What would you do with ~2000E ?

Postby Strafe on Thu Jun 30, 2005 6:40 pm

Let's say you have a limited amount of money - 2000 EUROs.
What would you do with it ? Invest it in something comercial ? Invest it in a free service such as this one ? Open something like a car tuning shop, a mini-market, a bakery etc... ?
Or would you rather get drunk and spend it all on cheap women ? Smile Uh, tough decision now that i've thought of this one..

On a more serious note, i'd open my own car modding garage since there's only one here in Constantza Wink

I'm looking forward for your ideas.
Cheers.

I'd probably waste it all on stuff I didn't need. Random stuff, movies, computer stuff, new speakers in my car Very Happy, anything else that seemed random enough I'd get too. although, I'm not sure how much 2000 euros are in usd.

i would invest it.

it's about $2400... In other words, it's pretty much peanuts. It's a cost of a decent computer.... You can find a decent guitar for that money, and maybe a nice used keyboard.

Strafe, you've either missed a zero at the end or are delirious. 2000 euros won't get you very far in life ;]

Open a bakery? You can't rent business space for a month for that kind of money here in San Francisco.

Here in Romania, 2000E is enough, believe me (base salary is 100E). I've spent on my "decent" computer ~700$ that would be like 500E.
I didn't miss a zero, i'm planning to raise some money and either open my own business or buy myself a car Smile

I think I'd pay my bloody bills on time for a change Neutral
Invest in the extra services I currently need but can't afford and then save the rest to pay next months bills Confused

Errm i mean what can you do with €2000 these days...
Not that much..
More like what will you do with €5000 or €10000, that will help you make a small computer business. (You still have to have alot of money in your pockets
to do this though Rolling Eyes )

IN A BIKE ? That sounds hilarious. I'd rather invest in my grandma Wink

I see 2000E is low for you to start any business, but i told you, here in Romania, it's enough.

Anyway, i'm going to raise that money and buy a car. I'm convinced. These days i went to a tuning show, i've cruised around the city with some of my friends and i really am desperate for a car.
