How should i spend my $1000 dollars?
I recently came into a thousand bucks, but i'm having trouble figuring out how to spend it.

Scenerio #1-  I have two credit cards with 24 and 29 percent interest rates. Both are maxed out at 500 a piece so i could pay them both off an be done with it.

Scenerio #2-  My truck needs new tires and shocks, i dont have to have them right away, but this is probably the only time i will have that kind of extra money to spend on vehicle maintence.

Ohh, what to do... Should i do number one or number 2?   OR, should i do neither and just blow it all on strippers and booze. What would you do if you were in my shoes?

Cracks up at madd! Seriously, you should take 500.00 of that and put 250 on each card, which would knock down the payment requested each month and spend the rest on someone you'd get something back from, say a loved one, a part time girl (winks) then drink alittle. You'll still have 200 or 150 left to buy a video game you like and pay your cable.

If you even knew how much money you're paying in interest alone on those credit cards over time, you wouldn't even be asking this question.

Pay off the credit cards, then take the credit cards and get new tires, it's a win, win situation.

take 1/2 and pay off that 29% credit card FIRST!, then go get your shocks done, you can live with the tires in their condition now, if your shocks are bad, your an accident waiting to happen
