It's really quite baffling how many people blew their stimulus cheques immediately on luxury purchases. I can only presume they're people that were in denial about the gravity of the situation and figured it would all blow over in a couple weeks, but even that assumption is quite monumentally stupid.
to be fair, that was the entire point of the stimulus money.

literally in the name stimulus, to stimulate the economy by purchasing things.

yes, smarter people saved it, or paid off bills, but a fair amount of people didn't really need to and could spend it as they saw fit to.

anecdotally, my family and i didn't really need one, but we still qualified and got one.

my "portion" of the money went towards pre-ordering the ps5 and series x, while my wife opted to buy pretty much a new wardrobe. our kid got a bunch of toys. none of us really needed these things, or needed that money to be able to do those things, but since we had it, it did feel a smidge better spending it on those things than it probably would have.

not everyone had the luxury of that, though.
