What if you just invested it?

Retirement, where I am now, will happen someday and if you played your cards right, like I did, you won’t even be in a position to have to answer this question because no magic money will appear.

Just a thought.

I agree with investing it but he asked about wines on a wine forum… not investing

…with an invitation to break it down as we wish.

compound interest on $600 isnt gonna really help him retire that much - but getting into the habit of saving $100 a month WILL.

I dont know abut American prices so please take these as approximate, but personally, a bottle of 2014 or 2012 Pontet Canet, a bottle of 2007 Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Rose, and a bottle of Clos des Papes or Beaucastel to round it out.

I just went through this exercise, as my girlfriend gave $600 to spend on wine for my birthday (yeah, I spend that much every couple weeks on wine, but it was a fun little exercise, especially when it’s not my $). After about 10 different permutations, I landed on:

2 Napa Cabernet Sauvignons (Spottswoode and Stewart Nomad Beckstoffer Las Piedras)
2 Bordeaux (Smith Haut Lafite and Pavie Macquin)
2 South African Chenin Blancs (Sadie Family Skerpionen)

Depends. Is this NL Hold 'em or PLO? If PLO, always straddle on the button.

I always thought he was an overrated actor anyway.

so it’ll be 600/1200 tomorrow, 100000/200000 the next day, then 50/100 the day after.

Buy a case of Two-Buck Chuck, donate $576 to a local food bank, keep one bottle for yourself, and hand out the rest to the food bank volunteers.
