What would you do with $10,000 dollars? Romney obviously can be very casual with that kind of money

[demtenjeep]

but most can't.

I have 4 bills that I could pay off. The return would be that I would have the freedom to put $500 bucks monthly back into the economy somehow; be it helping out my brothers and sisters which in turn would put even more money back into the economy or remodel my home. I could also help my daughter so she wouldn't have to work so hard while attending Nursing School.

$10,000 may be chump change to Romney, but it would do a LOT of people (and the economy) a lot of good.

1. I might use it towards a new car.

[liberal N proud]

2. It would make a little dent in my daughters student loan.

Or I could replace my broken down old car, something with heat preferably

[demtenjeep]

3. the effect for most of us would also be putting the money back into the economy

which would benefit EVERYONE

[gejohnston]

4. I could

restore my son's car, replace needed parts in my daughter's car, fix a leak in my truck, pay off a couple of bills, and/or remodel the house.
the hard part would be picking out which projects.

5. Pay for the new roof myself

instead of having to take out a loan.

6. so many things

I'd like to pay a big chunk towards my car note. The car needs registration and oil change etc. Clothes and household items are needed. Cats need to go for a check up at the vet. I'd like to do some things around the house.... just off the top of my head. 10000 dollars would do a whole lot for me right now.

7. I think a lot of folks feel the same

8. Pay my rent for the next year.

And have money left over.

9. $10,000 would allow me to change careers

I would like to be a skin care specialist, for which you need a license that requires $5000 in schooling. Add in $3000 for living expenses while in school and while getting established, and a couple grand for equipment (skin care equipment is not cheap) and $10,000 would just about do it.

10. if someone gave me 10k Id donate it. all of it.

[demtenjeep]

11. thats really awesome

what are your favorite places to donate to?

[rdking647]

13. Austin Pets Alive

[Abin Sur]

12. Since I don't have any debts, I'd treat $1,000 of it as "play" money, and put the rest in the bank.

I might put a third of the $9,000 in gold and silver, since I think they're going to go back up.

[Fumesucker]

14. For $10,000 I could go off grid for both my living quarters and my transportation..

Other than gasoline for long trips I'd never have to pay for energy again.

And I'd probably have money left over after doing all that too.

[Quartermass]

15. I'd use it to go to school and get me a degree in computer graphics and then go into cgi for shows.

[Liberal_in_LA]

20. LOL! n/t

[MADem]

17. I know a couple of people who could really use cars as winter hits.

I'd look for two respectable beaters that ran well for them.

That would be such a windfall for so many people; Romney regards it as the appropriate amount for a testosterone-fueled "I know I am right" bet.

Damn. Talk about "out of touch."

[demtenjeep]

18. just think how good the economy would be if we all got that "windfall"

there is where the jobs would be.

Everyone knows that the Middle Class is where the fix should be!

[MrScorpio]

19. A car and some bills

After that, as nice dinner out with the wife

[ellisonz]

21. What $10,000?

Student loans.
