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.

Many should try living on $1000 per month, even though the house is paid for. Everything costs us just the same as the "rich folk" you talk about. Prices have tripled in 14 years. Workmen wont come out for less than $80-100 an hour. I admit I dont see how anyone living on more than 40K here need stimulus. It is greed. Perhaps you and I are old fashioned, or the exception to the rule of "Live within your means".
