I always love this kind of dreaming. The Non Consumer Advocate asks here (http://thenonconsumeradvocate.com/2010/09/what-would-you-do-with-an-extra-100-1000-10000-2/) what would you do with an extra $100? $1000? $10,000?
$100: get my hair cut and buy a new pair of shoes. Oh no, that was before I got a traffic ticket this morning. Pay ticket.
$1000: Put it towards the car repair bill.
$10,000: Put some in the children’s college savings funds, use some for family vacation. I received a legacy in this amount a year ago and that’s what I did with it. Some stayed in the emergency fund.
Now, if I didn’t want to save any of it, just spend spend spend, I’d do this:
$1000: family weekend out of town at a nice hotel OR send the money to my sister so she and her partner could come and visit.
$10,000: arrange a family vacation in some fun spot like Costa Rica, pay for mother, sister and sister’s partner to join us. Extra money, I would invite a couple of friends to come as well.
