    I would probably pay off my car

    but what if as a stipulation of receiving this "free" money you were not allowed to pay bills with it or save it, what would you buy?

    I would get the following:

    LASIC surgery. Sick of messing with these contacts and glasses.

    Golf membership for the next two years to my local club.

    Bigger TV for the gameroom.

    Video game system (PS2, X BOX, etc)

    Surround sound speakers for my game room.

    What about ya'll?

    LASIC surgery first and foremost.

    Then help one of my kids buy a home.

    If I couldn't use it for bills I'd probably blow it all on comic books or a year's worth of supplements.

    - Air hockey table
    - Widescreen, HD, side-by-side PIP, kickass television
    - French doors for back room of house
    - Decorative railing for front porch
    - Lots and lots of candy
    - A desperately needed vacation

    P.S. Mulder and No Chance -- I had the eye surgery done in 1992 (back when it was RK and they still used a scalpel instead of lasers). It was one of the best things I ever did. Before the operation I was blind as a bat. Now I've had perfect vision for the past 11 years. Sometimes I even forget that I used to wear glasses (until I see old photos). :)

    I'd buy that $7,000 engagement ring my girlfriend wants. The the rest would go toward my schooling.

    I'm surprised it took so long for someone to mention season tickets. I know that would be my choice.

    $10,000 = 500 lap dances at Treasures (assuming one pays in cash, only 400 with credit card)

    Average song length at Treasures: 4 minutes

    Total minutes of lap dancing: 2,000

    Hours of lap dancing: 33 and 20 minutes

    The problem is that Treasures closes at 2:00am. I'd need to go to Vegas to get 33 *consecutive* hours of lap dancing. I'd start at around 5:00pm on a Friday night and then get up and leave at 2:20am on Sunday morning.

    I'd likely invest it, but if I had to spend the money, I would:
    1. trade in my boat and get a bigger one
    or
    2. Build a real shooting range in my backyard that was enclosed and weatherproof
    or
    3. Add a waterfall and palm trees to our swimming pool

    Dare I ask...

    How do you pay for a lap dance with a credit card? Do you just slide the magnetic strip between her...

    Aw nevermind.

    I'm sure if you showed up and just handed somebody $10,000 cash at Treasures you'd get more than lap dances, as well as more lap dances per dollar anyways.

    I bet it would buy a week's worth of dances.

    Most likely, this all would cost more than $10000 combined.
