I paid off my house, now what?

07-14-2013, 06:50 PM

So now that I've got a couple grand extra a month, what's the first thing I should buy?

If you've paid off your house, what did/do you do with the extra money?

transfer funds to savings

at OP,

Seriously, send me your extra dough and I'll spend it

Bax · 07-14-2013, 07:05 PM

401K for some of it. Maybe follow a long lost dream with the rest.

Consider yourself amongst a select and very fortunately blessed few in this world.
Buy a bottle of Crystal to celebrate, along with the finest cigar in town.
Frame the letter from the bank, as again, relatively speaking, few will ever get one.
Besides that, buy whatever it is you see you want.

If the wife is telling you what you can and can't buy, why the hell you asking us what you should buy?!? LOL

Buy a nice box of stogies and celebrate with your friends.

I'll tell you what we did about four years ago when we paid off our house.

Not much for awhile.

Save, invest, have lots of fun, buy cool stuff you wouldn't otherwise, that's what we did.

Of course now we are looking to sell our house and move since our local real estate market is high, and buy a nicer house, cash of course, in an area where prices haven't come back yet.

We'll see, we are still looking to develop a source of income which will allow at least one of us to quit our job.

Good luck, and congratulations!

start making my house payment

the jiggler · 07-14-2013, 11:14 PM

Wow, what an accomplishment! We are closing on our house on Friday. So from the other end I say well done and whatever you do, do something you both enjoy.

T.G · 07-15-2013, 12:13 AM

Hookers and blow.

Oh, and a Wendy's pretzel bacon cheeseburger or three.
