    That’s the wild part. We got like two or three checks of $1200, 800, and like $400 or something similar. Less than $2500. That’s not a stockpile. A stockpile would be if we all had an extra $20-40k just sitting and no debt.

      It’s the people who got laid off or partially laid off that got a good deal. The 600/week unemployment was a lot if money for people, especially if you still were getting most of a paycheck.
