Like I said before, you just don’t understand how financially successful people think. I know you find it hard to believe that people won’t just blow that check but it’s true

They (researchers) actually did a study on this that was quite well done. The conclusion were people with money take a long term view of money (I'E what are the opportunity costs of spending now versus saving/investing for later. Lower income people were far more likely to have the belief you spend it right away and not take a long term view. I'll try to find the link.
Can't find link but lot's of papers on difference of money mentality between poor and wealthy.

Oh I only read to the two checks part and became livid. Trumpy will get us more money watch. Its the art of the deal. They come in with the low ball $600 you hit them with the 2000 then you finesse them back and settle at $1200. You always just have to go through the motions on these things. The dance. Trump is a master at finessing when it comes to deals. Unbelievable.

Poor people typically don't save because their income is minimal and any disposable portion of that is even smaller if it exists at all. Of course you are going to be more likely to save if you have a high enough income that saving pays substantially, vs having some minimal amount over subsistence that could go towards a small entertainment budget or a meager nest egg. But at least whatever small amount of money you save will at least grow in buying power just as fast as a richer person's would, right? Or maybe not.
Poor people are such idiots for buying Christmas presents too. But such assholes if they don't, what a bunch of deadbeats, am I right?

In todays world having money in brick and mortar savings devalues it due to inflation. You have to make the money work for you. So if you have 6k in savings it is wise to take 4 out and invest it somehow via the stock market/index funds or start a business.
Name of the game is to diversify, gold, stocks, funds, property, savings, business.
Online banking also has better rates so many have moved there savings there.
Of course it takes money to make money and there is no such thing as getting rich quick unless you hit the jackpot off the stock market lottery. Then there is insider trading,,,,,
The down side, each year people have to consume more than the last to keep the investors happy and the game rolling.
I can grantee on one side the stimulus goes into investments, on the other it goes to the electronics division at the best buy, amazon or Walmart. Then sheepel get to be entertained with there 50 inch tv while the bank takes there land. Then an real estate investor ether flips the house or rents it out.
In profits alone, this year bezos could give each and every on of his employees a 100k bonus and still be ahead. Instead he hired the pinkerton's to spy and break up any union activities to protect his investment. 
This is not called the biggest transfer of wealth in modern history to sound cheeky, it's the reality.

You don't think of all the angles tho. Your looking at the little picture with all this talk of index funds and junk bonds. Imagine the money your missing out on due to loss of productivity from lack of leveraging an espresso machine heavy profilio. Your pretty much losing money every second you don't have one.

You people are so fucking cynical you can’t even imagine regular people who try to make a living online will be ripped off the second they have any success, and unlike big studios, they don’t have the resources to enforce the law themselves. It’s the little guy that needs the government on their side.
