I would really like to have a 3D printer for my personal needs. This technology appears so intriguing but I can hardly convince my parents to get me one.

Assuming I have to spend 150 USD right now and cannot spend any more I would purchase a nice desktop microphone, which would be a good upgrade from my current setup with a lapel mic.

It all depends on how you invest it. Invest it in a side gig, stock market, friend's business idea, etc. There are a lot of people (I know a few) that made 75-100% return within the last few months in the stock market. 

Instructions for frustration management:  

1) Sit at desk.   2) Repeatedly slam forehead against desk.

 

I never said I was smart, just smart enough to be dangerous.

 

 

ORLY?

Probably just a cheap tablet to read forums on. Mine crapped out a few weeks ago and I really don't want to bother replacing it, but if the money just fell into my hands and I HAD to get electronics. That's what I'd do.

I'd spend it on at least one hard drive. I've been needing extra storage (4 TB or so) for years, but because it's so expensive I've just been putting it off and backing up stuff very inconveniently (part of my backup is literally on a drive that's in an in use computer.... and both of my HDDs on my desktop are more than 90% filled...).

PC SPECS: CPU: Intel Core i7 3770k @4.4GHz - Mobo: Asrock Extreme 4 (Z77) - GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 680 Twin Frozr 2GB - RAM: Crucial Ballistix 2x4GB (8GB) 1600MHz CL8 + 1x8GB - Storage: SSD: Sandisk Extreme II 120GB. HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB - PSU: be quiet! Pure Power L8 630W semi modular  - Case: Corsair Obsidian 450D  - OS: Windows 7

Some cool piece of old tech.

 

Actually did that recently, should come in a few days.

Ohwait I remember those things.  Iirc the issues were the aluminum paint wears off but the big one is if the buttons get old they stick out too much and the thing won’t slide closed again.  There may have been electronics stuff but I don’t know about that.  Never owned one.  Had a friend that did.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.
