Winning the lottery has always been one of my not so secret desires, and I guess that's part of many of us wishful thinking, and day dreaming but, I quit playing the lottery years ago and don't think I would buy any ticket any time soon. Most of us though have that winning the lottery fire still burning, and that's why probably many are getting to casinos trying to cool it down.
We're talking crypto so often though, and we're right now living virtually, on a crypto project, so lets make that lottery win a Bitcoin. There are, sometimes, BTC giveaways and from what I know Binnace will give 12.5 BTC away in some sort of a contest but, I'm not interested. Bitcoin, although the ultimate holding gold for some, is still a currency, and currencies are made to be spent, so I was thinking today on what I would spend a whole BTC.
If I were airdropped, gifted, or somehow won one BTC, what would be on my spending list for the damn coin?
First of all I'll buy myself my car back. Well, not actually, because I doubt the old man that I sold it to, three years ago, still has it but, sometimes I feel the need, although enjoying walking, to get to some places by car. I almost always have some to borrow but... it's not yours when you borrow it.
Hence, about $3,000-4,000 out of that $9,500 worth of BTC would flow into a brand new used car. I don't like new cars and wouldn't invest in them even if I had much more money that I currently have. I don't believe in the concept of owning a new one and the value that it is being asked for all of them is overvalued in my opinion.
So, lets say I spend $3,500 for the car, leaving $6,000 from that one BTC to be spent, what else would that be on the bucket list?
Definitely a brand new DSLR camera. I like photography and my entire photography portfolio is smartphone pics so I would definitely try and step up a bit with this passion. I don't know exactly what would be, although I was thinking of a Nikon D5600 a few months back, when I thought the bull market was around the corner and I would start dumping some crypto to fill up some old and new desires.
With all the gizmos and other accessories that I would probably attach to it I guess it would cost me about $1,000 so I'm left with $5,000. What's next? Probably a Huawei P40 Pro, a Oneplus 8 Pro or... why not, a great Xiaomi. The idea is that my current smartphone is three years old and I doubt it will live the year, hence I have to think of a new one. Being mobile, means taking a lot of pics so the camera on that smartphone would weigh heavily, that's why I would go on a premium one, and that was the main incentive to by my current one as well, which at some point was a flagship.
Another $1,000 gone, so I'm left with $4,000, from which $1,000 will easily fly into clothes stores, especially shoes, since I've become a bit addicted to sport shoes, so I would buy myself some nice riders an some summer clothing, to renew the wardrobe, for what I'm planning for the last $3,000 left, from that once whole BTC.
Every cent left would get on traveling, and I would start with making a short tour of Romania. I lived in here for almost my entire life and never got to visit some of the best touristic attractions, and it would be a pity not to do that. If some money left after, then I would get to Greece, Croatia and Italy for a few days as well and, probably even Spain(Palma de Malorca), if still some money left.
Now, I know that $9,500 is not a lot of money for some, and that might be a small fortune for others but, if I'd get one BTC that would necessarily be spent, that's pretty much how I'd do it. What about you, on what would you spend a whole Bitcoin?
