I'd forgot about getting a Guberment check in 2001 [View all]

https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/16/politics/coronavirus-romney-proposal/index.html

But I can't remember one in 2008. In 2001 ( I think it was about $600.00) I bought a new 32" TV, nope not a flat screen and my first DVD player for movies. Safe to say I was giving away my VHS movies to Goodwill within a couple of weeks.

But 2008,I don't remember a getting a check.
