Im sorry, I know there have been many posts on the subject but Im a bit baffled. I usually receive about 1500 for stipend + bonus. Taxes were killing me so I sold my Lindenberg land to recover some money and lower my tax load. Taxes deceased to about 50 but my stipend shot down to 53? I thought 1000 a week was to be counted on. Being a gambling man, and not really selling much...stipends are basically my lifeblood at the moment. Any ideas on why this is?

you are guaranteed $1000 if you are under 3500. if you are over, the stipend just takes care of your stipend. so if you are under the 3500, and only getting 53, then this is an unexpected change...
