I'd spend it on paying off my debt.
ReplyDeleteI would give a chunk to diabetes research since my little boy is diabetic and I would also use some for a down payment on a house. Could use the write off!
ReplyDeleteI would pay off some debt and get my MBA!
ReplyDeleteSome of it would go to pay for college for my daughter and some of it for my new deck in my backyard!
ReplyDeleteI would invest 80% in my business and give 20% to http://www.Busted Foundation.org ;-) Business investment is often overlooked- whether it be hiring an extra hand to double your productivity or investing in new equipment or even professional training. The more we can put into our business then the greater chance of success.
ReplyDeleteMy 84 year old Mom had a stroke this past January and can no longer take care of herself very well. I would build an apartment above my house that had an elevator so my Mom could live with me instead of in a Board and Care. My entire family lives with me now so it would make all of us (but especially me) happy to do that for her so she wouldn't be so lonely all day, every day, for the rest of her life.
ReplyDeleteplease mark this post with my name in case I win- dyn2sr5@earthlink.net... https://openid.aol.com/opaque/614b8f98-b24b-11e0-b297-000bcdcb8a73 it wouldn't let me login w/my facebook account.
ReplyDeleteI would pay off my home equity line of credit.
ReplyDeleteLet's see, mortgage debt, student loan, credit cards, college for the boys. So many expenses so little money. But I'd still take it.
ReplyDeleteIf I got a 50k refund. I'd put 10k into online advertising. 5k into some direct mail, and save the rest.
ReplyDeleteConvert it to pennies and play Scrooge McDuck. (Anyone remember him?)
ReplyDeleteI would donate half of the 50 grand to The Heart Touch Project. A non-profit educational service organization giving compassionate touch to the elderly, children, Men, and Women who have the HIV and Aids virus.
ReplyDeleteIf I got a $50K refund check, the first thing I'd do would be to call Michael Watson at Robert Hall & Associates, to ask if there'd been some sort of mistake by the IRS! Assuming Michael confirmed that the check was legitimate, I'd probably put most of it aside for my kids' education.
ReplyDeleteI'd put it in an account for anyone who needed any help and pretend like I didn't have it and save it only for emergencies like if my Mom needed more money for her care or whatever else would come up.
ReplyDeleteI'm not going to win an ipod Shuffle with this answer, but the truth is that I would spend it on plastic surgery for me!
ReplyDeleteI'd pay off my credit cards, donate 10% to various charities, and then splurge on a fantastical vacation....Europe or S.East Asia is calling.
ReplyDeleteI'm a single mom who works very hard and doing ok with two kids that have no father.. Im kind of both...I would help my mom get a better place, she lives on 3rd floor with no elevator knee problems, diabetic, bad eyes, but happy every day.. She makes fun how on each floor she seats on the stairs and rests...I would make her and my self happier by getting her a better living..and hopefully will have bit change to go see her..she leave over seas..yes that would be nice!
ReplyDeleteI would ask Bob Wynn to invest it for me!
