The filthy rich, or I should say the moderately well off, don't receive a stimulus check. There is a phase out at a certain income. So anyone who receives a check can spend it freely knowing they are middle class all the way. Which is better than having no class. Hey hey hey!

Got mine too. I'm inclined to put it towards photography equipment - I need a tripod, want a Sigma 50-500mm. I ought to put it towards some home repairs/improvements.

Got mine on Monday. Right now it is sitting in the bank.
It should definitely go towards paying off the CC.
I really want it to go toward a new MacBook.
It will probably continue to sit in the bank since I am still not entirely used to this whole "self employed working on commissions that fluctuate from month to month" thing. Smile

yeah, you definitely need a cash buffer there to save you in an emergency.

I'm putting it into home improvements!

I'm looking for a Suzuki Mach III to offset those carbon credits some folks are buying.


Re: WOOHOO! I've been stimulated! - mikebw - 05-09-2008

I was considering getting a scooter for short trips. 75+ mpg sounds good to me.

I may be able to fill my '95 Chevy van up with one tank of gas with this check.

I think you meant Kawasaki Mach III, the classic fire-breathing two-stroke with perpetual smoke cloud and licorice-whip frame, standard equipment.
