What To Do With The 20 Grand

[sam5709]

well my nanna left me a bit of money to spend on what makes me happy the most when she passed away, hence why im not spending the money on investments etc

i was pretty set on an s15 but after reading bulk info on them i dont know if i want one lol so the next idea was to think about getting an r34 gtt, they look aggressive and get decent power out of them, or another idea i was thinking about was just putting all the money straight into the car i have now to make it faster

i still have a bit of time to decide so your input would be great.

and yes i know, why should i be asking everyone for their opinion when im going to be the one driving the car and spending the money etc but just tell me what you think anyway

[Stinky Rooster]

Sam, Do the sensible thing and invest it

[alpinestars]

dude invest or put in an interest account and save its not worth it ive spent $30k + and still havent achieved what i wanted yet

[Medium Dave]

Travel. Go see europe / asia / guatemala or wherever

[r33skyflyin]

hey 20k later, and i wish id invested my money, rather then all engine work. do the smart thing, 20k wont finish the car off anyways, and you will need to continue to put more money into it to ever finish it.

DONT spend it on a f**king car.

[dan_the_man]

i added an "invest the money" option to ur poll.

seriously dont just blow it on a car. u have the chance to actually make some money.

[J_R32]

alot of us on here are in either mid or hell even early 20's. there's a time and place for everything..and with the housing situation set to worsen if u listen to news and crap...i'd agree with dan. invest it. there's plenty of time later to play with cars

my 2c

Sam, Alot of us here have spent huge money on our cars, and while we all love cars, I'm sure in hindsight we probably wouldn't do the same thing again. Learn from our mistakes, and invest it.

[Topaz]

I would look at house prices and consider my options, if its too soon for moving out and your pay can't meet repayments invest it and wait a few months/years

Don't put this sort of money into your car in 1 hit, its not a good way to use 'free' money

[sam5709]

mm driving to reece had me thinking, the way it is now i cant make up my mind, im guessing i would probably end up saying ohh i wish i didnt go with this decicion blah blah blah, im not really going to be looking at a house, but as of now mayb just leave it in the bank till i can make a decent resonable decision, and when i think about it the car i have now is decent enough dont ya think lol

[dan_the_man]

yes ur car is fine. in fact i want to marry it

good decision

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Sam, Yep, leave it in the bank on a term deposit, so you don't access it all the time, and you'll make some decent interest

[Bok boK GuN]

Spending all of it on car would make u happy now.. but few years later i guess u will change ur mind that is, unless 20grand to u is just like the market value of 20 dollars..then its a different story

[sam5709]

yeh just thinking about it some more, the easiest decision is to just leave it lol

[alpinestars]

buy shares

go halves with your parents on a deposit on an investment property

go to uwa and study

[Shayde]

So glad there is so much sense here

Put it into a savings account and let the money accumulate interest. Just don't touch it.

Or actually invest it, but don't throw it into a money pit.

[sam5709]

LOL @ UWA and study, not for me, not realli my thing
