What would you do with 40k?
Gramps passed away and left me 40k. I'm not sure what to do with it and I know it could go really fast. I won't be buying preps or metals or a new car or starting a business. Would it be so bad to just travel and have fun for a year? Do you think I'd have any regrets if I go that route? What really is there to invest in these days. I'm not patient, life can be short and I want to enjoy it now. I have no real career, just menial jobs, thought about going back to school for a bit but I've already a B.A. In liberal arts and not crazy about going back. Thought about maybe permaculture?

What would you do?

I would buy some gold, lay it on my bed and role around for a little bit. Then i would throw it in a safe and never tell anyone about it.

Well he'd probably say invest it in an IRA or something. Not really my style. I don't have debt really and I'm ok with my 15 yr old car.

Re: What would you do with 40k?
If you use it wisely, you could use that money to build a house so that you never have to worry about mortgage or rent as long as you live there. This will of course mean that you have to do the work yourself, but it can be done. If you spend it all in a year then you will always regret not being smarter about how you used the money. Believe me, been there, done that. The second time around, however, I was not so fickle.

Interesting because I was reading a lot of people feel like they have to spend it right way but they should really sit on it till a sure thing type if scenario comes up and could actually make them money.

Thinking about day trading too but I've been burned doing that. I like to think I'm wiser now though.

I had my heart trampled on by my ex boyfriend recently. I really feel like just going out into the world and having pure unadulterated fun. Pretend I'm rich for a little while. My life has been so boring for years.

Re: What would you do with 40k?
Either sit on it or buy land or a house. Whatever you do, dont blow it on something that'll be gone in a year or two. 40k isn't a huge amount, but it does have the potential to be a long term, life-changing amount if you are smart about how you use it.

I actually have a little bit of land. But food won't make me much money. If I decide to travel I won't be around to tend a garden, might be for next year.
