I've got $10,000 and an hour
QotD: "If I was to hand you $10,000 and the only condition of the gift was that you had to spend it -- and spend it completely -- within the next hour, what would you spend it on?"
Unfortunately, when I wrote this question I changed my mind about the money amount midway through the question. That's why some of the questions that have already been answered say $50k and others say $10k. I changed it back to $10k since it's easier to visualize. $50k is such a weird amount and I can't think of anything other than a car that is in that range.
So my answer to this question. The Internet makes this one a whole lot easier. If I had to actually go outside and spend the money, I'd probably spend it at some outrageously expensive boutique. Since, after all, it's found money and I couldn't bring myself to spending that much of my own money. And, it's probably a lot easier to spend $10k on things that are overpriced.
If I was to buy two things right now, I'd buy this Vespa and this necklace from Tiffany. Leftover money would go towards the vacation I'm going on next week.

Love the vespa! Now I want to get one of those too!
If you buy that Vespa, you can come to my club's scooter rally in August in Washington.
Ditto on the GT.... *sigh*
yeah, i caught the QOTD when it was $50K, so i got 2 Priuses. SCORE!
though 5 Vespas does have a nice ring to it...
Oh. See for me, $50k is a few months not worrying about billable hours. So actually you're asking with $50k what I'd do with time.
You made the question up? Hmm.
Actually spending does not seem a problem: the opposite seems much more chaleging:
how would you make/save 10K in a hour?
Ah, so that explains Torrez's comment
