      No, I don't - I just looked. (I looked in my other pocket, too, just in case).

      I have $237 in my pocket - and that's only because I'm on my way out to run errands and fill up with gas.

      By the time I return home I'll be lucky to have $37 left.

      It isn't right - what have you done with my $5,000???

    If I had $5,000 in my pocket to spend, I would be booking a holiday. Maybe a nice cruise or something? You can never go on too many holidays. Definitely the best way to spend any spare money you might have

    Why ask for suggestions, when your sig file clearly indicates "I Earn 21% to 30% Interest".

    Head to a bank and put it in my account. I don't need $5000 in cash

    Probably buy the new ps4 and save the rest until I figure out what to do with it

        $5,000?

        I would never have $5,000 in my pocket. But if you mean have instant access to five grand.....it's not that much money.
        Make a mortgage payment. Buy a little more inventory for my store.

        The $5,000 figure shows what you consider a good amount of money. My figure is different.

    On a somewhat related subject:

    Is there a better feeling than putting on a jacket you haven't worn since last winter and discovering money in the pocket?

    Obviously there are better feelings, but usually they involve taking your clothes off, rather than putting them on.

    Still, the one I described above is pretty high on the list though.

      What's your figure because I'm guessing more but I might be wrong?

      Anyway, if I had $5000 in my pocket I'd put it in the bank to replace what I spent last week. To me $5000 is a good amount of money, but then I'm over the moon if I find 50p.

        I remember when making $5,000 a month was thought of as a lot of money. It doesn't really help for me to give you a figure. It's more, but any figure I give is going to help nobody.

        But most credit cards have a limit of 5 grand or more. It's not that hard to make $5,000.

        I occasionally have an MLM person ask me something like "What would you do with an extra $500 a month?" And I say "I wouldn't even know if I had an extra $500 a month."


        I didn't mean to brag. Most smart business owners have occasionally made $5,000 on a good day.

    I would be tempted to use it for survival money for the next few months. On the other hand, you could invest it. Nonetheless, it would be better to use it for survival money, so any extra cash coming in can be invested. However, sometimes it's better to use "other people's money" totally, and not rely on your own cash for investments.

    Another cool idea, is just to say "to heck with it" and take a cool beach vacation.
