I won’t be buying anything, considering my employment situation. Now, if we go back to work full time, that could change.

Hey, that national debt isn't going to pay for itself....
If my employer gets things going again, I'll be using a chunk of it to upgrade my work machine. I've been selling off old laptops and phones. Since I've always kept mine in good shape, they've tended to retain their value to some degree. In any case, though, with a few extra hundred, I could future-proof myself for a bit and hold Moore's Law off.
Got my eyes on a lightly used Razer Blade at the moment.

Yeah, it’ll definitely come back to “bite” us.

What do you plan to buy with your relief check, and in what caliber?
Has anyone named sleeper responded with “relief checks are for the poor”
posted by RotinajI believe they go by 18s return if you haven’t filed for 19 yet. 150k joint I think for income.
Great news, I haven't filed 2019 yet. I was just under $150,000 in 2018 (wife makes minimal part time), and I will be well over it for 2019 since I started the 2nd/weekend job.
It will be going right into the savings account and as soon as the coronavirus scare is over it will be paying for a trip to an all inclusive resort in the Carribbean for the whole family.
Alabama, where I live, has closed K-12 schools for the remainder of the year. Not a total surprise, but sad nonetheless. My daughter is not happy and I understand why.

Here in the Jackson the elementary teachers at 1 school did a parade route of sorts going by many of their kids homes. It was very well accepted.
Such a strange time

Very cool. That kind of thing means so much to the kids. Those sound like great teachers.
posted by Laley23Well that sucks. Won’t get the extra $500 for our son who is 11mo, because he wasn’t born when we filed ‘18, and ‘19 hasn’t been filed yet.
Of course, if they took 2019, we wouldn’t qualify for under $150k...so I guess maybe I won’t raise a big stink lol.
I’m just very reluctant to believe this 6-8K new cases a day number Dr. Acton threw out.

Don't get my wife started on Dr. Acton.
I read where you can take a coronavirus hardship distribution from your 401k.
Tucked into the measure are a series of changes that would relax rules on retirement savings, including a line item that would allow you to take a hardship distribution of up to $100,000 from your 401(k) plan without the 10% early withdrawal penalty if you’re under age 59½.

What's the wife get? She should get it all for having to be married to you, and all.

Elementary teachers for the most part love kids and truly miss them

I'm sure she's just tired and misspeaking again....just like there were supposed to be 100k cases by the end of last week.
I think the official tally from John Hopkins has Ohio with 868 confirmed cases.
