Discussion»Questions»Finance» Did you get your stimulus check or electronic payment yet? I saw on the news that trump had a letter from him in the envelopes.
(You forgot to explain to him that you’re a Nigerian tribal princess whose late parents left a multimillion-dollar inheritance that can’t be accessed unless he helps you withdraw the funds by financing the banking fees . . . )
Shoot! Now I'll never get my multimillion-dollar inheritance and my dreams of opening up an orphanage will never come to light. All those poor children!
Look, I wouldn't say this to just anyone but I know you're a good guy who wouldn't take advantage of the situation. If you can loan me the $5,000 I need to cover the fees to get my money out, I can send you $20,000 in return in 15 days. The children will be so delighted you agreed to help!
I can neither confirm nor deny that I've received a stimulus check. If however I did, I may have spent most of it on building another computer. STAY TUNED!!!
My wife and I file our taxes [by] mid-February [every year], so we were among that first group of people who received the stimulus checks. They went straight into our account and have not been touched since. ~
No I have not received mine yet. I checked the site and it says we are will get it and they do have current bank info.
The letter is meant both to serve as a reminder of who passed the stimulus and to inform people who perhaps received it but no longer use that bank account etc.
President W Bush did the same thing. (of course it was all paper checks back then) President Obama did not send money to everyone instead his stimulus was to fund infrastructure projects (remember those shovel-ready jobs that were not so shovel-ready) So on each project we all saw sign posted on the highways etc saying it was funded by President Obama's stimulus.
They all want credit for whatever they do to stimulate the economy. Trump is not the first nor will he be the last.
I didn’t even read “Uncle Don’s” letter, there was no need to. The majority of politicians, whether you are pro- or anti- of their stands, put out these I-love-me-letters, or how-wonderful-art-I letters all the time.
What burns me up is not only the cost of putting them out (taxpayer money, paper resources for both the letter itself and the envelope, ink, printing costs, postage, manpower costs for administrative access to records of names and addresses, shipping, etc.), but also the fact that in the same household, why have a separate envelope and a separate letter going to both me and to my wife? Extrapolated to every person who shares the same address as another recipient, potentially thousands of dollars burned in an egotistical fire for no reasonable reason. Clearly double the cost of wasted money that was already wasted with one letter. Grrrrrr.
