Same. I used to play Magic - before the game got 'woke' this year - and saw a ton of people talking about how they were going to spend their stimulus checks on blinging out their Commander deck, buying sealed product, speculating on Reserve List cards or other stupid shit.
I don't know why it doesn't occur to any of them - the ones with jobs and income right now - to save that money for a rainy day. The last of these stimulus checks, I paid for a minor car repair I'd been putting off, then put the rest straight into my emergency fund.
Saving any money right now is a terrible idea. If you have more than 1000$ in a savings you should be buying gold ASAP. 1000$ won’t be enough to buy a loaf of bread sooner than you think.
all the people I know getting stimulus keep talking about the next toy they're going to buy with it. all of them. 100%.

you're doing the right thing. (obviously I'm not eligible for stimulus, I work, have always worked, always made enough and paid crazy taxes)

They used to teach it in schools. Now they don't want you to know.
Exactly. Only low information that has been spun through the MSM machine is approved for normies
