Discussion You've just been given your currency equivalent of 500,000$, but you must CTB in 1 year. How do you spend it?

I have ZERO debt, So nothing to pay off. I would pay for my cremation and Buddhist funeral services. Then I would get a 5 star hotel in Brazil (Probably Rio, Sao Paulo and Salvador Bahia... maybe a few months in each city)... and I would spend all the rest of the money on pleasure, pleasure, pleasure.

Give it to my mom.

Give most of it away to animal charities.
The rest... I don't know except definitely buy a car.

traveling with friends

I'd buy everything in real state and put 33% each to my 3 loved ones. Then I'd eat whatever I want, buy N and go.

Travel

Chicken wings, league of legends skins, a better PC and maybe some drugs. Not much would change from how I already spend money lol

 

[this_is_it]

First I'd invest in stocks, put some in a savings acc with interest. Pay off our rent for the next year. Freeze my eggs incase my boyfriend wants a biological child with me after i'm gone (im transmasc so no way I'm carrying a child, and having a kid might give him something to live for after i die). I'd start testosterone again so that I can atleast pass when I'm in my casket. No surgery because the wait time would probably be over a year. Probably invest in savings bonds too. From there I'd travel the world with my boyfriend, splurge on first class plane tickets, spa trips, whatever we feel like. Eventually I'd convince him to apply to colleges and once he gets in, slowly distance myself so that it doesn't hurt so much when I die. Id make sure to give him all the leftover money in my will and to make him a beneficiary of any accounts we dont share. He's told me he'd have nothing to live for without me and I dont want that to be true, so I'd make sure he'll have enough money to get through college and buy a house and hopefully we make some close friends within that year as well that can help him through grieving. I'd make it the best year of our lives before saying goodbye

I'd give every last penny to the last person I care about, in the hopes that they'll use it to achieve that dream they always had.
They told me they always wanted to be a figure skater. I'd give every last bit to know that they achieved it.
He's had a rough enough life as it is, and i'd love to make it a bit more bearable for him with all that he's gone through up to this point, especially with recent events that were caused in part by me.
the 500k would be able to pay well enough for all his classes and the gear he'd need, and let him comfortably go to college, with enough money left over to use for necessities and a place to live for a non-negligible amount of time.

As for me, I entered this world with nothing, and I'll return the same way.

I don't care enough about, well, anything really, to spend it on myself. I'd rather give it to someone who deserves it, rather than waste it on myself and such.
After so much time being a relative burden on everyone around me, i'm fine with helping the one person who made me feel important in my life.
I know he'll never see this, nobody will, but i sincerely hope he does alright, and if i do go through with it, i hope he lives a long and fulfilling life (even if it does have to be without me, against both our wishes), and achieves his dreams. Lord knows i'd never be able to pursue mine.
