Lordy, Lordy my Gub'mint check she gone, she gone (spoken with the appropriate eubonics drawl)! Yep I pissed it away - every cent of it. Plus about $300.00 more. And it only took me 10 or 12 days. I spent every penny of it, on GUNS! I could NOT be happier. I can't wait for the next one (Gub'mint check!). I am growing to like this Gub'mint give away stuff. It would not take much for me to become a member of the "gimmee, gimmee, gimmee" crowd. I am just happy as a clam with the two Rifles and 1 pistol I bought with my Gub'mint check. First off I bought a mint perfect all original Remington 513-T with 3 magazines and original Redfield Target sights circa 1965 ($400.00) . Next day I bought a minty Marlin Golden 39-A circa 1965 ($550.00) Then yesterday I completed a deal on a Kimber Custom II 45 ACP ANIB with 3 Kimber magazines ($575.00 - came with two new unused "survival knives" valued at $210.00 retail). Anyway I can not remember, ever, so unabashedly "pissing away" this much money - and feeling so good about it. I have "stimulated" the economy enough for now. I have to get myself back under control. I just hope some of this money came from george soros's pocket. He-he. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

That’s better than where mine is. It’s in the bank drawing .000001% interest.

Enjoy it while you can. You/we will pay for it and lots more in taxes, in the future.

I was at PSA yesterday, and almost bought a Gen 5 Glock 34, but, alas, I don't get no gu'mint check. I figured the only fair thing to do was leave it for someone with a gu'mint check to spend.

Kids, Grandkids, Great-grandkids will pay, most likely. Incrementally......progressively raising tax rates. Frog boil. Federal anyway. State income and property taxes will skyrocket soon. Enjoy it while you can. You/we will pay for it and lots more in taxes, in the future.

Mines gone as well. Lots of DIY home improvements. Tiled the backsplash in the kitchen, as well as the fireplace. I had to buy a tile saw, and cracker as I haven't done tile before. New kitchen sink as the not very old Moen stainless cracked and I can't find the receipt.. Bought new chainsaw and a pruner. Snuck in a Triggerteck as well.

Have yet to get one and seriously doubt I will. The one thing about these “stimulation checks” that bugs me is people who saw absolutely no changes to their income due to these shut downs got a check also. Why? Ronnie

Yea, I'm not really a fan of raising the debt. I do pay taxes and I didn't get the full amount. I'm OK with spending mine.

My buddies getting a new Seekins bolt gun in 6.5 Creed, ( Seekinsprecision.com ). I had predicted that his money would be burning a hole in his pocket. But at least it went to something nice. The firearms and ammunition companies are sure to get some economic stimulus out of this.

Pissed ours away on this year's home and auto insurance. Hope to get another financial infusion to pay property taxes . (Not really)

Free money, what a concept. Then I think about the folks who are contributors to the society in which they live for whom this money is important. the 'free money' is going into and stimulating the economy and getting us past this weird speedbump. Improvise, adapt, overcome. It is the American way and new problems call for new solutions. There are interesting times ahead. We will see how smart and tough we are, I remain optimistic.
