What are you going to do when your second stimulus check arrives?

[el padron]

I think I'm gonna buy a used model S Tesla when my second stimulus check gets deposited.

 

Amazon Forum Fav 👍

Treasure of Victoria Peak - Grab it through Amazon!

Direct deposited just like the first one.

They are starting a new thing where you get a prepaid debit card and not a stimulus check. I just got my first money in the form of a card. What a pain in the arse to register it, too.

Direct Deposit, here...

 

[fistfulladirt]

Spend it as soon as I get it, like the last.

Since we haven't been able to have a vacation of sorts. I really want to show my wife and boys a really good time. Maybe get a weekend spot in gatlinburg

 

[fyrffytr1]

I haven't got my first one yet. And, I haven't got my 2019 federal refund either!

I haven't got my first one yet...

Just got mine in the mail yesterday. Didn't know there would be a second and I'll believe it when I see it, just like the first one. They ain't voluntarily getting my bank account info either.

And what the hell is a refund?!

MKW 'm not getting any stimulus money.

I'm sorry about that,

You are not missing much.
Hopefully you are healthy, in good spirts and ready to take on what has the possibility of turning out to be a good summer.

The last time I was in Gatlinburg the downtown area was nothing but cheap shops. What shops on the main drag that weren't selling plastic souvenirs were either selling time shares or porn! My wife and I went to Pigeon Forge and stopped in Gatlinburg on our way back south. We stayed less than an hour before heading home! I don't have any desire to go back.

I actually agree with fyr, my wife and I went 5 years ago; not impressed. We liked the smokey mountains but the gift shops were crap, we were solicited over and over abouttime shares. We decided to drive to the Cherokee reservation and that was better, but that wasn't as great as it was when I was young.

Invest in toilet papers stocks...? MAY become the new "Forever Stock", like Coco-Cola...

Creskol, me too! I originally thought it was junk mail...lol

 

[Mudflap]

.... I didn't get the first one yet!

The concept of time shares is amazing. The element of "fee simple " ownership that exists in deeded ownership of real property does not exist in any shape or form.

The product being sold is an open ended contract completely favoring the grantor (seller) .

The grantee (buyer) agrees to pay unlimited recurring fees in perpetuity pertaining to a subject property that is completely egally owned by someone else and yet according to the contracts involved he doesn't have any legal say whatsover regardng to its ushage or anything else.

Thay agree to pay fees forever in exchange for nothing at all.
There is usually no cap on the number of "time" shares sold petaining to each subject property either. Its absolutely unlimited.

You have to be a real peice of garbage to participate in selling those things because you have to actually contrive to screw people over and over.

Sounds like what Wisconsin Dells is turning into.
Not so much "sex shops", but a lot of trinket shops with over priced stuff.
But still an OK place to spend a day once a year.

Gonna save it for after-lockdown vacation, just as I did with the first one. There's gotta be something positive about this situation, I think
