The free money will depreciate the USD.

Might as well get your cut we will all be paying for it in the future.

They can keep their money, which is our money. Let's just end this nonsense and get back to work.

So spend it fast before the USD hyperinflates into Zimbabwe dollars.

Re: Will you take the $1200 check?
OP, you mistakenly assume EVERYONE will get a $1,200 check.

NOT TRUE.

There is a threshold in which those above a certain income will get nothing, and it’s a low threshold. I last heard it was $75,000.

That counts ME out.

I’d gladly take the $1,200 but I won’t be getting any.

@ 75K they start giving less. It cuts you off @ 99k per person or 198k for a married couple.

So if you are living off of social security, I wonder if you get anything.
 Quoting: hollyavila


My wife said she read that you do get it. My mother-in-law is on SSI.

She could be wrong but that is what she said.

Not getting one because supposedly I make too much money. Even though for the rest of 2020 it looks like I’ll make almost nothing unless I live off my stock trades.

It should be prospective not retrospective. I made a few million in 2018 and spent most of it in 2019 on hookers, fast cars, and blow. It’s not looking good for 2020.

NO! This is not free money!

Did you file a tax return last year? Eligibility - YES. If not...

Fill out info that puts you back on the grid with the IRS!!! To get the check!


Not financial advise!!! Just common sense to those in need and those trying to scam!

What I've read is they're going off of 2019 tax return filings if they've received it already and 2018 filings if they haven't.

This is a single parent household … it's AS IF there were 2 adults making 50k each.

I'm a little miffed about it.
