So I've been a little absent the past few weeks. One reason is because I just haven't felt super inspired to keep up on my series posts, or write anything in general. The second reason is because I've been working on a personal project and that has ate up a lot of my time these past few weeks. The project is now complete, but still under lock and key.
I've been thinking about this huge jackpot that was all the buzz last week, and it got me thinking about if I were to come into a good amount of money what I would do with it. I'm sure everyone has had this thought at some point in their life. Well below are the few things I would do with the money:
1. Pay off both of my parent's mortgages.
2. Give my siblings enough for a down payment on a house of their own. They would still need to pay for the house by making the mortgage payments however they choose to do so.
3. Buy me a new car. Nothing fancy, a Corolla or something similar.
4. Buy myself a house. Nothing huge, something with at least four bedrooms to have a guest room, an office, and a Beatles memorabilia room. Yes I just wrote that. I have a lot of stuff that should be displayed.
5. Go back to school.
6. Travel a bit. Go to the places I've talked about seeing.
7. Save the rest.
I'm a simple girl, who doesn't need a lot, and wants my family to be happy and feel comfortable too. What would you do if you came into a lot of money?
Chris and I were discussing this with his parents this weekend. I love thinking about what we would do. It's fun to dream!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back... You were missed.
Why thank you! It's nice to be missed. :) And yes it is fun to dream, if only some of them would come true! Someday....
DeleteIt would depend on how much. But I would give everyone I know on FB 10 grand. I would buy a nice house and fill it with designer furniture, like Olivier Dolle's designs. I would try and pay off family members mortgages. Set up my kids with a trust fund for school. I would like a custom-built car to show off of course. LOL :) Trent H.
ReplyDeleteTrent you really do have one of the sweetest hearts I know. I love that you would give your FB friends money. Something most people wouldn't even think of doing. And of course on the car! It wouldn't be you if you didn't. haha
DeleteMy plan sounded a lot like yours! Money stresses me out too much, I would save a LOT of it! But still live a little better. If Patrick had won, he would have been broke by now! Seriously! hahaha.
ReplyDeletehaha don't tell him I said this, but I believe it!
