The list could be endless, but if it was pure indulgence and just for me and I didn't have to consider anyone else kids, husband, etc I would go to a health retreat like the Golden Door for a week and just rechange the batteries.

Robyn are you giving us $2000?

Not sure what I would buy maybe clothes or just keep the money and buy things as I see them. Can't think of just one thing.

I have always wanted a genuine Luis Vuitton bag, but nowadays that would be more than $2,000

Yvette, I wish...


I am currently saving for a HMP :D   

But I love cooking as much as possible.


bags, clothes, holidays, a thermythings, great ideas.  We often buy what we have to, not what we really want as a indulgence.
So what would you buy if you could..

Robyn like you I would have a HMP.

Yvette I have a LV wallet. It is about 9 years old and is almost as good as the day I bought it. DD has several LV handbags and some of them ( a couple) were less than $2000. Not by much though. I'd dearl;y love one, but have retired and could not blow that sort of money. I'm also hard on handbags.

I just spent $1000 on two extra large tool box's for my ute.  Gave my daughter $1000 to buy herself a wedding present as she and her long time partner secretly tied the knot in Queensland a few weeks ago.  That's my $2000 GONE.......

I would put it towards my mum's kitchen renovations, because I know how much she wants them :)

Put your gold coins away and it won't take long. I have decided that if and when this one dies and even if I am 80 I'm replacing it with a LV.

I would love the health retreat as well though I could probably do that for myself now but never sure about doing that on my own and don't know anyone else who is interested or has the money.

A LV handbag sounds good.

Obbie, Cookie,  I'm interested to know why you want the HMP so much and do you think you would still get enough use from teh TMX? I guess I just don't have the time to cook that much or the people to eat the food.

This isn't as easy to answer as I would think - the thing I would like most is time.  Just time, nothing else - well, perhaps a clear head, not thinking or feeling guilty for doing nothing.
