Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

(except the fact that if I cut video games, alcohol, and eating out daily, I wouldn't need a loan)

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Camden, NJ? Most people try to move out of there.. $125k gives you enough to do that. Why would you stay/go there?

What charity would you give to?

Camden, AR, apparently the only place you can buy a nice home for under $125K...

Actually, come to think of it, if I just got a totally free $125K handed to me, I'd buy a building downtown and open some kind of business and put an apartment in the back of it...but most of them probably need at least a little remodeling. It would eat up the whole check probably.

As for charitable giving, a local cause would be preferable.

At 298, can Google really go any higher? Most analysts are no longer reccommending this as a buy..

Enter the AD-FREE zone

Is the $125,000 tax free?

If it is...$25,000 into Roth IRA right off the bat. I'd put another $20,000 into savings. Probably get me laser eye surgery so I don't have to wear glasses anymore. I guess the rest I'd use to go back to school for my Masters. That'll probably cost $30,000...

I'd also give $2,000 to the surfriders foundation. The rest? Take a vacation to Japan and Australia and move out of my house and rent an apartment.

Splitting is useless if it doesn't go any higher.

Don't confuse Kaak. I want him to have a clear mind when I sell him my seminar on how to make money by writing naked puts.
