Thread: What to do with my $1,200?

...expecting the deposit early this week of Mnuchin money. Of course, I can't fly anywhere, stay in a resort, or buy an even greater quantity of groceries (the larder is literally overflowing)...what to do?

Bankers, corporations and Wall Street are all accepting donations...

Decisions! !!

Hmmm...
Buy a dry air frier on line
A new Ben Serman shirt
A vintage wine
An art investment
Bitcoin

...I like the idea of purchasing local art, but find most that I've seen derivative and uninteresting...all I have of Thailand is Buddhas (the glass ones are from San Francisco)...I'm open to suggestions, however...

I think I'll use mine to pay taxes if I even get any.

Subliminal irony.
Nice Skkin.

Keep it for a nice weekend away, once all this has finished.

40,000 baht should get an okay 3D2N flight and hotel package to somewhere faraway from the city.

It may even be enough to buy the airline and hotel.

Buy a catapult guard for your balcony cocktail parties.

Le Normandie when it reopens?

Hmmmm...If I do get it ( BTW, my wife being a US citizen is eligible too) we will do an island getaway and charter a boat for just us 2 to go snorkeling and diving. We did that in Phuket area a few years ago. was absolutely wonderful. We were about to catch the boat on a one of those snorkeling tours and I saw like 100 Chinese lining up to get on it. I told my wife F that. We found a guy and chartered his boat for the day and what was nice he took us anywhere we wanted to go versus that canned roped off 4 stops where they all jump in the water and spit and piss.

Of course, my wife will probably want to buy gold...

What's this?


The Hoi Polloi getting recession bailouts from the gubmint!!!!!!
I hope the 1% band together and march down Wall Street to express their disgust!

Give it to me and I will give you a virtual blowjob

Well you will need to define "Top Shelf". Some Top Shelf booze has bottle prices at $300 to $400. That's only 4 bottles. Of course if we are talking about stepping up From Ya Dong and Lao Khao to Sangsom, Gibley's or Absolut you could stock up a few shelves....

Be charitable send it to me.

I've got no burgers to flip.......

I'd invest it in baggies of cocaine.

Agree, I changed my tact on the next sentence and downgraded to half-decent.

I'm kind of on about the 2k-5k baht range of spirits

...some excellent suggestions here: thanks...maybe a bottle or two of Glenmorangie (14 years), dinner at Le Normandie, the virtual offer from YD (SD likes white-man bjs), and a half-dozen of the boys from Bogon's stable...

sounds about right.

Just out of interest, what it SD suggest - you did ask him right?

Yeah that's about my range as well on average. But I do have a few 9k+ bht bottles( few Tequilas and a few Whiskeys). I will be opening one soon as my Birthday is approaching.

You wouldn't wanna share that with Tom and his hoover hooter
