What Bow and/or Equipment Will You Buy With Your Windfall?
 
I'm sure most of you know by now we are all getting.... $600.00 per person if you make less than $75k, $1,200.00 per married couple if you make less than $150k, tax refund ...... what Bowhunting equipment, or bow might you spend it on? :)

Since I just bought a new bow last month, guess it will have to be spent on a hunt instead.

Nice job! But beware, the diamond is the LEAST expensive of the whole experience. I've invested enough money in my wedding so far that I could've had a nice down payment on a piece of hunting ground, and I'm not even halway there yet! :D

My tax return, if I even get one, will most likely go partially towards my wedding and whatever I can stash away from the woman will go into my hunting slush fund. Daddy needs a new bow.

I would like to say its going towards a new bow/gun/toy of some kind. But the CEO of BBM Inc informed me that it would be spent on diapers, formula, and daycare. :D

sucker

edit - I love my wife also........ but remember, buying a diamond supports the DeBeers diamond cartel... thos people enslave people to get diamonds for them... as far as I'm concerned it is overinflated costume jewelry... save your cash and use it for a downpayment on a house or somethin that will increase in value... sorry, its the cynic in me...

RE: What Bow and/or Equipment Will You Buy With Your Windfall?
 
If I didn't make it clear ... this refund has NOTHING to do with your tax return ..... next year it will, as you will have to claim it, but it is a refund for everyone .....

nvshooter 01-24-2008 04:13 PM

RE: What Bow and/or Equipment Will You Buy With Your Windfall?
 
You also get an additional $300 if you have kids. 1500$ straight into the hunting fund!!! Man, I have a laundry list that I could buy :D

Washington Hunter 01-24-2008 06:50 PM

RE: What Bow and/or Equipment Will You Buy With Your Windfall?
 
I found the article about it at Yahoo! news, mauser.

You should be eligabile.

Anyone making less than $3,000 should recieve $300 rather than $600.

Individual taxpayers would get up to $600 in rebates, working couples $1,200 and those with children an additional $300 per child under the agreement. In a key concession to Democrats, 35 million families who make at least $3,000 but don't pay taxes would get $300 rebates.
Ok, so those who make at least $3,000 but don't pay taxes.

My bad.
