Double bass pedal. First and foremost...
Then... Buffing out my instruments, getting a home studio of sorts rigged... Save some for retirement, pay off my university fees, invest some in low risk low interest investments, buy a car, a better phone...
I guess I would do very mundane things. Some people would probably be flashy and get some sports car or something, use up all the money, but not me... I'd probably also spend a lot on my sister, I'd spoil my parents, my friends... I'd save a lot of it, I think. Donate some. Put a good amount into music, and my computer, and making my life easier... I think I'd probably use some of it to arrange trips to see my scattered high school best friends, and you know... See some of the world.
I would also spend some on crossing items of my bucket list. And spend a good bit on getting to that place I wanna be at when I'm 29. Definitely buy property, even if just to rent it out. Uhm... Start a trust fund. I'd probably also purchase the home I went through highschool in under my parents' name. Even if they don't end up living there, at least the house would be ours. Invest in the stock market. Randomly buy some artist's EP on bandcamp for a stupid amount.
Money... Is just a tool, to me. I don't particularly want all of it, or billions of it... Just enough to live a happy life. Live a good one. Live a comfortable one... Make someone else's life easier, maybe. I don't ever want money to be the goal, just a way to reach it... Chasing wealth has always led to sadness and emptiness...
I might throw one Gatsby party though.
Just because.
Okay, well four days left until day 30. It's been incredible, it's been wonderful... I don't really know why I started... Just was sort of a whim... I didn't keep up with my 30 Day Ab Challenge or my 30 Day Push Up Challenge, so, boo me... And a lot of times I thought, maybe I should give up, but people encouraged me, people said they liked what I wrote, and I feel like that's reason enough to stay up an extra hour or two at night to write for a stupid blog I started on a whim. That's what makes this important to me. And I feel like self-improvement is always a noble goal. And I do feel like I've improved my writing, I feel like I've lifted weight off my shoulders... I feel like I've done a bit more to get me where I want to be. As I said, if you do keep up until day 30, I'll so the juicy announcement or whatever... But thanks for keeping up until this far. And if I inspire anyone to do anything positive with their lives or to even make a small change, I think it's beyond worth it.
Day 26: If you had $1 000 000 to spend, how would you spend it?
