Buy some low priced stock. This is tempting. Put it in a S & P 500 Index fund. Either loose it or double it. Kind of like betting on black - but the wall street casino is still open.

you have make less than 75000 a year. you'll be paying it back next tax return. Seems like the Bush stimulus amounted to an advancement on next years tax return. Would expect the same this time.

I have always wanted a genuine, honest to goodness.....SwingAway can opener.
You cant beat em.
We shall see if the budget allows. A new Bunn coffee maker would be nice. Our Mr.Coffee is near dead. Not sure if we are responsible enough for a Bunn though. We had a Bunn a few years back. It puked in about the same time as a Mr Coffee. We are back to the Mr Coffee. Sluice it with vinegar every month or so to clear the scale, replace when it pukes. We usually brew two pots per day. The critical component is the coffee anyway, not the brewer. We like the SF Bay French Roast beans from Costco. Fresh grind and brew. Damn good cup of coffee. Bunn has a 5 year warranty. Got one as a wedding present. It started leaking right at 5 years. Called them up. Gave a date code on bottom of pot, they sent a new one a few days later. Replacement is about 5 years old. Makes a pot or three a day.

The Bunn is nice because it is so fast it seems.
Cant complain about the Mr. Coffee I guess. Its been going for near 12 years.
Champagne tastes and all that.....

Our Bunn puked in the electronics somewhere. Didn't pursue replacement, just said "f u ck this piece o' sh it" and went and grabbed a $29 Mr Coffee at Walmart, and got on with life.

Based on our income with two kids, we should get approx. $2200...If that actually happens - going to have Me, my wife, and kids to each spend $100 at a local restaurant/small business and put the rest in the safe for the next worlds ending event.

Centershot: MORE GUNS!
I even plan on spending the VarmintWifes stipend.
He-he.
Life is good.
I am happy.
I wonder if this is what the common ghetto dwelling welfare bitch feels like just before her welfare check is gonna come in?
Maybe I'll just become a common gimmee, gimmee, gimmee government dependent type?
Been "payin in" for 60+ years now maybe its my turn to leech for a while?
Naw.... I got to much pride.

I’d take $700 against the WiFi service and laptop I need to buy to teach online through this crisis. The other $500? Maybe a.22 revolver, stimulating the economy and all that.

Oil down to $25 a barrel yet?
Maybe I use my $1200 if I get it, to buy me some barrels of oil.
I figure if I toss in a few of my bucks I can get like 50 barrels. Sell it when it gets back up around $40. Going to take production a bit to ramp up and all, yet demand will jump as soon as the All Clear is given and folks can get out of their houses to go to the CiCi's and Golden Corrals for a sit down dinner. I figure it hits $40, what, like about 2 weeks after the all clear?
50 x $15 = a cool $750 profit and I can give back the $1200 if the gooberment wants it in taxes.
