I just got my check of 300 bucks, I need ideas on how to spend it. So, what did you spend your Stimulus on? :)

You don't have to spend it just because it's a stimulus :) Why not treat it like you do other incomes?
If you ask me, I'd fund my forex account.

Why would you treat it like any other income? Don't you like to enjoy money when it arrives from a different source, other than the general income of "work" ?

As much as I enjoy any money wherever it comes from, I don't like to spend any in a rush ;) If I got an extra $300 I'd treat myself for maybe up to 1/4 of it and save up the rest I guess.

Even though it is a "stimulus" and it's meant to stimulate the economy, it's actually smarter to save it. I didn't get one cuz i don't have a job, but i know i'd probably spend it ;)

Idk, just get yourself something nice.

I think you should save some and spend some! It'd be wise to save, but then hey, you've been doing that with your regular income, why not treat yourself this time. I'd say spend 100 out of the 300 and spend it on something you could really use right now. Something you've been wanting, if you can't think of anything...save it....

^That's what I did...I bought some Jordans with $100 and put $200 in my savings...but now I'm thinking about taking out another $100 to get some Dunks.

I suck at saving money and have a sneaker addiction =/
