Due to social and travel restrictions our monthly expenses have dropped by 1/3 . YA i hate what's going on but Others need this stimulus far more than retirees here in the bubble
That's pretty much the point. If you don't NEED it - then SPEND it. That's why you have it. So you can spend it. Spending it means someone is getting paid, by you, for whatever. It's getting people working. It's providing someone with a much-needed paycheck. Spend it on something you have been putting off because of the pandemic. Get your nails done. Pick up some curb-side dinner at a restaurant that you haven't been to in awhile. Hire a guy to pressure-wash your house.

If you do need it - use it!

Just don't bank it. Banking it defeats the purpose of having it in the first place.
