I've a comfortable bed, and a comfortable pair of shoes. That'll do for now.

€1000 on a banjaxed, purple Volkwagon Polo in the summer of 2008.

None of the lads had a car, so I unintentionally saved a fortune being Desi. Lost my virginity in it too. If ye think your first time was awkward and uncomfortable, try doing it in a VW Polo.

My first improv class all those years ago. Opened doors for me that wouldn't have opened otherwise.

Bottom line is invest in yourself.

What did you spend all that 12 dollars on?

In fairness, not even accounting for dividends, that's still over an 80% return on the initial investment, and if that were a block of 1,000 shares, that's a tidy sum! :eek:

Education, pension, laptop, car, tablet.

I also love my wake-up light alarm in the winter months, and my electric blanket.

My Umbro jumper that I bought about 5 years ago for a tenner, still wear it round the house in winter, sometimes wear it to 5 a side.....I wish I'd bought 3 or 4 of them!

My dog. Yes I've spent a lot more money on other things. But the adoration, companionship, memories and laughs my dogs gives me, pretty much makes him priceless.

I bought a sunlight alarm clock two years ago. A great product. I've full blackout curtains in the master bedroom, so was looking for a product like that to have me waking up feeling refreshed. They really work. I bound out of bed full of energy during the winter months at 5.30 after 5 and a half hours sleep.

My investment in life itself.

I've invested a lot in life. Particularly my investment of staying alive, but we'll see how that turns out.

You are going to be mighty pissed off if your investment turns out to be a short term one.

Bought a few acres in '91 for not a lot, sold it in 2005 for enough to pay off the mortgage.

I have two 'with profits policies' that I took out in 2000 and mature in 2030. They both have consistently made between 25 and 35% profit/bonus every year since they started.

Got a link to that?

They're haven't been available since 2001. In fact you can't get a 'with profits' policy from anywhere anymore. They were Canada Life policies but have since last year been taken over by Irish Life. Everything earned so far along with my premium is guaranteed on maturity.

Tin Foil Hat

Buying my own home.
It was tough going at the start, but is saving me a fortune as the years tick on. I'll be rent and mortgage free in another 8 or 9 years.

I don't invest money so my health I would say. Gym membership, decent road bike, and I spend quite a lot on food and eat very healthily.

Maintaining good health and fitness are my top priorities in life. Especially as I get older. I need to stay strong and fit for the job I'm being educated for.
