I've got like $5000 burning a hole in my pocket...

There is nothing I want though.. .

My investments are fine, my savings account is fat and my checking account is well balanced, so don't come with any of that.

This is a material item thread.

An import PSP?

Some rare videogame?

1952 Topps Mickey Mantle that I will own someday?

A bottle of Oxycontin?

You have kids don't you? Why not save it for them for when they get to college? :)

I wish I had the same problem. My problem is kind of on the reverse where there is so much I want but no money to get it with. Consider yourself lucky.

$5,000 can buy a lot of peepshows.

Unfortunately, adult boutiques open only from 9 PM to 3 AM.

Help me pay off my college loans.

damn, that's a good one

I'm thinking of not paying off mine because my degree is about as worthless as our president and his ideas for rejuvenating the economy

I have a daughter, and her education is taken care of :)

I just took her to TRU and bought her a bunch of "Dora" stuff...

Buy a mint/new copy of every Castlevania game ever released. Import and Domestic (fuck the UK versions).

Buy every system needed to play them.

Take some pictures for us.

Sell the collection on eBay.

Take a vacation somewhere, and enjoy life for a while ;)

Oops, it's material, nevermind.

buy a lambretta or vespa.

lambretta TV175 is a choice ride for sure. and still reasonably affordable. SX200 is tops, but if you can even find one, it'll cost a lot more than 5G's...

ohio may not be the best place to own a scooter, but when the weather's nice, it'll be well worth it...

I 2nd this. It's a big world and you're only on it once. Try to travel as much as you can.

You should hold a contest of some kind and buy the winner the game of his choice.

Become a Big Tymer, assuming you have never done so before?

I don't think $5000 is enough to be an NGF executive, even.
