If you had 50, 000 dollars, what would you spend it on?

I'd probably use it as a down payment on a house.

I would put my kid through college first of all. Then whatever was left over I would put to good use and make more money with it.

Ah, don't do that! Break it in half at least! LOL! You might lose it all! Thanks for replying.

I would put half in the bank and use the other half to buy a car and take a vacation.

If I had that money to spend, I would buy a couple of small houses or apartments and rent them. 50000 dollars is quite a lot of money in my country. I would make about 300 dollars a month from the rent and even if that is not enough to live on, it would be a welcome extra.

That's sounds great! Here in the US, or where I'm at anyway, 50,000 barely gets you an acre of land. Yikes! But it would make a good down payment. Thanks for replying. :-)

I would probably pay off my student loans and car, keep some for fun money and put the rest toward our mortgage.

I would put 30,000 down on a house. I would use 15,000 to pay for school for my husband and I. I would use the other 5,000 to buy a HDTV and some new furniture for the house I bought!

We come from a middle class family and till date we dont own a house of our own. My elder brother and sister had to stop their studies after graduation to earn for the family.still things are not going too well.My father lost too much money in his buiseness which finally he discontinued. It is my first priority in life to buy a house for my family.So i'll also do the same. (I am here to help my family as much as I can.)
