I had to check your country on that one. 10k to paying off current college debts, reserve 10k to future college debts. Probably 30k more reserved for the rest of my schooling, so my parents don't have to pay. Then 50k on... I'd like to build something. Screw investing, unless it's in something 99% reliable. I'd like to try to start a business, a non profitable one even, with my very own website... or I'd research something else of interest and try to buy a patent on that. | ||

1.5) add additional money for stuff I know I'll owe (tuition + rent) 2) take 10% and set it aside as spending $$. if thats more than 1 big-ticket item I'd split it up over a couple months (like computer one month, tv the next, vending machine the next) 3) take the other 90% and invest it in index funds @ 8.3% of total/month starting immediately | ||

- Re-invest the interest back into making more money. - Pay off student loans as soon as school is done - Keep rest in investments till I decide to use part (or all) of what I have for a down payment on a house. | ||

And your mortgage is fucking low. In no circumstances are you to invest in a house you don't plan to live in. Sorry but real estate is terrible right now. | ||

I don't recall my parents ever having a mortgage above 4.5% and they've had 3 houses in their lifetime already. $30k into a savings for the rest of my college expenses. $20k to invest into my current reselling business. $25k invested somewhere safe, so I can use it as a down payment for my house when I graduate from college and get a job. $20k invested with the $30k above to be used as a down payment for the car I want when I graduate from college and get a job. $5k to send my parents away somewhere for a month or so. Not only are they gone from the house, but it'll be nice for them since they haven't gone anywhere in 2 years.

Real estate prices are the lowest they'll be for a while right now. If you want to buy real estate, right now is the time. On December 23 2010 12:30 Hidden_MotiveS wrote: A house for $21k?

Even I don't know where to find a house for $21k here in the US. If I could find a house for $21k and rent it out for $750 a month, I would own a bunch of them by now. The rent pays for the mortgage seven fold. Damn New Jersey prices though. A decent one family house is about $300k or more right now. | ||

Call me boring, but I'll spend my money that would be spent on the mortgage on prostitutes afterwards. | ||
