Any big plans?...other than spending it at the pump.

I'm diffentley buying a bbq Weber kettle. And maybe a fishing license. Some on the wife and kids, and the rest in the bank. Oh and if needed a few bucks will go towards the sniper defense fund.

Buy a tank of gas and then go pick an item from the dollar menu at McD's.

Mine is all being set aside as fishing cash. Fuel, tackle, etc.

I'm getting a Play Station 3 and a clapper (clap on) with mine, and put America back to work.

I have to pay off the rest of a Condo rental in Maui. I was going to use the rest to fuel the old Roth IRA, but the way the VISA stock has been going, I will just probably buy more of that.

I feel like I'm too young to be liquid so I always put it somewhere. I still have school loans but the interest rates are low enough I feel that I can safely invest it somewhere.

Got a bunch of dirt work done around the house, now I can have a decent yard this summer. Then I booked a springer trip with a guide (never done that before), and oh yeah....

I gave into the wife and let her buy the 47" LCD.

Even though I blew some of it, having a yard will pay dividends in the long run so that's how I justify myself.

I'm going to support the development of second & third world nations like China and India by blowing the entire thing on lead tainted crap from Wal-Mart.
With what's left over Ill buy a Extra Value Meal at McDonalds to make sure I get my annual sodium & sugar intake done in one meal.

I'm still young and financially secure. I'm going to invest the $1800 and enjoy the rewards when I retire in 25 years.

Screw the "Boost to the economy" idea. Y'all can do that for me.

Me smart.

Bob was over today and he did make some convincing arguments for a 70' LCD....

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8400624&type=product&id=1179877503499

I think I'd need at least 20 more checks.

It's true but don't worry. Your tax dollars will go to help some needy person who didn't pay into the system in the first place. You should feel good about that.

Robinhood is just doing his job.

Is it true that these rebate checks are going to be taxed as income in '08?

If you're single and had an Adjusted Gross Income of more than $75,000 or married with more than $150,000... you won't get screwed completely... you'll get a calculated percentage less than the maximum amounts of $600 for single, $1,200 married. I think you get the $300 per child claimed as a dependant on your 1040 no matter what though?

You can go to www.irs.gov to get your questions answered.

I'm pretty sure NO.

Say, i thought those tax cuts in 2001 and 2003 where supposed to be the cure all for the economy. When is that going to trickle down? So now we need "stimulus" that is borrowed money that will get vacuumed up by the oil company's. What a scam !!!
