I didn't rely on tax subsidies. I just paid some guy who guaranteed my kid would get into an elite university with on a sport scholarship, even though his academic and athletic abilities are crap. But it's a secret. Don't tell anyone.

- The first year of her graduate studies, she only received the NSF stipend from AUG - DEC, so her tax bill was under the $1000 threshold that triggers possible penalties. No problem.
- The second year, she had 12 months of NSF stipend and owed more than $1000. Big problem. She had to send a letter to the IRS explaining that the NSF didn't withhold any money and she didn't know that she should make quarterly tax payments. So far, she hasn't received a penalty.
- This year, the head of her lab needed to spend grant money, so she deferred her NSF stipend and received a department stipend (with withholding). No problem.

Same problem here, my daughter is on an AFROTC scholarship. The tuition part is tax free, but room and board is considered income so she (meaning me) owed taxes on that. Came as an unwelcome surprise, penalties and all. This year I made quarterly pre-payments, so at least there were not any penalties to be paid.“Of all sad words of tongue or pen,

i went to rei today and spent $28 on a couple pairs of socks and used my $5 dividend. this means i'll get another dividend next year.
which means a year from now i'll be back to buy more socks so as to use my dividend.
and so on...
if i remember programing class correctly, i think i'm in an infinite loop.2,000 miler -

I've always left the dividend for Kathy to use, after all our membership is in her name.

Well for some reason I can't produce a photo, but by some strange coincidence the carrying bag for my new Tubbs Sno shoes costs my dividend!
It is mine.
I'm really digging this sno shoe thing.

About $30. Hmmm two pairs of socks or $30 off on another pair of hiking shoes. I'll probably go for the shoes and hide them in the garage for a while so when the wife sees them, I can honestly say "What? I've had these for a while""Dazed and Confused"

$10.84 -- first time in double digits since 2017.
Since we have to use it on full price items this year -- maybe another pair of patagonia hiking shorts without waiting for a sale.
Or apply it to a pair of socks like every other year.2,000 miler -
I didn't receive mine yet but logged in to see.
$4.15 in Rewards
$171.44 in REI Mastercard Rewards
$173.33 leftover from 2020
