Yesterday , I decided to go out and spend my federal incentive check . What I really wanted was a new television , but I quickly discovered that any I liked were out of my price range by at least $ 100 . I decided instead to go the less fun , more practical route and I bought myself a combined printer / scanner / copier . The advantage of this -- beyond the obvious future advantages when it comes to school -- is that it works directly with my laptop , unlike my other scanner .
According to the above context, answer the following question.
How does the narrator get their income ?


Through welfare .
