What would you do with 10K?
Imagine you're coming into $10K. For whatever reason. Lottery, inheritance, settlement, etc. What would you do with it?

Re: What would you do with 10K?
Our CC debt is a little high right now, so that would get paid first, around $5k (don't judge, a lot of it is Whipped startup).
Then the vet bills we're still paying off - around $1100.
I'd probably take another $3000 and pay off one of my little student loans.
The remaining ~$2000 would probably go in savings.
Pay off my CC - which is only $600
Register for the last class I need to take
Put 5K into a college fund for Charlie
Invest the rest for DH & I
We'd probably put $7500 of it in savings. Down payment savings sucks.
H wants a sectional for the living room, so we'd buy that, and a really awesome sofa bed for the guest/ craft room, a couple of piece of wall art, and a new vacuum. Seems doable for $2500.
Stand up for something you believe in.
We'd probably put half of it into our "house account" which is for our down payment and savings for home repairs/upgrades once the house is ours.
The other half would be a down payment for a new car for Jay since his croaked right before we left for vacation. We're borrowing a car from my mom for now and it would be nice to be able to get our own second car again sooner rather than later!
We have some CC debt right now too, due to dental stuff and home repairs (our a/c going out right at the beginning of the summer, our dryer going out, etc.) I would pay that off. That would be about $6k.
I'd probably use the rest as a down payment on a new car.
I would put 5K into a savings account for the little man and the rest into our checking. Ahhh yes and maybe a sectional instead of our two mismatched consignment store couches in the rec room....
I'd pay off my credit card, put a big chunk toward my student loans and put the rest into savings.
Pay off the credit cards (between all four of them, about $3500).
The rest would either go directly to a house down payment (Danny wants to move) or a new car for me.
Pay off our one CC then just save the rest, maybe buy something small we both have been wanting
Pay off my remaining CC debt and student loans, and probably put a majority into savings for the upcoming schooling we will need to pay for. This would probably equal close to $5000.
Probably start a savings account for Samma with a decent chunk of it.
Put some towards lanscaping our yard in the spring because it needs it so bad.
And then the rest I would use as a down payment for a new car.
