If you had $100 what would you do with it?
Ok, I'm bored today and curious...came from another conversation with someone to which I had to reply I have no idea...
If you had $100 to spend any way you want excluding debt, savings, EF's etc....what would you spend it on? You can't save it in any way. It is imaginary blow money totally. And it has to be spent on YOU. No kids, no spouse. YOU!
I, in all honesty, would have to think about it.Bank of America is THE godfather of Hell with Wells Fargo running neck and neck. When the world ends the only things that will be left are cockroaches, Walmart, Wells Fargo and Bank of America. Not necessarily in that order. The order remains to be seen.

Like this one...I'm surprised I truly can't think of anything...Yeah, I could spend it but not for anything that would really float my boat.

I can remember my grandmother saying "I don't need anything"...I guess I'm turning into my grandmother...that's not a bad thing tho.Bank of America is THE godfather of Hell with Wells Fargo running neck and neck.

Great question. Hmm, I would probly put it in the bank lol. But if I HAD to spend it, I'd spend it on household things. I've been here a year and we're still without several items I wish we had. Such as:
a large skillet (my biggest is only 10 inchs
more spoons, spatulas etc
food storage containers
drawer organizers
Other things I'd need to add money to that 100 would be....
computer chair
coffee table/end tables
dining room table/chairs
2 TV stands
movie/dvd storage
new larger dresser
And the list goes on and on lol.Chele

Rich
Momma to furbaby Christopher (lives with my parents)
I love to cook, hang out with friends, have alone time with my boyfriend, visit family, go on road trips, shopping, eating

Household stuff, mainly kitchen. I really really need some bamboo cereal bowls...my BF and this tile floor really are not good friends. So shatterproof dinner/drinkware would be top of my list. I could also use a grille for our patio cuz it'll be getting hot here soon.

Ok gals/guys...for YOU...no kids, spouse or house...what would you get for YOU!!! It could be hobby stuff since that's you personally.

I am in desperate need of a new pair of slippers and the rest would go to getting my hair professionally colored. I'm splurging for the haircut tomorrow but just bought color in a box at Walmart.

ok...since you won't let me save it then this game really is 'imaginary'....
in that case... i would go buy $100 worth of candy...(oh yea...lots and lots of different kinds...) and of course i would still be 'frugal' so there would be TONS of it...
then i would crawl back into my tent...turn on the tv (where i have 15 episodes each of 'hoarders'...'til debt do us part'.&..'neat'...) epsiodes recorded ... and i would PIG OUT....
and remember since it's imaginary...i won't get sick and die from all the sugar...lol...(or gain 25lbs).....
(and Niko...you thought i would say buy some more daq mix for the next boat outing....well---hahaha....).....too bad for you...lol
