It''d be a shame to put all the gold in a safe deposit box when you could play with it all day. It would be like kids'' blocks, except for grown ups. You could stack it up and make little houses or even build a little gold pyramid to decorate your living room. Way too much fun!Date: 3/24/2009 11:48:40 PM

Hmmm ... since you couldn''t buy a shack or a studio apartment in my neighborhood for $100K, B is out. The gold sounds like it might be the best investment choice, but since gold is higher than it''s ever been, chances are the value could go down in 5 years. The car and the diamond would be great, but I would feel like those were too frivolous.Date: 3/24/2009 7:41:45 PM

D or E ... I think more about retirement than bling lately. Sad I know!
I would choose this, if it bought more than a cardboard box on the side of the road where I liveDate: 3/24/2009 7:41:45 PM

E. I would never wear A. I would never drive B. And a decent home in my area, and we live where it is cheap, is at least $150K. We know what D is worth.Date: 3/24/2009 7:41:45 PM

Exactly. I did a search on quite a wide radius around where I live and the only thing under $100K I could find is the following beauty:Date: 3/25/2009 12:37:25 PM

So I guess I''d take the stock.
Not a 100k car or diamond ring... puh-leeze!
