You are given free money! What do you do with it?

[BlackStar42]

Driving lessons, a ton of games, and invite that certain someone out for dinner at the best damned restaurant I can find.

 

[Kevlar Eater]

I'd use it to finance my computer build; $1000 can go a decent length.

 

[Sebenko]

Well, get rid of a few quid of university debt.

 

[logiman]

so..sth like 300$?
Get a GTX 470 and some games from Steam I guess.

 

[astrav1]

Buy some video games, take a fine lass out to Dinner and a Ballet, then donate the rest.

 

[Mechsoap]

Buy some clothes i have been trying to get money for... Stop looking at me....

 

[John the Gamer]

Give it to some random bipasser, because it's way too untrustworthy to take cash from a random stranger. They'd probably accuse me of theft and put me in a secret camp as part of a sadistic government experiment to counter(combat) the continued integration of aliens in our society. Or is that just too silly?

But I'd probably buy a new PC.

 

[theriddlen]

Buy all the games i always wanted to play but never were on my must-buy-confirmed-high-level-awesome list, get all the classic games i never played, leave rest on bank account for future games.

Buy some clothes i have been trying to get money for... Stop looking at me....

You are sick.

 

[Frozen Donkey Wheel2]

Buy a bigger TV for my dorm. I mean, 32 inches is functional, but once split-screen comes into play...Well, it could be better. I mean, don't get me wrong, I'd buy something more useful (like a car) if I could, but right now, the TV is really the best thing I can get for that kind of money. Also, isn't the "free" in "free money" just a little redundant? I mean, it would be kind of dumb if you had to pay for it, wouldn't it?

 

[Napierdalac]

I could use a new chestrig, belt, magazine pouches. A Surefire weapon light could be awesome to.

Could use a new BDU also. Lots of things to spend money on.

 

[natster43]

I'll invest in the Nerf corporation and get free darts and guns for life.

That is a great idea!
OT: Probably a lot of video games and NERF, as he said.

 

[TheHecatomb]

Either a new TV or a new tattoo. Depends on wether or not I'd be able to buy my way up the line at the tattoo shop. If not I'll just settle for a 42" FullHD TV and some new speakers.

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

Spend 1000 dollars worth on canned food and then give that to the Salvation Army. Food for the poor!

[sub]Seriously, that is what I would do. I'm already so blessed with material wealth that I don't think I would lose this chance to give to the poor.[/sub]

 

[Parvutoiu Catalin]

i'd buy a hooker and some self-esteem

 

[Megacherv]

Considering alcohol or smokes aren't a major part of my daily life and when on special occasions they do, I spend money on them anyway..I don't see why I should use my "special" 1000 pounds on it.

Instead, I'd buy a fancy suit!

.
.

Or a Lamborghini tyre, not the car..just the tyre.

Oh how I have missed your avatar.

I'd probably save it for the time being, then when something comes along that's worthwhile, I'll buy that

 

[UltraDeth]

£1000 ain't worth John-shit anymore so I'll squander it on a laptop, so I can have some privacy *nudge nudge, wink wink, say no more*

 

[Mcupobob]

I was just talking about something like this not to long ago. Make a game show at of it.

OT: I guess I would buy some gold or diamonds or something, get a return investment at of my 'free' money.

 

[krugerrand123]

I would go travel to Italy.

 

[Hyper-space]

Let's say you are walking somewhere, and some government official comes to you and says he's conducting some survey. He gives you a card worth 1000(insert your country's currency here). Think like a universal gift card. The condition is that you have to spend all that money in 24 hours, or the card becomes useless. You can't save it. It has to be spent. How will you spend the money?

Yes, the scenario is silly, but I wanted to try and get rid of the "How" and "Why".

Edit: If 1000 of your currency isn't worth much (like can only buy a meal or something), make it equal to about 1000 US Dollars.

Buy a kick-ass computer. Even more kick-ass than my current one.

Or buy a PS3 with Black Ops and a new (or used) flat screen.

 

[RAWKSTAR]

Hire a professional sheep for a day to fight with.
