It's not like 2008 when middle class people saw incomes drop and layoffs.

OK, let's lay off the personal attacks, especially if you're a third party.

Must be nice being robin hood.

Unless there are mass layoffs or mistakes made with monetary policy, I'm really not expecting a repeat of the great recession.

I made an account on Robinhood and found some stocks that seemed like good investments.

While I see the struggles of the working class in America who have been systematically screwed by the system for decades, stealing housing ala Robin Hood is a really stupid way to try to alleviate the issue.

I was hesitant to START investing when this coronavirus disaster started and especially hearing of job closings/layoffs for non essential workers.

Another option is to simply open a brokerage account (Webull, robinhood, fidelity, M1 finance are all good) and start putting your money in an index fund.

given this scenario.great tenant.. works in hospitality or some other niche that is suffering and has a temporary lay off.. 

To pay the extra $$ for healthcare, we will have to lay off an existing employee.
