$1,884. That's the amount of this year's Permanent Fund dividend as announced by Gov. Sean Parnell in downtown Anchorage Wednesday morning.
"I'm frankly grateful for the Permanent Fund dividend at whatever amount, and I know Alaskans are too, as they save it or spend it for their own needs," Parnell said.
The governor made the announcement in a small conference room at the Atwood building in front of a crowd of dozens of media and about a hundred state employees.
The 2014 dividend will be the third-largest check issued since the yearly distributions to Alaska residents began in 1982. The Alaska Permanent Fund Dividend Division said checks and direct deposits will go out on Oct. 2.
$1,884?!? OMG. Last year the PFD was only $900! That is AWESOME. I'll feel rich haha
