$114.17 in my PayPal account, what should I buy?
Hi all,

Like found money! Hadn’t checked PayPal in awhile and lo and behold, I have a balance of $114.17.

So, what do you get the guy that has everything?

Doesn’t have to be cycling related.

Go!!!

This will show you how old I am...my first wife’s ( I’ve had many ) family had season tickets to the Lakers when it was Magic, Kareem, Worthy, Green, Cooper, etc.

Was great fun to go back then. Lost interest after we divorced...

Oh, that's old? My dad took me to a game in Buffalo where Kareem was wearing a Bucks jersey, as was a point guard named Oscar Robertson. Some kid named McAdoo was playing for Buffalo.

Donate $14.17 to the forum, and transfer the remaining $100 to your bank account. Squander it on booze/dinner.

I'd invest it. Today you bought 5% more shares of an S&P fund than you did a week ago.

Other than that I'd probably buy a few rolls of your favorite bar tape. It's sort of a consumable and has a tangible influence on bike ride quality.

Otherwise donate it to a worthwhile cause. I donated a few bucks today to Wikipedia. It's not perfect but it's a worthwhile reference tool for many things.

Save it for when you need a new set of tires.
