Thanks, Hal_Al. That's much closer to what I was looking for. Even with my SS and employer withholding in place, to satisfy the 14K taxes due for 2016, I had to write a personal check for $12,411 and that hurt a whole lot. Turbotax 2016 did prepare estimate coupons for 2017, but that year is likely to be a "quiet" one with only SS, bank interest, and employer's 12K. Thinking of doing the old-folks' standard deduction for 2017, then for 2018 or probably later taking the RMDs and doing quarterly payments. I don't need to start the RMDs until 2021. Thanks, really, for coming back to comments to follow up. Really appreciate it. 😉
