My mate just give me £500 cash for getting him a big job (he's a builder).

1) Should i just stick it in the bank
2) invest in something
3) spend the weekend down the pub

What would YOU do?

Give it back? Don't think I'd take cash for a favour from a mate.

I would buy as many packet of mini-marshmallows as it would allow and glue them together to make a bed made of marsmallow; then I'd sleep on it. cloud9

Pay 3 tramps £150 each and get them to act out Macbeth. Use the remaining £50 for popcorn and props.

Weekend break with the GF.

If you haven't got a GF - a few hours with a professional instead.

its £500 not £500K, if you need to ask how to manage it I suggest sticking it in the bank.

Buy a piece of furniture or whatever for the house. Then when your mate comes round you can point to it and say "thanks for the ...". Then it will always remind you what a nice mate you have.
