You should sit on that money until January, then take a trip to San Francisco. On that trip, you should go to Alcatraz, and from there jump into the Bay and try to swim to Sausalito. The rest of us can bet on whether you make it or whether you drown, get attacked by a shark or succumb to hypothermia.

Face, you're boring. What the fuck are you going to do? Die with $6k in your bank account? To what end? Pfft.
You talk like I'm going to die tomorrow. I have used up less than 30% of my life expectancy, there's a lot of time left for me to put that money to a good use.

At any rate I'd take that over looking for ways to spend the money right now. Whatever, though, it's all yours.

One can hope. Less Noose wouldn't exactly be a bad thing right now.


And though we are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are---
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Travel, stocks, savings -- I'm just surprised and disappointed I can do so little.

You have free will but you ain't got no choice. The whole thing is a mess, downright and through.
free is when you don't have to pay nothin' or do nothin' we just wanna be free

free as the wind

Burberry, Louis Vuitton, Hermes, Dior, Ferregamo, Bulgari, oh and buy yourself a Rolex. That'll put your money into good use. Otherwise save up for a Ferrari.

Well if it were £6,000, rather than dollars, I'd buy 7 ounces of coke, mix in 7 ounces of baby teething powder and sell it by the quarter ounce for £280 a go, netting me £15,680. I'd then buy 15 ounces, sell half of it, and spend the rest of the year snorting the other 7 ounces of bugle and enjoying all the stuff I'd bought with the profits, a fat tv, loads of computer games, copious beer etc.

I'd put the $6k in a savings account and save it for a rainy day. Because I know I've wasted far more money then that over the past few years on video games and DVDs, which is part of the reason I'm in the situation I'm in now.

Actually neus, serious suggestion. With six grand you buy the necessities as it regards furniture, make a down payment on a car, spend $1000 on driving lessons if necessary, and find a place to live on your own. You can relocate somewhere better suited to the rest of your life.

I still maintain 6k ain't a whole lot, and you're still dirt poor, but it's a sufficient amount of capital to start a life.

- 20 years old, single, fit, smart
- unattached, free, from all and any commitments
- with $6k in the bank, ready to be spent at your heart's desire.


Have at it. Nothing is off the table.
Let's just not have any stupid suggestions like "go for a vacation" or "las vegas baby". Your input will influence my next 12 months.
You only have six grand in your life savings? Pfft, pathetic.

I was gonna suggest that you invest in yourself for some higher education, but that piddly amount isn't gonna cut it given University tuition fees these days

This is the answer you're looking for.



Unless, that is, you're a bitch and can't handle a sweet ride, then I'd put it in the bank like all the other non-spendthrifts. You'd be surprised how life can suddenly expect you to cough up six grand.

If you are unmotivated and uninterested, then just don't do anything. Christ, I would murder to have even one day where I can wake up and realize I don't have a damn thing that needs to be accomplished.

I would definitely buy $6,000 worth of poison and then eat it. You know, if I were you.

Let's see...

I'd ask you to use such money on a gun of some sort (splash damage = awesome) and just go and kill a specific target everyone hates collectively. Like, say, Steve Jobs, our dear president, Uwe Boll, Carrot Top, Pat Richardson, or...hell, even George Lucas to help society recover from those lame movies. The list is endless.

Then take the rest of the money and use it to crystallize their bones and drink wine out of them. And then laugh as evilly as you can.

Then build a lair with liquid hhot maghmah. Don't worry, half the fellows in this thread will give you the scar and weird mannerisms.

Personally, I would just skip to the maghmah. Whatever makes you happy.

It turns out that today is opposite day, so all of what you have said is true, so you should probably just go.

Start school. No, $6k won't get you far, but it'll get you relocated to whatever city you want to end up in. In the end your first degree is the best financial investment you can make... unless you're an art/philosophy major.

You rock. LOL!

I'd use it to travel the world or donate some of it. What about your personal interests? maybe you could use it to start a small buisness or I don't know, if you like photography or something use it towards that.

Maybe be annyonmous and use it to fullfill someone's dream.
