    Despite some stock market indiscretions in the 90s, I maintain that wisely investing one's money in the stock market is among the best uses of it.  By wisely, I mean diversification and reducing risk by investing in specific sectors vs. specific companies or "hot tips". /ravi

                  Every time I run down to Amsterdam, I run into English or American "gentlemen" who, upon seeing that I'm a native English speaker, seem happy to inform me what they believe the best things to spend money on are, and ask me where to find them. My customary response is not KSS, so I shan't post it here.

                                  Travelling. Go meet other places, other cultures, other experiences. You have only one life to live, so make the most out of it, either alone or with someone else. I just wish I had more time and money to do it more often. My fingernails even grow when I do it :-D PS: Let's not go religious about the "one life to live" part.

                                          Travelling. Go meet other places, other cultures, other experiences. You have only one life to live, so make the most out of it, either alone or with someone else. I just wish I had more time and money to do it more often. My fingernails even grow when I do it :-D PS: Let's not go religious about the "one life to live" part.

                                          :thumbsup: Well said, Fabio. Also “I spent 90% of my money on women and drink. The rest I wasted” (or some variation which suits you).
