Gimp Stimulus package
 

I know this might belong in the social security forum, but I never go there so here it is.

Seems "most" people who receive social security disability will receive an additional check in May for $250.00.

How about that, we get our own little gimp stimulus package. Not sure how I will spend my wealth but I like it.

Could be good for a touchy subject in my hot, little hands! ;)

I know where mine, whoops, I mean Jim's :o is going!!!!!

Do you have to pay taxes on it at the end of the year?

No. So they say. :p

Since it's also being sent to retired folks and the elderly, who don't have to pay taxes period, than I don't think anyone would have to pay..
By the way, Sandy, may I say you have the Best Avatar Ever?:winky:

Cool Beans, Earl...I didn't know that. :)

Kind of off the subject a bit but amybe not. I remember back when I was working. When you finalyy reached 25 years you got a gift and cash. For 25 years you got $250, 30 years you got $300, you get the opicture. My husband and I both work at the same place and started the same day. That's how me met. So we both got that nice check. He is a very practical guy. If you get an extra amount of money, you just pout it in the bank and it goes to bills. But I said my $250 was MINE! If I wanted to get a round trip flight to Chicago, get off the plane walk around the airport and get back on and fly home then that's what I would do with mine. I did buy an excersize bike so I could hang my clothes on it and some other things. Unfortunatley I quit a few months shy of my 30 year anniversary. He put his $300 in the bank. Boring. He has no imagination. But this $250 again will be mine. I think I am going to put it toward having a nice wooden play set put up in our backyard for when the grandkids come.

Here in australia every taxpayer who earned under 100k last year got/gets a $900 tax free 'stimulus' payout (to put back into our dodgy economy). I got mine today. spent it already though... :)
