I would continue to do what I do now; however, I would allocate that money in the following ways:
First, I would find out how much money I need to send the IRS. Then I would send them more than they ask for so I could cover my own rear end.
Then I would pay cash for a very reliable and economical vehicle. I'm thinking a Toyota Carolla or Camry would be a good choice.
Anything else would be savings for a rainy day.
I would also pay attention to whether or not my friends or relatives attempt to manipulate me and my situation. I might share with someone if I feel inspired to offer them a gift but I don't allow myself to be manipulated.
