You're 18 again and have $10,000. What do you do?
 
I didn't have a good lap top when I was 18 because it was obsolete,also had a good car that lasted me those years. SO I would have bought a better computer. I did have a job, so the money would have helped me move into that nice rental house I was looking at way back when. Also, would have bought a bigger tv set and paid off some bills that I owed at the time. :)
 
Based on how I was at 18 that would have been the worse thing for me, it would have destroyed me having that kind of money
 
I'm already 18... So why not be 18 again. lol!

I would spend money on a car, camera gear and boost up my blog.

SAVE it.  I got my schooling paid for, so I didn't need it for that, but I would've put it in a savings account and tried to add to it every month (I'm boring, even at 18).
 
Given it to my Dad. The military doesn't pay much and he had to sacrafice a lot to get me the things I needed. It would be his turn to get the things HE needed.
 
Money wouldn't have helped me any, so give it to my parents.
 
Buy baby stuff. Had a pregnant girlfriend back then.

We still managed though.

So... maybe I would have went to a trade school or something and got some certifications to land me some better jobs. :dontknow:
 
take my driving test, buy a nice car and get up the nerve to ask out Juliet Holland who i always fancied at school but i was painfully shy back then...that was over 30 years ago

I'll bet you could buy a way better car with $10,000 than you could today.
