    Talking WWMD won $5k in the lotto! WOOT WOOT!1!!

    so i just got my check back from the lotto office and it's legit! 5 fukin K on a 5 dolla Cash Stash ticket!

    Question is, now what to do with it?

    i gotta couple things that I need to pay off, cc bills etc that will leave me with around 4 grand all said and done. Is that enough to invest? buy more lotto tix? Get a stupid coffee can muffler for my xB?

    srsly tho, I was thinking of getting into rafting this summer and maybe getting on at an outfitter somewhere for the summer. what kind of gear would I need to bring for a job like that? what would be the best use of this cash to make my summer rock?

    some have said I should donate to the gulf cleanup which i took part in this past year, maybe I'll give them some, but i gotta gets mine!

    WWMD? with the cash? any smart investments out there?

    Take a long trip to somplace you've always wanted to go but never thought you could afford. Bring a camera.

    Or put a grand in the bank for a rainy day and invest the rest in hookers and blow.

    Pay off your debt, take a vacation, and stash some for a rainy day. You're young. Odds are, you'll blow it soon enough.

    If you're wanting to do some rafting this summer you better get on it. Interviews are happening this month with the company I'm trying to get with. You'll need a pfd and helmet, and the training is like $450 or somewhere thereabouts. You'll also need to stash some money to live off of until you get enough river time to start guiding.

    Or just spend it all on hookers and blow. It's what Jesus would do.

    Blow it all on a body kit for that Scion of yours. Best investment you could make.

    If you have a loan for the Scion, put it towards that. Rocket science I know.
    I think you have me confused with someone who is far less awesome.

    Dude! You should use that $5000 to open up a Roth IRA. As fate would have it, that's the max you can contribute in 2011. It's totally a sign...

    Now, here's the important part: When you turn 60, withdraw the money and put all those tax-free earnings towards the most EPIC cruise ever! Bridge and [saggy] boobs. You'll thank me later.

    Actually... wait... you're like 13, right? Never mind, I'll probably be dead.
