im talking about...i know its a teen advice site, but some people here should be able to help me...

Thanks!

umm thats what taxes do they take out 30% of your wages i think its around 30 % its like when people when the lotto of like 10000 they only really get like 7000 get it
hope i helped
