What to do with £10k.

It's funny to think theres people out there like Lowrider007 passing up oppurtunities similar to winning the lottery when i'd give my right arm for them. Funny world, people don't know what they are missing it seems!

I know what the best investment is right now. Infact I'm pretty sure you could turn that into £50k in 10 years (or £100k from £20k investment) through it. But i'm not telling :p

1) Save it for a rainy day
2) Go on a nice holiday
3) Pay off any debts you may have
4) Treat yourself to something you've always wanted
5) Put it in a savings account with high interest

Do you live with your parents and do they provide everything for you? Unless you do then you do need money I'm afraid. Can you be happy without a roof over your head? Happy without food to eat?


No, I live by myself and work for a living and have done ever since I left school, it does'nt mean that I agree with the system though, are you saying happiness was invented when money was also ?, fact is I don't like money and nothing ain't gonna change that, I was born into a society where by you have to use a money for practicly everything you do, just because that is the basis of our society that does'nt mean it is the basis for our own happiness.

So you agree that you were wrong to say that you don't need money to be happy :)

I have £10K sitting in the bank (ISA) earning interest. Sucks but what can you do.

I currently rent in Cambridge, it isn't enough for a deposit to buy a place. Salary isn't great either, just over 20k. Am 25, no spring chicken :).


Any suggestions..

I haven't had time to read through all the posts so I don't know if this has been suggested but I would go travelling and live on a tropical beach in Thailand or India (Goa especialy) for a few years. £10k should let you live very comfortably for at least 3 years and you'll have an amazing time and meet lots of people and make friends for life.

It may sound like "throwing the money away" but you'll have experiences that will last you a lifetime that no plasma screen or car or mortgage (LOL) will ever be able to bring. You can come back to england a few years with a totaly changed perspective on life, start a new job and rent a place and not reach the age of 50 asking yourself "What if..".
