    This site claims if you pay out to the IRS yearly versus recieving a refund you wouldn't have gotten the stimulus money yet. What to Do If You Haven't Received Your Stimulus Check or It's for the Wrong Amount

    That’s what happened to myself and a few others I know, in 08. They decide you’re in trouble, and actually help your demise. First you get hooked, then they let you run, while they make money off you, then reel you in when they decide its time. Sounds paranoid, but it’s true. A lot of people are headed for a lot of financial turmoil. Having been through it before, I don’t wish it on anyone, but a lot are going to find out how fast it happens, and how nasty the creditors really can be, when they no longer love you. Lol

    It's going to be a rough ride. Luckily I'm single and don't have anyone to support. But I would probably be better off mentally if I had a wife and family. But in my current state I can fail and only I suffer. And I am good at suffering. I actually kind of thrive on suffering.
    In 2008 I had just got back from working in Iraq as a contractor. I was a company driver and really didn't care about much. Everything was still much better than where I came from in Iraq. I made a lot of money but spent a lot of it traveling around Europe then living in Argentina for a few months.
    But I have been on the street, been in homeless shelters, lived in a taxi, etc before that. This all the while after having been raised playing golf and tennis on the weekends.
    This is why I don't fit in anywhere. I could easily be one of those guys on the street you come across, when you're out with your church group, who can quote more Bible verses than you but who has failed miserably as a human being.

    You’ll get your paper check in mail. The status on IRS’s website will change in a few days to something like: we will mail it to the address we have on file...

    I actually made it part 2 lol. Not very optimistic it'll go any farther then that. Even IF they give more funds for the ppp loans. Im a very small fish to these banks. But I did receive 1k out of the 10k grant money. Personally I just wanna get on the road again my wife and I are at each other's throats!

    I hope they amend it somehow to actually go to where it was intended. And not the bigger Aholes that don't need it.

    I saw shake shack returned their 10M.
    And the landscape business in portland that took it when they're still going with only a 5% loss of customers. They have 300 employees.

    I would love to see some sort of help for those that don’t take gov help and make it through this. Would be nice to be rewarded. Maybe like 20% off your tax bill or something.

    That would be nice for those of us not taking any of the loans/bailouts. But LOL we know the reality of that.
