Stimulus Money
Posted by Tanker-Builder on Wednesday, April 15, 2020 10:21 AM

Hi;

   I have not gotten mine yet. It worries me, because I have been on such a tight modeling budget for so long. Will I use it wisely? Or, will I go whole Hog Crazy with it.

 There are so many things I think I cannot do without. Will I be swayed that way, or will I just say to myself! "Self, Chill Dude ! ! ! " and be practical and just buy that Compressor and New Air-Brush I actually need?

      Oh, and there are so many pretties out there I would like to have. Nah, I will probably be as Tight as a new oak, seasoned plank on a wood boat. So tight I squeek! Ah, Time will tell.

Must be nice to even be able to think about having fun with it. Strictly paying bills here.

If you can even consider using the stimulus for fun money then you don't need it.

I pay a butt ton in Federal withholdings that getting a little back is nice. Can I do without it? yes . I Have continued to work through all this. No stopping the US Mail. So I considered it "Hazzard Pay" and bought a new TV for the living room. If I can't go anywhere after work , might as well enjoy watching TV. It's a 75in Sony 4K incase your wondering. Have to have something to watch during the brakes from the modeling bench! LOL Happy building everyone!

”fun money” is what keeps many businesses going. We need food, clothing, shelter, and water to survive. Anything that you spend beyond those essentials, such as for this hobby or a six pack of beer, can be considered “fun money”.

People spending "fun money" is what drives the US economy. I know that the amount of "fun money" varies from person to person. I also know that we could have a long discussion as to why that is so, but that would just be an endless discussion.

I am looking forward to my check. I'll use it to stimulate the economy by keeping small mom and pop places in business.Those places are the heart and soul of our economy. I really feel sorry for them.
