The first lesson of my adult life was never take on debt. Thanks college

>>954738
Buying a house is just as enlightening.

I owe 6 grand on my taxes this year so..... I am working overtime to pay for my tax bill

>tax refund
>blowing it

You are super plus double goyim

If you're a poor fag and don't have insurance there should be a dental school near you that does reduced fee or free work.. I know some people who have done this.

lmao this gets me every time
>duuuuude check my sweet tat I got with my tax refund
>duuuuuude check my sweet gear I got with my tax refund
>duuuuuuuuuuuuudeeeeeeee

If you have no debt, fucking invest it unless you have a terminal disease.

Invest in a gas mask for WWIII

Seriously though where should a US person invest in this economy? Odds are it's going down.

The easiest way is using an investment broker through your bank. I love watching my money grow every time I get a statement.

ETF's. Read bogleheads guide to investing.

I plan on getting a granite gear pack

>>955071
ETFs are good

why try to beat the market when you can just track the market and spend more time /out/ and less worrying about money

but spending money feels so good

>>954669
Sounds like the life

Saving it, or maybe dropping ten dollars on a sacrifical lens for my NODs.

Duplicate mid-tier gear so I can host /out/ adventures with my poorfag friends.

$800 to spend
what get?

Buy what you don't have, upgrade your essentials. Or plan for the future like an adult.

>>955439
i already have future plans

>>954639
I don't splurge with my tax refund because I don't have poverty-level income.

But if you are curious, I have bought a bunch of stuff recently:

Bergens 95L backpack
ArcTeryx Atom LT x2 (liked it so much I bought a second one)
Smartwool merino long underwear
Icebreaker merino vest
MontBell wool cap
40Below boot covers
2x merino face/neck buffs
Stretch fleece gloves
Misc carabiners
Rescue pulley
Gear repair tape
"Fair share" mug
VBL socks
Silnylon stuff sacks

Eno double nest hammock, for overnight kayak trips

>>955489
Get something better than an eno

>>955489

second that. There's no fucking way they should be priced at what they are. i bought a wallyworld hammock for $15 that is identical in material, stitching, and size.

I have 3 ENO hammocks; slippery shit, not long enough for GOOD asym laying, their end loops are atrocious, their straps weight more than the damn hammock!

I am waiting on the dutchwear chameleons to be available. Right now its early backers only and I missed the boat.

I'm looking to buy a canoe tomorrow. $650 for a slightly used 12' square back.
I want to take my son and my dad out for some fishing.

>>954809
How the fuck did you manage that?

>>954738
I paid cash for university because I worked, do you expect everyone to hold your hand through life?

>>956484
I bought a used 14' Rogue River with a 4' beam for $185 off CL a few years back.

>>956487
There's a few ways this makes sense. You being a traditional student right from hs while outright affording the bill to a proper university can not one of them.

>>956957
Want to make that fix that grammar so the rest of the class understands?

If you brush your teeth well and use decent mouth wash then you don't have anything to worry about. Make sure you don't leave lots of food residue for bacteria to eat up.

Got a new boom stick, a new lightweight big agnes tent, and saved the other half of my return.

Just put in for a week of vacation tailed onto some Holiday hours for a total of 10 days off, and now get to plan my trip.

Open to ideas as I have enough air miles to fly anywhere I want for free, and I already have a solid complete backpacking kit.

Currently in Seattle, but thinking about 4 days 5 nights in lost coast, Yosemite, or keeping it local to North cascades.
