The standard newspaper definition of a recession is a decline in the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for two or more consecutive quarters....still waiting on the first month of a GDP going negative.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20494711 Fri, 16 May 2008 17:52:27 EDT Re: Spending the Tax Rebate Check http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20462428 brownrd : Mine is going directly towards the balance of my home equity line.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20462428 Sat, 10 May 2008 17:39:47 EDT Re: Spending the Tax Rebate Check http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20440002 KoolMoe : Got our notice yesterday that it was going to be direct-deposited into the same account our taxes noted...at some point in the near future.

Ours is going in the bank. I'd prefer it to go into the kids' - woefully underfunded - college fund...but will likely get spent on the next automotive or appliance repair bill that is surely lurking around the corner...

I don't exactly know if I'll get one because the IRS may claim it. Long boring story about the wife, the houses, the missing tax papers and such - later.

I can't wait for that check though. Maybe I'll give it to Sears for a gift card worth 10% more than the check. Then maybe Sears will stop charging 28% interest on balances - maybe not.

Maybe just give it to the wife as a kind gesture! Maybe not.
Maybe fill up the SUV and take a trip around the Beltway. Maybe not.
I think it may be best spent to play a few rounds at various golf courses I have not played before - I'll take a cart please!

Any ideas on how to spend this windfall??]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20402051 Mon, 28 Apr 2008 19:59:27 EDT
