What Would You Do With Disposable Income?

Recommended Posts

I'm not talking about the lottery here...

You are debt free, have every kind of insurance needed, a fully-funded retirement account, and there is still some money left over from your earnings.

What would you do with it?

Is the left over money enough to pay the taxes? I mean, it's a stretch to suggest it would be, but since we're in "hypothetical land..."

Since I have no such thing as disposable income, I think I would spend it if I had it... Maybe I'd buy a Honda Del Sol... or buy a new pair of Doc Martens... ebay!!

weird question
I'd do what I do with my disposable income now, throw it out the door of a plane on an almost weekly basis:)

Throw my rig and a surfboard in a big bag, and sod off round the world for the rest of my life!



You could do that with the lottery... If you stopped working, you would run out of money...

I would buck down and pay for full AFF course; I would, of course, buy a brand new rig; I would buy a comfortable car; I would buy my parents a vacation home in Puerto Rico; and OMG, the list is ENDLESS!!!! :D

P.S. I would first by my SO a new rig 'cause his current one scares me a bit!!! [:/]:)

Travel more exotic places, kick up my donations, replace the roof on my house, maybe jump more, but, well, available time gets in the way of that.

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

Okay. Since the taxes are paid up, I'd do either of the following (I'd actually pay off some student loan, but according to the info, I'm debt free):

1) Put more money into the house, i.e., build that room with white padded walls so I can reminisce about childhood.
2) Pay for a short vacation for the wife to a health spa - I guess she loves them, but hasn't had the chance to do it since ought-three, dag nabbit.
3) Or maybe I'd just blow it all on a few gallons of gas.
4) Or, maybe I'd get some more toys for my little boy.

Yeah, I should have stated that you only have two weeks of vacation a year too. Makes me wonder why people work so much...

With only two weeks' vacation a year I might be tempted to quit that high-paying job and get one that pays less and gives me more time off.

Money isn't everything. It's nice when you don't have enough, but it's only one of the tools.

What would you do with it?



Give it to me. I know what to do with it.
If I could retrieve
the fortune I have spent
Worrying where it came from
not caring where it went
I could live the heady lifestyle
of Playboy magazine
I would see the worldly sights,
that still remain unseen.

I must amount to thousands
I've squandered on the sport
The mark of any jumper
a balance close to nought
But if I had it back
in one financial lump
I'd go south in the winter
and jump and jump and jump.

You should also be very, very suspicious. Because every time things are going well in life, some disaster is lying just around the corner to take it all away...

it would seem that most here might spend thier disposable income on skydiving, cuz i don't know about you , but i'd rather eat than skydive, so money after my bills are paid is disposable........

Oh, I'm not quite there yet... But if things keep going along as they are now, I can see being in that position within ten years...

It's an odd thought to have "enough" after spending a lifetime of struggle.

I'd spend it on my sweety. Unfortunately no disposable income, no sweety. Funny how that works out. :S



Oooooooh!!!... That's how that works... When my ship comes in I'll have a sweety... :P
