not really, most people that can afford to own them do, but with the current state of the US economy, stocks are on sale right now, its a good time to buy. Thats why i upped my 401k contribution to 12.5%
I do my own taxes. Everyone should be able to do them at least once.

its not that hard, go buy turbo tax for $25, then just fill in the blanks

It depends, I have worked with some people that do nothing but track their stocks and are always looking for the next tip. They would have a weekly stock tip they would email out to the entire company.
I do my own taxes, I know all the tips and tricks. The benefits of the IRS training me for 6 months to work for 8 months and then lay me off due to budget cuts. I got GREAT tax training out of that.
There is no accountant out there that can legally get me more tax money back than I can get myself.

Wasn't there a movie about that?

I worked for Walmart for a few months when I was in college, you are forced to buy stocks, that is the only stock I have... even though I don't work there anymore. I contribute to RRSP and Mutual Funds.

I fill out the forms and do the math by hand. It's still not that hard and I always get a refund.

Exactly, if you don't have some funky investments or other weirdness, taxes aren't that hard to do.

I usually do my own taxes. I might have someone do mine this year... I actually have stuff to claim for a change.
