I would use it for living. You know, like booze, bear, wine, cigs, food, clothes, bills ..and yeah, it would be gone it 2 days I think. If anything was left over I'd use it for something fun like 4870 and some games.

Unfortunately, that's not enough money to get a Gateway XHD3000, so I'll have to think of something else. -Swap my Q6600 for a Q9650 and overclock it to 4.0 GHz or so -Replace my 8800 GT with an HD 4870 -Get a Logitech Z-5500 or some sort of home theater speaker system and receiver that'll make good use of my sound card -Get another Thrustmaster HOTAS Cougar to replace my damaged one and have it modded with the FCC-2 -Buy a ton of games that I normally wouldn't be able to afford right now -Get the HTC Touch Pro -Save it all for later

It would be wise if I saved it, but I'd probably use it to fix my KIA computer and update it to a better gaming machine at the same time.

I would buy sooo much weed...:roll: What you expect me to spend another 1k on videogames? I've spent about 800 bucks this gen and i dont wana buy another game for a while.

Buying all three systems would be such a waste of money to me. I'm not that greedy ot whateve you want to call it. I'd probably put it in a trust fund or something.

I would pay for the following, in order: college tuition (42 K per year), college books (500 if all are gotten used), food (120 per month is the budget I set-about a dollar and 33 cents per meal, so I eat lots of Ramen), basic amenities like soap, shampoo and clothing (10 bucks per month maximum), and games (yearly budget of whatever is left over).

[QUOTE="ArisShadows"]

I use to ask this question alot for sheer boredom, sometimes asking my friends what would you do with 10k.

My answer at the time was 2.5k gaming PC, and the rest would go into constructing a gaming room build for gamers. Tvs, consoles, surround sound, perhaps some Lan working of some cheaper gaming pcs, and so forth. I would buy every game I always I wanted to play from past to future.

bearbones

In other words: social suicide. :P

Personally, I'd buy a plane ticket to Japan. That, or put it all on black.

Now that would be financial suicide. I know, I put 5k on red and went home broke.

Save up half and spend the other half upgrading my computer, as long as I don't have any prior debts.
