What I might do if I had $11K (US)

Buy the rest of the UAD plugins I don't own.
 
I only own just a hairs breath under 50% of their plugins.
 
Now maybe I should wait for a 50% off everything in the store sale. Then it would only $5.5K(US).
 
But then again do I need all those amps, EQ, compressors, limiters, exciters and reverbs?

I would pay my health insurance premiums for the rest of the year.


All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to.

Hi,
 
It would make my retirement a bit easier to deal with ... I could buy some more music!

Music is not about notes and chords! My poem is not about the computer or monitor or letters! It's about how I was able to translate it from my insides!

I'd buy my Mom a new TV, hearing aids and a better chair.  Then I'd find a place to live and restart a business.

Check out the plasma center, you can make a few pound there, and I think you can go twice a week.
 
Also, some pharmaceutical companies pay people to be guinea pigs, and it pays good.
 
remmeber, no pain no gain!

New, large, hi-def, LED TV = $200
New Hearing Aids = $4500 per ear!
New chair = $300
New Place to live = $900 (1st and last month's rent)
(Re)Start New Business (Android phone apps, online marketing - can't afford a Lemonade Stand) = $700

I saw some HDTVs at BestBuy a couple weeks ago. The ones I liked started at $4,500.00. They look so good that a BluRay movie looks almost fake, like people on a stage pretending to do something... well, I guess they are but these TVs make it look that way. So real it looks fake... if that makes any sense.
 
I bet they would be great for live sports though.

Heh, she's not big and is happy in the lower-end chairs.  Plus, she doesn't have high def. so the cheaper 720p TV's work perfect for her.

I was looking at TVs like this:
LG - 65" Class (64.5" Diag.) - OLED - 2160p - Smart - 3D - 4K Ultra HD TV - Silver from BB. LG and others have some monsters... 4K, I had no idea. http://www.lg.com/us/uhd-4k-tvs 
It wasn't that long ago when I was watching the black and white Philco console that got two channels (ABC was exotic).
 
$4,999.00 they really look awesome. They make some that are so big you need a single wide mobile home to make it look right... just sayin'
