But that all of Sumter, not just the Villages. This is not a inexpensive community to live in

Then I hope to God you do get yours soon to help your struggles. God bless

Yep

That makes it easier it tell everyone else to donate theirs, doesn't it?

We’re not all in the same boat. We have no pension and live off our savings and social security. We are good with our finances but we will use our money to stimulate the economy. Isn’t it better to use the restaurants, shops, travel, etc.? It gives jobs back.

This money is intended to be spent so that jobs can be saved. It's not about whether or not you need it to live. When you get your un-needed stimulus money, go spend it.

Nothing for me so far.

I'm interested to see how it will shake out since I typically owe no taxes and don't have direct deposit info on file with the IRS, but do for social security. News reports say I should be getting a direct deposit, but will the two agencies work together to figure it out? Stay tuned! :icon_wink:

I just read that the IRS is handling this, they will deposit the money into the checking account of those who had a refund and their checking account was on file already. This started last night (Tuesday) If you filed with the IRS but didn't have a refund, then you'll be mailed a paper check beginning May 4th at the rate of 5 million per week, and then could take up to 20 weeks. If you didn't file with the IRS, I would guess they use Social Security records, but I haven't read anything on that.

Made a lot of assumptions there. What flavor koolaid did you drink that told you we’re the top 5%?

Well stated !!!!

We got ours deposited today and I immediately wrote out 2 checks, one for the local food bank and the balance to the local diaper bank. There are a lot of people who need the money more than we do.

According to a digital banking service survey, here is where the stimulus money is being spent"

People who received stimulus checks starting Friday already spent 16% on food orders, 14% on money transfers to friends and relatives, and 10% on gas. Grocery stores are eating up 9% of stimulus checks while 4% of the money is covering bills, and 5% is being spent on video games.
I would guess that some of the 14% sent to friends and relatives is also going to video games.

Actually it wasn't "designed for people out of work" it was designed to be spent to "stimulate" the economy. That would likely be the extra $600 included with unemployment checks you might be thinking about. Glad to hear your financially successful though so you should also post your 1040.

U da Man... go enjoy it....you earned it:bigbow:
