Sorry I missed your post/link.

I got nothing on blame.

Much money went to the wrong places. The end.

Here's my specific personal frustration. The 31 year old slug I occasionally schlep to the methadone clinic received an $8k unemployment catch-up payment while living free with his not well heeled Mom earlier this year.

He disappeared for two weeks. Guess how much went to Mom and guess how much he had left at the end of two weeks?

13 stimulus payments up his arm.

I am sure that I'm nowhere's near understanding your frustrations
Truly hope it all works out.

same here but I'm not in need.

I can appreciate any that didn't get a check because of AGI
Certainly no need to complain if so.

[A930Rocket]

No deposits for me, but that’s ok.

I’m going to look on the positive side and hope someone who needs it, gets it.

We got it, and we dropped $300 of it on Saturday at various locally owned and operated bars and restaurants. We'll drop more over the next few weeks until it's gone. This isn't hard economics...who needs it more, your neighbors or VISA???

Hoist one for Tonya! You go Paz %^}

Someone has to PAY for it.
It is forced wealth redistribution via gubmint and it is wrong.

Here's my personal frustration. The gf gets a check for $20k+ and I tell her to put aside 1/3 for taxes. She does that, then a little while later, she confesses to buying a new Hermes bag and something else to the tune of $5k.

My wife and I are retired and have filed our taxes online for many years . My wife has drawn her SS for over a year now I have not starting drawing mine . Last week my stimulus check was deposited into our bank account . Hers is being mailed . Government efficiency at its finest . The Feds have all our info and still decided to pay out two different ways ............... strange .

[KFC911]

^^^^ Same as last time. Mine show up in my acct. first thing. Others might be much later, or by mail (already a fooster-cluck of backlog right now), and they also draw SS (via deposit) and use DD for their IRS filings too.... makes no sense.

She's got something to show for it at least. Not unlike one of us buying Fikse wheels.

Look at the bright side. This will probably be the last spendy bauble she will ever want.

I get it. My neighbor, who has lots of natural bad luck but likes to make some of his own, inherited $60,000. It would have paid off his mortgage, but he blew it all at the casino over the course of a few weeks.

Profound opportunity missed.

The problem child I mentioned would ask for $$ to buy lotto tickets with the promise he would split the winnings with me.

Sorry about going a bit OT in this OT thread.

[stevej37]

An additional $1400 looking probable.

Pass "GO" collect $600. Just don't land on Park Place.

[cabmandone]

I guess if I wait long enough, the folks I'm ranting about in my thread might be able to pay for the damage to my daughter's car! Nah, who am I kidding?

[Joe Bob]

All the news sites are rants about Trumpers attacking the DC buildings.

Nothing about the 2K, yo! Or on my case the exta 14...
