Am I the only one here that never cashed stimulus checks?

Did you? Didn't you?

Yes I cashed them in

No, I didn't either

[WhiteSteve]

Cashed them in and put them in my IRA. Free money that will become more free money. We’re meant to survive without currency, yet they’ve created a fabricated system that forces us to rely on it, and I get no choice in the matter, despite my philosophical objection to it. For that reason, I am forced to adapt to an attitude of “there’s no wrong way to get money.” And, man…. free money is the best money. If they’re giving away free money, you’re dumb as a box of hammers to not take it. All the hooey about “earning your own way” and “it’s not respectable” is just that: HOOEY. Those are people who are rule-followers to their own detriment and who believe there’s some kind of virtue in following rules that were made up for you. Spoiler alert: there isn’t. Those rules and standards are as fabricated as the society they’re applied to, the accompanying currency that gets printed. We’re supposed to be self-sufficient on a natural level, as wild animals, or at most, barter our skills for those of others. Money shouldn’t be in the equation. So the whole system is wrong in its intentions, and I just don’t agree to play in a game I don’t want to play in. I play in my own game with my own rules. That’s how my life is going to be, and it’s just simply not up for argument from other people.

So when fake-society starts giving away things to make my existence easier…. well, that’s the entire goal of my life: make it from birth to death with as much ease and comfort as I can. There’s no real wrong way to do it, that only matters in the opinions of other humans, and frankly, they’re nothing to me, ultimately, so it’s just about making my own existence what I want it to be. So in a rare event like last year where we got hand-outs…. I was in a fortunate position to not need the money immediately, so I invested it. In the words of the late, great Ol’ Dirty Bastard: “Why wouldn’t you want to get free money?”

Our human experience has been hi-jacked by governments and attempts at organized society. It’s completely wrong, in my opinion, and I can’t defeat the system being imposed on me, so the smartest remaining play for me is to juice it to my advantage. I call it square, it’s what I deserve for them trying to alter the course of my life and tell me what I can and can’t do.

Not free money. You will pay for it. Plus it is income that can put you in another tax bracket. I can't believe any idiot that believes anything is free

I ran right down to the bank and cashed them before Biden bankrupts the country.

[888theGreat]

The country was bankrupt after Obama

Thanks for the MHO

No, you're not. I didn't either but I guess it's because I'm not in the US. Something like that would never happen where I live.

I only got a partial on the first two and nothing on the last one because of my income before tax but I know people that are millionaires that got the full amount because they don’t show much of an income anymore because they are retired

[midnightmoon05]

They took my money to give to all others.. I didn’t get any

[Rachelspiks]
