I won't be stimulized at all.

My bag of gold was too heavy, by about $700 on my AGI.

All I'm going to get is the bill.

I assumed it was the same as the others.  I never got any stimulus before.  I wasn't expecting anything this time.

2019 Adjusted Gross Income, unless you have already filed your taxes, then it's your 2020 AGI.

Hum... I need to look. I might get a very low level of stimulation...

Nope, according to H&R Block's calculator, my bag of gold was just a bit too heavy.

Had my AGI been $79,999, according to the calculator I would have received a life changing 28 CENTS of stimulus.  :rofl:

I've been trying to keep my agi at under $48K in retirement for tax purposes, so I'm under the $75K threshold (I'm assuming they are using agi), but when I go the IRS site, I get, "you don't qualify". I had already filed my 2020 taxes, so they would have up to date info for me. Perhaps there is also an "old white guy" exclusion in the new administration rules.  =)

Y'all need a wife that doesn't make much money.

Stimulus arrived today, I just spent $500 on a 2m/70cm mobile radio and antenna for my truck.

SWMBO and I were stimulated.  Money being spent on home improvements like painting and flooring.  Care to guess who gets to do all the work?

I was stimulized times 2 this morning! In fact, both the wife and I were stimulized!

I'm going to get that P365 this time, I swear by my pretty floral bonnet!

An unvaccinated illegal alien you're exploiting due to your white privilege?

Probably so.  My brother makes more than I do but it married, his wife does not work, and I am sure he still claims his daughter who is in college.  That helps him on the calculator.

I was out enjoying a leisurely walk when a local thug “cornpop Obiden” accosted me at gunpoint and demanded my watch, phone and my wallet with $55 cash.
He handed me back $14.00 of my own money with a big smile behind his 2 masks and told me how he was taking good care of me and the country.

I may get stimulated, I may not. I won't know for a while it seems. I moved, the IRS has lost me. The last stimulizers came as a debit card IIRC. I hope to get some of my money back so I can delete my truck, of course if I don't get stimulated I will still do the delete.

Some of these are pretty funny until you stop to think about them... " Perhaps there is also an 'old white guy' exclusion in the new administration rules.  =)"  Funny... not so funny, Ben.

I don't know, either.  No particular reason to stop at the bank, and mailed statement won't be for a week or two.

Anyhow, have a good St. Patty's day, all.  Any excuse for a celebration, eh?

Well, I gotta wonder.  I got the last two, and status showed up on the IRS site right away. Now with the first one of the new admin, nothing. 2020 income is about identical to 2019 income.

Absolutely.  I'm doing my part to sustain the narrative.

. . . Had my AGI been $79,999, according to the calculator I would have received a life changing 28 CENTS of stimulus.  :rofl:
But postage is 55 cents, so you would then owe 27 cents . . .

Postage is up to 55 cents? Jesus... I've been using forever stamps well... forever...

We will get the full amount cuz I iz retireded and wifey hasn't worked since I retired. My choice, well except the time she ran up an $8,000 credit card bill behind my back and she had to work to help pay it off.  The last one came in a check so I assume this one will too.  It will go to help pay the last $6,000 on our mortgage.

Interesting. Today I checked the IRS site for the hell of it, and got the message, "Your stimulus will be deposited in your account ending 'XXXX'. "

I thought, "What?!? I have never given the IRS bank account information for my taxes, and the previous payments came as a debit card and check."

All I can think of is that they pulled from my employment records and are putting it in the account where my pension goes. I guess it's not unexpected, but it's a little scary about the information merging across OPM and the IRS.

I really need to buy some crypto, start hiding cash in the mattress, and burying gold in the pasture. Way too easy for the fed.gov to wipe out my finances at the push of a button after some SJW reports me for using the racist term "peanut gallery" or "Hey, you guys!".

I just thought I'd point out you have the option of giving 10% (or 100%) of that government money to a local church that preaches things the government doesn't like.  =)

Or on guns, if you can find them.
