our Govt has just given every man, woman and child $950 each....that is over and above the more than $1000 that pensioners/disabled got before xmas.......how to go broke in a hurry :(
Bernice:That is so crazy. Whey did they do that? The US did something similar. We got 1200 dollars from the knucklehead government. They wanted to stimulate the economy. I put it in the bank for a rainy day.

I had heard that a lot of people hadnt spent their money like the government had hoped.... I personally went straight to sears and bought a new lawn mower and refrigerator!!
I dont know what people get from holding on to their money, really??? Its meant to stimulate the economy, and its money you didnt have before anyway, why not help out the economy and spend away???
You say you believe in trickle down economics, yet you horde a government stimulus incentive???
Czuch: I spend my money when I want to. I just bought my wife a new computer (lap top) and we just purchased round trip flights to Arizona. Car rental too. So that will put some bucks back into the economy. So I've more than spent that money but on my terms and not on the governments. I never buy something just cuz I have the money (the government could learn from that). You should see the truck I drive. I could buy a new one outright but why? Better off in the bank. I say good for me and bernice! ;)
Artful Dodger: ***I say good for me and bernice! ;)*** and Im like you....no one tells me when or where to spend...when I need something I will pay for it but spending for the sake of spending is a waste of money....
