Well my wife and I got our stimulus payments deposited into our accounts today. Unfortunately it was less then I expected. I thought we were both qualified for the 600 dollar maximum, yet we just got 300. Now that’s fine, the extra money is a boon. I started to pay down one of our credit cards. Used the whole entire amount on it. See I got a plan for that. I’m going to pay down this one card until it’s zero. Then I’m going to do a balance transfer of its full amount, and then pay down the OTHER card. Then do the same thing with that card, to our third and final card. Yes, I know. Problems. Just like the rest of America. The plastic problems are driving us under, but hopefully we’ll be overcoming those. I’m working very hard on doing that.

So the stimulus payment could actually help “stimulate” my families financial situation. Although I know that for most of the families in the United States, it’s far from enough. I truly wish that everyone’s economic situation could improve and that there were enough resources and support for all of this countries inhabitants. Until that time I think it’s important that sometimes we got to help those around us, even when it seems we have nothing with which to help. As bad as things get for you, there’s always someone who’s got it worse.
