Only positive news on this thread! 

Postitive news for those with more than $500k in excess depreciation and more than $500k in non-real estate income. 

With the new coronavirus stimulus bill, you can write off an unlimited amount of that excess depreciation against ordinary income. You'll save millions in taxes!

Kids in our area have gone to doing beautiful chalk drawings on the sidewalks - each only in front of their own homes.  Some very talented kids sharing lots of messages of hope, love and staying strong. 🌺💐

My wife and I did something very selfish for ourselves.   We had to put our beautiful Lab to sleep last year.    We went and adopted two very sweet rescue dogs.    Both strays,   Both sleep with mommy.

Yes Drew Brees and his wife donated 5 Million bucks and Bill and Hillary Clinton donated 400 Pizzas to New York hospitals on the same day! Can anyone see some disconnect there?

Nope. The Clinton foundation spends $25+ million per year on various good works.

Please, if anyone wants to make snarky talk about politics - please go start another thread. 

Nothing personal, but let's stick to the topic this time. 😊

Very proud of our governor Gretchen Whitmer & her standing up for us, loving Andrew Cuomo-he's a superstar. His honesty is refreshing. Happy every time someone with barely 2 nickels to rub together donate time & talents.

Mostly happy the grocery store had a full case of dry cat food today! No ankle biting tonight!

Here in central Wisconsin, local medical students are taking on the jobs of child daycare for the hospital doctors and nurses.  👍

In my local news...

SALISBURY, Md. - Peninsula Regional Medical Center says it received a large donation of personal protective equipment. 

The Eastern Shore Dental Society and the Eastern Shore Mission of Mercy donated 10,000 masks, 20,000 gloves and 500 gowns. The Mission of Mercy says the items were either left over from last year's event that were not used or expired, or they were items that had already been purchased for an upcoming event in 2021.

"Given the situation we’re all facing with COVID-19 and staff and patient protection, they felt it was best to donate now and to restock for their event after we get through this," PRMC said in a post.

First, Ebay sales are up.

Second,  a young friend of mine who came to the US as a refugee from a border camp and who attended a summer school where I volunteered as a teacher just got accepted to Harvard.  Now that is a journey!

Oh, what beautiful babies!  I'd say you and your wife are the lucky ones, haha! 😁
