@Giant_Aspirin

When's the last time you tried the site?

It was saying that to me for weeks but recently shifted and told me I'm getting it mailed on the 1st.

About half of it is going to debt, that'll clear me completely, dunno what I'm doing with the rest.

---

Probably just gonna put it toward my mortgage

---

thus far, stocks and crypto, the rest to mortgage by default

---

it pretty much exactly covers two months of bills.

---

I bought stocks.

some of us are caught between non-eligibility for the smallest reason.
wanted to save it for a ps4 at the end of the year.
---

It went to my student loans. Is that considered necessity?

---

I've hardly spent any of it yet. Just not much I really want or need to buy right now.

---

Not planning on spending it on anything in particular, it'll be going into my bank account.

---

Im thinking of saving it for my teeth, since they give me so much insecurity and pain.

---

Given away about $500 of it so far.
---

necessity since i need more video games to play to prevent me from losing my mind while "working from home"

---

Its sitting in the bank until either it is needed or until things go back to normal when my wife and I can go on a nice vacation.

---

Still debating some tires.

---

If we get another, probably 50-60% savings/ investments, the rest on bullshit.

---

Both mine and my fiance's went to a vet bill. Almost paid it all with just those funds alone.

Same here.

I spent it on groceries and bills

---

Do stocks and savings count as luxury or necessity?

---

I'm an "essential worker", so I'm still working. Mostly been buying somewhat more expensive beer and food than normal.
I also had to cancel a trip, so I have that money coming back in too.

Save it, you never know if lockdown happens again

---

I saved mine. Still not sure what to spend it on.

---

Bills.
