Im gonna begin by saying that I am 15years old, or else what im about to say wont really make too much sense lol.
Four years ago, my grandparents decided they wanted to buy land, with a house and farm that were old, dirty and broken down, and fix them up so they could then sell the property for a lot more. We worked constantly on it: sweepign dust and dragging hay out of the barn, chopping down MASSIVE trees and then splitting the wood and stacking it, scraping off wallpaper in the house, moving things around, general cleanup stuff, etc. So my grandparents said that me (who at the time was 11), my little sister and older brother were each going to get one percent of the profit on a house that would sell for at least $1 million CAD. Just a few weeks ago, we finished cleaning up the whole property, and then a few days ago the property was sold. Its crazy that that took us 4 whole years to do !! So anyways, Im about to head out to go to work( i work at a burger joint making fries and cleaning dishes), when my grandma calls my siblings and I over. She gives us a beautiful speech, and then she hands each of us $1,000 in cash( mine came in $20 bills, my brothers in $100s, sisters in $50s). So after thanking her many times and hugs were exchanged, I went off to work. I spent the whole shift wondering what I would do with my money? Buy a new tank? Spend a whole lot on corals? New fish maybe? One things for sure is im putting $500 in the bank and investing it (thank goodness my dad is smart and taught me about investing.)
SO I posted this thread to maybe get some ideas on what I could do with the other half that im not investing.
Srry i know its been a long thread, but you guys who read it are real ones
Thanks a lot #reefsquad and may the force be with you always.
