Show Me The Money: Have you received your Stimulus Check yet?

by | Apr 27, 2020 | News | 0 comments

Have you received it yet? Yes, the Stimulus Check the government is sending out to qualified individuals to help ease some financial woes during the Shelter in Place time. Not everybody’s lucky to be able to work from home, and many got unemployed. It’s sad to know how much lives were affected. Thankfully there are a lot of people trying to make a difference by providing some help to those in need. It can be seen on Facebook how others are posting on their wall, saying they will share food with those who don’t have. Other community-oriented apps are used to offer grocery shopping and drop off help, goods exchanges, and other free gifting options.

Are the Stimulus Checks for real? At first, it seemed too good to be true, hearing that the government will send out some financial help to people. It has been weeks since the funds’ distribution was initiated, and it looks like some people already received theirs. It’s indeed real and not just a fad! The fact that some people received their checks is a good indication for the rest who are anxiously waiting. It’s tough to tell whether the checks are on their way or still being processed. The IRS provided a way to check. It doesn’t help that the USPS services are also at a slower pace, mails being way delayed than the projected dates of receipt.

Is that amount good enough to sustain during this time if all your income has been cut off with no means of employment? Of course not, it is just meant to aid for some things so you can keep going. Everybody has different tiers of spending, and one may live with the least amount while one may need to support a lot more luxuries. Rent, bills, groceries, and other things money is needed for can’t be all provided for every individual or family. That’s not possible at all. It’s a tough time, but one should not lose hope and see some light with the least things we get day-to-day. The Stimulus Checks are not big enough to sustain all financial needs but it would be enough to help provide food and other basic necessities. It’s after all free monetary aid; something one didn’t beg for, be happy and thankful once you receive it. It’s more worth than you thought.
