snowboard_freak 0 Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 Hmmm, thats just over $AU14 000, so I'd go on a big long world wide holiday, trying to get in lots of boarding as well as some nice tropical destinations with good waves! Link to post Share on other sites
nekobi 0 Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 why waste your money on a car?? you can sometimes get them for free here! I'm with zwelgen and sf- nice holiday somewhere. ahhh, i can't wait til golden week. Link to post Share on other sites
dale#1 1 Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 Why waste money on a car? Erm, coz I want a nice new car, not some banger. If you can tell me a place where I can get a good new shiny car for free, I'm all ears! Link to post Share on other sites
nekobi 0 Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 true the free ones are usually older and a piece of crap, but really though, what's the point of a flashy car? unless you are trying to make up for something you are lacking. my piece of tin gets me where I'm going and the money i saved has been well spent elsewhere.

zwelgen 0 Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 Yeah Im with you neks. I wouldnt spend my money on a car, esp not in this country where you cant appreciate it, cant hit the open road just ugly highways with ugly views and stupid speed limits. Wait till youre somewhere good where you can make the most of what your spanking flash car can do before you fork out the moolah. Not driving shitty windy potholed roads with constant roadworks and too many traffic lights driving you beserk. Can you tell I hate driving in Japan? Link to post Share on other sites
Markie 0 Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 I would buy a ring for the cat that I love. Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 I would buy a comfy bed. No, only joking, I would add it to my investments. [wanna feel sick?? when I arrived here in Japan my employer said, hmmm, new to Japan hey? Here is Y1.5 million, go and buy some new stuff, no need to produce reciepts. Wanna feel even sicker?? Before I arrived in Japan I knew he was going to do this, so I spent most of the money on new furniture before I came here, which the company kindly shipped over for me. The remainder of the dough I spent on electricals in Japan as Australian white goods are no use here. Cant recall what I spent the balance on]. Link to post Share on other sites

enderzero 0 Posted April 14, 2003 Share Posted April 14, 2003 If someone told me I had to spend the money while I was here in Japan I would get the sweetest dopest apartment for two months at the top of some highrise in a great neighborhood in downtown tokyo. That would about take care of it I imagine (if not more) but if I had anything left I would throw a big party at my new pad. Yes ladies, the view from the bedroom is even nicer...
