Buy a gun lots of ammo. Hide in your house. Have your groceries delivered. If no one comes to rob you, incl. suits, in one year you are safe to spend it...

Side note: watch out for new BFFs.

congrats. I could put that in the bank and like magic GONE.

Some of the best advise it seems like I never take is this: There's no better investment than paid off stuff.
To put it in prospective...say you owe on your truck and bike, and make monthly payments of $400 and $250, respectively. If you pay off the truck, you're now making $400 a month (as opposed to SPENDING $400 a mth). If you took that $400 that you're already accustomed to spending on the truck pmt, and applied it to the $250 a mth that you're already accustomed to spending on the bike pmt, you're now making almost triple the pmt per mth on the bike (considering the interest you won't have to pay), and would have it paid off in a third of the time you would have. Most people would say pay credit cards--my feeling is it's easy to run them back up, and better to have something tangible paid off than something non tangible paid down.
On the other hand--if the truck & bike are paid for, and credit card debt isn't there, go to Vegas and spend it on hookers and booze...you may come home broke, but you'll keep the memories for a lifetime...

Pay off as many bills as you have,if you have anything left buy H.D. stock and have a bit of patience with the stocks it'll pay off in the long run.Don't waste it.
