How Would you Spend 10 Grand?
 
Regardless of whether it's dollars, pounds, euros, whatever, how would you spend it? You can't use it for responsible things like rent, mortgage, paying off loans. You can only spend it in shops.

God, this would be so easy.

1. Clothes
2. Shoes
3. Clothes
4. Beer
5. Wine
6. A lot of dining out in my new clothes and shoes
7. Airplane tickets to fly to see my wife
8. Records

10 thousand dollars is nothing these days.

so, probably something ridiculous and fun.


cake, perhaps.

actually along with cake, I'd probably also organise some nice custom wardrobe items. Because off the rack clothes usually look silly on me.

This is kind of funny, because my cousin in FL actually got a chance at this. They won a contest where they were allowed to spend $10,000 at the mall, but they had to do it in 30 minutes. What did her and her husband do?

They bought a $10,000 diamond. They figured they would resell it and then have all of that cash to spend however they wanted. Unfortunately, as well all know, jewelry is WAY over priced and resells way less than what you would pay at a jewelry store, especially one in the mall. They got about $1500 back from selling it, which just barely covered the taxes they had to pay out of pocket in their original purchase.

Either:

I'd use it to pay for a nice holiday on a Greek island for myself, my girlfriend, and either my dad and stepmum or a select handful of friends.

Or:

I might use it to do something nice for a good friend of mine who is pretty ill.

atsonicpark 05.21.2009 09:57 AM

I think I'm going to stop working for like 6 months. Tour. That might be fun.

phoenix 05.21.2009 09:59 AM

not working for 6 months is only great if you have grand plans and stick to them.

No, it wasn't, but that doesn't make it any less funny to me.
