Here's a calculator to see if you get a check.At the end of the day, I'm very thankful I still have a job. Still not sure if I'm getting a stimulus.
I appreciate the link. Looks as if I will be getting a stimulus check, but barely since the ex wife claims our youngest who is 17. Now I have to change my vote.Here's a calculator to see if you get a check.

This WaPo link was posted previously in another thread a week or so ago. My income is sufficiently high enough that I won't get the full amount, but looks like I'll get about 95% of the max.
I have mixed emotions. If the government is giving me "free" cash, it's kinda hard to take a principled stand and turn it down. OTOH, future generations will be paying that much more interest on all those T-bills we auction off to Saudi and the ChiComs.
It's not really a refund since the money we've paid in has already been spent. This is all borrowed money. I have a hard time understanding why retirees get a check. How have you been negatively affected?I'll get one, since I'm retired and on a fixed income. Why would anyone be "ashamed" to get what is effectively a small refund of what they've paid in taxes over the years? Isn't it really their money at the end of the day?
Yep. Nothing is free. Someone has to pay for it.This WaPo link was posted previously in another thread a week or so ago. My income is sufficiently high enough that I won't get the full amount, but looks like I'll get about 95% of the max.

I make less than $75K. I'm affected because I had to take a leave of absence at my part time job, and it filled the gap between my income and the withdrawal I must take when I turn 72in a couple of years.It's not really a refund since the money we've paid in has already been spent.

OK. You can keep it.I make less than $75K. I'm affected because I had to take a leave of absence at my part time job, and it filled the gap between my income and the withdrawal I must take when I turn 72in a couple of years.
But I file taxes just like you. So...you bet I'll take my...rebate. Better?

Do you realize that if you reply to my post that you don’t have to tag me? It’s redundant.@BSC911
yet you vote for Lamumba, Madam Chiang and Biden people who punish producers and redistribute earned wealth?
odd.

I don’t recognize any of those that you mentioned other than Biden. Yes, I will vote for him. While not the most exciting, at least he doesn’t lie through his teeth every time he speaks.
Just checking the demographics of this board. Feel free to reply to this thread with your personal situation. Myself, I will not. I make too much money.

But at least you get to brag about how smart you are in every post. So you’ve got that going for you.I should get a direct deposit. I'm probably the poorest guy here. I have 10 cents more than I need. I don't live paycheck to paycheck.
A cancer diagnosis in April, 2003 ended my 12 year career as a "professional tourist." I was off 4 years in recovery. Investments provided me with a tidy income.
You don't owe @BSC911 squat. 3 Trillion stimuli but everyone here is a millionaire? Too funny.I make less than $75K. I'm affected because I had to take a leave of absence at my part time job, and it filled the gap between my income and the withdrawal I must take when I turn 72in a couple of years.

He sure did. As the US does all the time. Just not unilaterally by the wannabe dictator and election fixer.
Capitalism results in the haves and the have nots. Don’t hate the player, hate the game.
The elitist mindset that is mostly in the Dim party but claim to have Middle America's best interest at heart.
If you think the elitist Pubs have your best interests in mind then you are more naive than I gave you credit for.The elitist mindset that is mostly in the Dim party but claim to have Middle America's best interest at heart.
Of course, there are elitists on both sides but Hollywood libs seem to be voicing their hatred for conservative Americans at every opportunity. When has Nancy ever said anything nice about Middle America?If you think the elitist Pubs have your best interests in mind then you are more naive than I gave you credit for.
Just like our resident snob here who drinks an overpriced and overrated Blantons.The elitist mindset that is mostly in the Dim party but claim to have Middle America's best interest at heart.
I drink George Dickel White Label and an occasional lager beer. I sure don't need any of it if it cost as much as my light bill.Just like our resident snob here who drinks an overpriced and overrated Blantons.

Don't get me wrong, it's bad ass bourbon. Just not going to buy at the liquor store every week. I only buy it during the holidays ever since my oldest drinks the rest of the bottle when he comes over for a visit.Hey now, don’t be dissing good bourbon.... may be overpriced , not overrated
I do prefer others like Willet/Basil Hayden/Four Roses SB..... but Blantons is damn good too
I have all of those in my bar. I like to switch it up but always go back to Blantons, long before it became trendy.Hey now, don’t be dissing good bourbon.... may be overpriced , not overrated

He (Joe) sure did. As the US does all the time. Just not unilaterally by the wannabe dictator and election fixer.
