    Probably just throw it in the bank / Invest it.

    I know not the most exciting answer but there you are.

      So for like 600 months. That’s 50 years for a decent house. When 50 years roll around, it’ll be far more than that so you’ll have to keep saving but you’ll never get there.

        Eh, you can find some decent ones in my country for about 150K, which is about 12 and a half years. But tbh yeah, the current housing market is just sad.

      That’s still over £850/$1090 per month. Nothing to sneeze at.

    Probably find a way to waste it without affecting anything.

    I make 1000€ per month more than 5 years ago. Didn’t affect anything. You always seem to increase your monthly expences with equal ammount. Buy slightly better clothes, more expensive food, get a new pet, etc. and it all just disappears.

    Fix my teeth and go to med school. In that order

    Privat med school in Germany costs a bit over 12k a year depending so I’d just work and save for a year or two first, then enroll

    I’d rent an apartment closer to my work. I’d also pay off my car and probably get a new one. Maybe a new mustang or something like that.

    It’d definitely be enough to let me live comfortably, at least comfortably enough to really enjoy my hobbies.

    10k in dental work needed. 2k in car repairs needed. Whole wardrobe of 10yo clothes desperately needs replacing.

    Probably 50% on the car and 50% on new clothes

    I’d be able to pay off the debt collectors pretty quick. Then I’d be able to get a car, one that doesn’t feel like it will die at any moment. I might even have enough leftover to throw a hundred or so into a savings account.

    Right now, none of that is possible. Eventually I’d like to be able to make enough to do some of those things, but that day is pretty far off.
