Title: So you came into $50,000 dollars....
Post by: Wiggs on October 13, 2009, 09:23:08 PM
After your pay off all your bills, what do you do with the rest?

Just so we can get this out of the way, I'm not buying Jordans, Rims, bling or any other stupid stereotypical shit. 

Serious question.  How would you invest the money?

Lending money to family never ends up turning out right.
My brother makes high very 6 figures and my uncles and aunts used to be on him like white on rice.  He never gave in though.

I never do business with family and never give money out you expect back.

As the saying goes: "If you want to lose a friend, lend him money."

I nearly lost 3k, but after five years of hounding, I finally got the money back. However I did lose the friend at the conclusion though.

As soon as Obama was elected e pulled almost everything out of our stocks and bought gold because we knew this f**k would try and take it. We obviously made the right move. We keep just enough in our accounts to pay bills.

This is true....I've lent out $500 a few times to different family and friends.....never saw a penny back and I know now I'm not going too.  I just chalked it up to a gift and let it go.  Will there be any more "loans"?  No.

With an extra 50K?  Easy.....I'd start my new website.....Getbigger.

In all seriousnes, pay off your bills, buy a loved one a little something. drop 20% of the balance in a short term investment ( GIC, RRSP,  in case of an emergency ) and put the rest in an aggressive mutual fund and sit back and thank GOd for your blessing.

five years...lol wtf? :-X

Long story, yes. But I will spare you the bullshit involved.
Gave her a loan of 3k for some medical issues, she paid back within 2 weeks.
Then she came to me and was up front about the next loan, saying that she'd be unable to pay it back as quickly. I gave her the $, she paid back a couple hundred, and then dropped off the radar, though when I engaged her we'd talk and keep in touch. Finally after some time, 4yrs I guess, I asked her straight out "Are you screwing me or just taking an extra long time to pay me back? Just want to know if I'll ever see another cent."
She began payments again, and once her and I had a falling out over something else, she paid me off one lump some. Too bad I never got the interest on the money SHE APPROACHED me with. But the original loan was paid off, so at least that happened.

After your pay off all your bills, what do you do with the rest?

Just so we can get this out of the way, I'm not buying Jordans, Rims, bling or any other stupid stereotypical shit.

5 people this year, usually in the $10-$25 range.  doesn't cover my bandwidth costs.  over the years, there have been 3 people who have given very generous donations of many hundreds.   People at the bb mags (both US and not) have told me they love my website, use it all the time.  Wish they'd use that donation button now and then.  (they don't even comp me mags)

that's pretty lame

50k is an annoying number.

Too much to spend on a night out at the Casino.

Too little to use for real estate,
and too little for spending time and energy to
make it increase. For example;wasting brainpower and time
with 50K on the stockmarket making a lousy few% gain every month
with the risk of it depreciating.


I would buy some nice 50K gift and give to my parents.

That's why it's such a good question.  ;)

Me? I would pay $40,000 off my mortgage and blow the rest on a nice five-star holiday.

As soon as Obama was elected e pulled almost everything out of our stocks and bought gold because we knew this f**k would try and take it. We obviously made the right move. We keep just enough in our accounts to pay bills.

Serious question.  How would you invest the money?


We are at a very tricky point in economic history when it comes to investing.
- Can you trust the recent rise of the stock market ?
- With low interest rates you can't get much out of deposits and bonds.
- Gold and other commodities had a good run - Good for people who had them, but is it not too late to enter now ?
- Has the housing market really bottomed ?

Even the best experts don't know what to do with their cash at the moment - most of them just won't admit it.
So the last thing I would do is follow the "good ideas" of others, because they don't know more about the future than you or I do.

What you can do however is start reading more about the state of the world from an economic point of view to understand the mechanisms of the financial / economic system better before investing in anything and then form your own opinion. But before doing so, really take a step back and look at the big picture of what is really happening in the world. Have a read at the "Optimism? For the time being." article (or listen to it in your car as a podcast or MP3).
You can download it here: http://www.wegelin.ch/medien/anlagekommentar.asp
Also have a look at the older articles on their website.

(I am by no means associated with the company that published that article, nor do I know anybody working there, but I find their economic commentaries to be among the best you can find. They often get quoted in the Financial Press and are even used in some leading business schools)
