I’m thinking FR would be a worthy place to donate it.

First of all, like everything else, I’m sure I won’t get it. But if I did, I’d go to the bank and ask for all $1 bills, since toilet paper can’t be found anywhere else.

My wife makes over that but I don’t.
Guess I am out of luck.

Does SS and 401K income count toward the 75K limit?

Is the check only for Americans making under 75K? Can't wait to hear how they will determine this. No matter what they do, it will be flawed. Very flawed.

Since my laptop has already eaten one hard drive, I might get a new one. I like watching videos of “Cold Waters”, “War Thunder”, “Digital Combat Simulation”, but, Idunno!

Yeah. Those are some of the questions we have. DH will email our Vanguard guy for info and we hope he’s been keeping up.

What will I do with $1200 when it arrives?
I could put it into my money market savings to offset a tiny fraction of the money I've lost in the stock market ...
OR ....
I can use it to help friends who are hurting right now. Some of which are struggling right now having lost their jobs in all this, others of which are self-employed, won't get a check and could use the money more than I can.
As for me, I'm investing in my friends and helping them out. I don't need the $$$ and they do. It's a slam-dunk decision for me.

Does SS and 401K income count toward the 75K limit? Honestly, someone with a fixed income stream (SS, pension) who will not be losing any money during the shutdown period should not be receiving a bailout check. My wife and I was examples of this (one taking SS, the other with a modest pension).
For retirees, I would rather they scale back the RMD amounts. They probably can't waive them entirely for 2020, although they may, but they could reduce the RMD amounts for 2020 by 50%. Something like that.

I just might give mine to the President’s campaign.Hmmmmm. Dr. mrs. jimfree and I have been talking about giving away our (reduced) payment. Yours is a tempting suggestion.

Vote out any politician that votes “for” this ridiculous waste of money.
$1200 ain’t spit...and won’t keep anybody from tumbling into whatever financial abyss they were already destined for.
