nope, i bought a house too. getting the first-time home buyer credit as well. you do know you have to pay it back over 15 years right? it is interest free, so there's not any reason not to take it, and they take it out of your taxes, so you never have to make a "payment." Just in case you didn't know though, they aren't just handing you money.

as for what i'm doing with mine... motorcycle? 370z down payment?

more like putting it towards my student loan. being responsible sucks.
