If it continued, it would mean my flight to a certain city might have been delayed. I would not have minded, had it been for the fact that it is a connecting flight to a far away destination. However, I would have taken another plan to that city just in case it was delayed.
In other ways, it did not affect me as I am retired and ok with finance. Thank God.

@bklynbadboy12 the last 40 days it was in effect "I'm no Americano" had likely no bearing on me. Or if it did, it was only in stocks for all I know. I wouldn't know lol 😂😆

Not at the moment, but if it keeps going on into the New Year it will affect millions of Americans trying to get their tax refund.

I can only give the same answer I did on a similar question, if it weren't for the news we wouldn't even know it was happening. 🤷‍♀️

  It effects a lot of Gov't workers and business contracts. Effects handicap people. Air Travel. So you must not have a Gov't job, fly much, or have business with Gov't. You work at McDonalds?

No, it isn't. I'm still getting up and going to work and receiving my paycheck. They're even still taking a buttload out for taxes.

Slightly: I need assistance of a financial nature and I can't get it because the offices I'd need to contact to get that help are closed and I'm not gonna be able to get food stamps.

If flying was part of my job, Yes. But thankfully it isn’t. I just feel bad for the military and air traffic controllers not getting paid

No not at all. I purposely built a life where I depended on the government as little as possible.

The government shutdown is proving that we could eliminate half of our government.
