$.$

     We're all familiar with the phrase "money can't buy happiness", but it sure can buy you a bunch of nice things. With $100,000 there would be many wonderful things I'd like to buy myself but first and foremost my family comes first. I'd make sure we'd have a nice big house with a huge back yard so my nephews and niece could play all they want. I'd make sure my mom would never have to work another day so that  she could just relax all day at home. I'd help out my brothers and sister too even though their pride might not let them take it I'd find a way to get it to them.
     Once my family is taken care of that's when I'd go crazy buying myself things. I won't go overboard and buy like a $300 pair of shoes, I'd still be smart and reasonable about my purchases. I'd get a really nice practical car that gets me where I want to be, no need for it to be flashy and eye popping. One thing that's definitely on the top of my list is a room in my house completely devoted to football. I'm talking weights, endless supply of footballs, sleds, bags, and an unlimited amount of space where I can run drills. Money may not be able to buy you happiness, but it gets pretty damn close to.
