    2. Ordered Supreme 1.5” solid billet aluminum rear block and u-bolt kit. $102

    3. Lastly, I ordered from Camburg their X-joint UCA’s. $700

    ...wife wasn’t too happy after I told her this, but then I spent another $775 on stuff for her. So we are back on good terms!

    Advice here.
    Put it in a good Mutual Fund and forget it's there
    If your young that $1400 could make an impact on your retirement.
    {EDIT} I used a 401K calculator. An investment calculator results in the same numbers.

    Not getting stimulated. The Feds apparently think I get stimulated enough. If I did get stimulated, it’d go toward purchase of some large caps with dividend reinvestment.

    Being retired and managing our incomes fairly well has 'qualified' us for all 3 rounds.

    None of which we were close to needing. Not bragging, just pointing out that the process is broken.

    Anyway, we gave all of the 1st two rounds away, and will do the same with this one.

    It's not hard to figure out those around you who are actually in need and give them a little help.

    Retired too. I managed our income too well, thus no stimulus x3.

    Was referring to managing current 5 sources of income, not our past earned income.

    Those investments are all quite healthy and growing but also well sheltered. So our taxable levels fall in parameter.
