Easy. Second hand electric car with a big range.
I would buy cheap electronic parts to build something like a Risc-v handheld(or PDA) computer to replace a smartphone with easily replaceable parts. This might help me figure out how to work with mipi dsi displays and how to write drivers for them. :) And besides that, I would stock up on canned food and maybe a solar panel capable of charging a laptop, for example.
can I just throw it on my mortgage?
Technically you’re using it to buy a house, so I guess that qualifies as spending it?
Seriously this. Like imagine taking a chunk out of principal like that, you would save thousands in interest!!!
I actually did do that, the advantage of having rich grandparents. It’s amazing how once you get a bit of money the system just throws advantages at you. Capitalism really is broken.
Because I was able to get together enough money to be able to buy a house and put down quite a lot in collateral, my mortgage repayments aren’t very much, considerably less than I was paying monthly in rent, even when you take into account that the rent included water bills.
New computer and I’d get my car overhauled at a specialist and there goes like, 15k. Or more if my car has issues I don’t know about
Probably a car
How is this even a question. If you have a mortgage you pay off your mortgage, or at least as much as they let you, anything else would go on a new car.
I would like to get my house renovated but that’s going to take more than a day.
Definitely debt.
Like 15 abortions. God I love abortions.
I do not understand that, in my country abortions are free
(ok, not actually free. You need to pay 15 euro for the blood test, a 30 euro tax, 2 euro for the hospital parking fee and around 10 euro to buy the painkiller or antibiotics after the operation)
Dude, I wish I lived in a civilized country. My cancer treatment would have cost somewhere in the range of $5 million without insurance. Healthcare is a human right
oooOOohh look at mr big spender here with their fancy thousand dollar abortions.
Would make the world a better place than any other kind of charity, tbh.
Am I allowed to just buy a different currency like Euro or Bitcoin?
Does the government know I have it? Because it will cut off my disability, my medical, food stamps, and I’ll loose the ability too live anymore.
But of course I would spend it on basic necessities if the government won’t know about it, stock pile of non perishable foods, toilet paper, fixing the broken shit around my place (as much as my landlord allows) maybe a new bed that’s not 10 years old.
It’s not real that much but it would help my quality of life for a bit longer I guess
No one wants to donate it to charity of my choosing?
(What if the charity is just a thin veil over my own account)
20k is one medium home remodel (one deck, Hall bath, or painting the outside), half the price of my sisters powerchair, or paying down half remaining on my car
There is no reason for a powered wheelchair to cost as much as an expensive car
For that money I’d expect to be stomping around town in a fucking mechsuit.
There’s no GOOD reason an MRI should cost $1500 either.
edit: i realize you probably weren’t judging, my bad for the attack dog
i mean… there is when she is completely non ambulatory, needs a specialized back to support her upright, requires tilt relieve pressure point throughout the day, and has large tires so she can go outside in the dirt without getting whiplash from the bumps. A privilege, sure, but I think its well deserved
without specializations it could probably run at 12k, and insurance wont pick up anything above basic
Shit I don’t think you realize how little $20,000 really is. Hell there’s very few new cars that even cost 20 grand. I could have it gone in less than 5 minutes.
My daughter says pokemon cards
