There are 1000's of couples living in The Villages with a paid-off house, no debt, tons of money in the bank, free paid medical insurance and as long as their gross adjusted yearly income is under $150,000, the couple will receive $2,800 in free US tax dollars. This is on top of the two prior stimulus checks they have received in the past six months.
I honestly believe those folks who need the money should be helped, but this stimulus money was not meant for people who didn't need it and for those people living in The Villages that meet this criteria and don't need the stimulus money are just scamming the rest of us.

The stimulus is just that, to stimulate the economy and the vast majority of folks who will receive it will truly need it. As for those who do not need the money, they have a couple of choices. They can always return it, or better yet, donate it to a worthy charity. A charity will certainly be able to spend the money and stimulate the economy.
