Work gave me €5k to spend on whatever I want by Dec 31 or lose it, what do I spend it on?

Before buying anything check whether or not you will have to turn in the items you bought to the company , in the event that you leave or when working from home ends.

Its a dream build, otherwise would have specified the work done specifically.

 

Went through the entire thread to read every OP post, even still never responded to anything specific.

 

Day Dream build posts are common.

 

Reminds me of a song by the Bare Naked Ladies "If I had a million dollars"

 

 

 

You obviously didn't read my 3 other posts of my entire posting history here very well. I said "I work in IT". Another clue would've been when I asked "Any recommendations on a equipment rack to stack servers/network gear on?".

 

This isn't hypothetical.
