1. Who do you call first?
Assuming![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rackham is with me... my mom.
2. What is the first thing you buy for yourself?
Our house -- I'd pay it off. Or does that count, since we've technically already "bought" it? Other than that? Hmmm... something completely frivolous. Assuming we both passed the fitness exam (which is saying a lot at this point -- another good reason for getting in shape), I think we might do this: http://www.spaceadventures.com/steps/edge. Which, while still mondo expensive, is nowhere near as pricey as it used to be.
3. What is the first thing you buy for someone else?
I've got two friends right now who are going back to school, I think I'd probably work out some sort of college fund for them.
4. Do you give any away? If yes, to whom?
The standard places... Tithing and then another 10-15% split among our usual charities.
5. Do you invest any? If so, how?
I'd consider paying off the house to be a bit of an investment (especially around here where the the housing is ridiculously over-priced). Other than that, yeah, I'd probably figure out some way to invest it, but I have no idea how.
