The first direct payments to U.S. adults from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act is hitting bank accounts this week.

Fifty-one percent (51%) of Americans report that they will use it to pay bills or purchase essentials like gas or groceries.

Twenty-nine percent (29%) say they will either save or invest the money.

The rest plan on donating it or spending it on non-essential items.

That's according to a recent Gallup poll.

Thirteen percent (13%) of adults report that they do not expect to receive a payment.

    Yes.
    Ours went into savings for now.
    In another month or two, we will use it to pay down debt.
