Ok new thought going through my head, My new job comes with a $30,000.00 sign on bonus! Yes $30,000.00 just to take the job. And I am still crying over looser men? WTF!! I have ALWAYS done the right and responsible thing, ALWAYS!! I know I should payoff some things, put it in savings and help with my son's school costs. Probably will but... help me think of some interesting options for spending the money. Forget "the right things". My turn to live! Hmmm what to do. After all it is free moeny I am going to make enough to pay my bills so help me dream and consider more irresponsible, fun options. I deserve to at least consider some of them, don't I?

Kikki, me and my kids do that every year. They take some of there own money and some I would spend on them and we go shopping and drop the stuff off. It is our favorite part of Christmas. This thread is cheer me up thoughts. This is dream land money spending!! This is forget about what is right, just selfish indulgence. Enjoy, what would you do??

Ok...in that case, go and spend a WHOLE DAY at a spa and get pampered to no end. Get the body scrub from head to toe and then go to a strip club, have some beers,...(omg, did I say that) and pass around a dollar here or there. (You may find a couple that are worth more than $1)..but any how make sure they can do this:

Come see me!!!

PS Remember - even though FL has no state tax the Federal tax on a bonus is 25% and you have to pay FICA as well (7.65% SS and MEDC) - so you should get around 67% of that.

Still enough to come see me!!!

Save two thirds of it. You never know when you will need it, and you will kick yourself in the ass if you spend all of it. Use the remaining funds to do something nice for yourself or your family.

Hey Bren - maybe you and I can pull a Thelma and Louise (don't ask me - I didn't even see the movie - did I get the names right?)!!

Good for you! I know you've earned everybit of rewards you may get in return. You'll do what's right for you. It's fun to dream even though you may not follow through with it. Do indulge yourself a little bit, you've deserved it!

You can always buy me a Dooney (is that how you spell it?) purse. That is fun and exciting. Yes...yes

Bank some (c'mon, you'll regret it if you blow all of it), but definitely do something fun!

Take a trip someplace you've always wanted to go and have a blast! Of course, we want details!

Happy for you!!!!!
