the pocket/hole megathread. (was $200 dollars buring a hole in my pocket)

Sign in to disble this ad
I have two hundred dollars in my pocket and want to buy something. I have a fender bass and an ibanez 65 watt amp. Might get an acoustic 100 watt amp. Could use recording equiptment. Don't really want a new bass. Want something fun too maybe. Like a new game system or ipod. What would you guys use it for. Last big purchase was a $270 dollar bass last fall. Btw, im not a spoiled rich kid. I earned all my money working at a restaraunt.

Take the $200 out of your pocket and put it into a flame resistant container until you find something you REALLY want.

You're in the US right?

With a $200 deposit you could prolly get a 30-yr mortgage for a house worth a few mill.

put it in your savings account. Don't spend it. Keep working, keep saving, buy either a custom bass or a used car, somehting that you'll actually use for at least a decade.

Couldn't smush Rush's discography into 5 measley gigs. And you NEED all of that...er, more than that. Expand your horizons some. Find something unexpected.
