          As always, the tradeoff that money buys, as in almost every case, is time.

          Once you do it the first time though it’s pretty easy to do it the next time.

      Kind of, there are free services and the IRS is working on their free filing website/software. However, the easiest product to use TurboTax is focused on upselling. I believe it’s free for basic taxes but the minute you need to add something like contractor income it’s $120.
