Got $5k to spend on myself - what should I do?

[Mule3006Elk]

Donate to a good cause > tax write off.
That would cover the last of my student loan.
I'll send you my Venmo.

You're financial solid so pick something off your bucket list and have fun.

Put it on Broncos to win the Super Bowl. +800, for a nice $40k
Then your opportunities open a bit.

I’m pretty traditional, but I think the wooden RokStok looks great.

If you don’t like that, get a Sako, suppressor, and nice optic.

But, at my age, I would put it towards a course or starting a new hobby where I might meet interesting people.

This really is one of the best looking RSS's I've seen on here. I wonder if there's someone around who could make a leather suppressor cover out of the one that's on there...

If you don’t already know what to spend it on, and it sounds like you don’t, I would save it until you do.

Hunting/fishing trip, shooting class, visit some friends, snag a suppressor or two.

Preach brother. I was once told, the fun is in wanting. Once you have, you have all the problems that come along with it

You’re talking about women, right?

I remember someone asked this question in the past and @Swamp Fox said something to the affected of;

"Spend $2k on women and the rest on Binocular harnesses."

Still member laughing my ass off at that.

LOL ... I'm just glad I can contribute something useful around here every once in a while ...

@TXHunt had $5-6000 to go toward a hunt and was looking for ideas a while back.

My actual advice (still true today, including inflation adjustments) was this:

I'd spend $2000 on some type of doctor-recommended conditioning program and I'd blow the rest on women and binocular harnesses ...

Apparently a lot of people felt this was helpful ... LOL

Here's the thread:

Personally, I would put $4,000 towards debts - student loans and credit cards for me. Then I would use the other $1000 for a DIY fall hunt and bring your wife along. Stay a night in a hotel on the way home and get some good food.

If no debts and everything else is squared away then I would put that towards a hunt for an animal you havent hunted before. Sounds like you are out west, so maybe a whitetail hunt.
