It's a better idea to save the $$ for the house. Unless you make some good $'s once you get the house the entertainment (H/T) budget will most likely be put towards other furnishings, bills, closing costs and all that fun stuff. So maybe you should buy some stuff now ;\)

Although i agree with most stuff lol I do have to say I'm the kind of person that wants the best and I have about 10 thousand to spend right now which I'd rather keep in my pocket because in three-four years when I move out and build my own living room based on a home theatre system I'm going to want the NEWEST and TOP equipment ladies and gentleman thats just how it goes for me!

Don't forget when you buy a new/used house, there are always unexpected costs that arise....from lawyer fees, repairs, possible hidden taxes, home insurance, decorating/furniture ect. Just something to keep in mind ;\)

Hello Rookie

Forget the theater system and the house in three years, go to school and get a REAL education if your not already doing so.

Good luck and be educated.


Those who have long enjoyed such privileges as we enjoy forget in time that men died to win them.

The minute the ring goes on her finger, her priorities will change. Your $10K will instantly get sucked into all the house hold items (which imo is a good thing).

Hell, if you open a 529 with that $10K you'll be LIGHT years ahead of people (for your future children's college needs)

Reality Bites!

On the list of priorities, a home theater should be near the bottom. Make sure everything else is in order first. If you have $10k now, don't waste it on things you don't need. If you still have the money after your bills are paid and the house is finished, go ahead and spend SOME of it. Never get you self in a position where you rely on the next paycheck.

Man, I must be getting old. I sound like my parents. Somebody help me!!!
