What If I Was Given $10,000?

I love a good what-if question. I pretty much live by what-if questions. Most of my projects came from that very question because it is a part of creating and using your imagination. So when I received the question: What if I was given a $10,000 loan? I couldn’t resist sharing what I would do.

To be honest, I totally wish this was happening to me right now and it wasn’t even a question because right now, I am currently searching for a place for me and my family and having that amount of money could do wonders for me! Don’t worry I am popping all the unnecessary items that I truly desire and removing the items from my shopping cart.

What If I Was Given $10,000?

All jokes aside, I am truly frugal when it comes to money. Unlike most young people my age, I see the value in every dime, nickel, quarter and dollar. As I journey and grow, I have thought about a personal loan, once or twice, at least since I truly want to buy a home someday. If I was granted that money I would put the money towards the home renovations/or home furniture. Because I already know that my future home would be older and in deep need of a Shanice touch.

The money would really be going towards making the home feel like a home. I may have bought a shell aka foundation but all the personal touches to me make the home a home. There are many personalities in our family members and lives. There is no home alike and that is what I love. The designer bug in me would set aside a budget for each part of the home. There are six of us, two families in one home and in my dreams aka hopefully, this happens, that means two homes in one.

Family Dream Home – Upper Half Inspiration

Let’s dive into my dreams for a second and let me introduce you to my family’s upper half of the house for my siblings and my mom.

The house would have a kitchen with plenty of storage, which is important. The living room would have a big couch, a double sink bathroom, and own laundry room. The bedrooms would have a large bed for my mom, storage for my little sister to hold all her crafting things, a private bedroom for my little brother and a bunk bed for the sisters to share. Space for all!

Family Dream Home – Upper Half Inspiration

Take a walk with me and come downstairs to my house! Since I want my own place but not too far from helping my family, a basement apartment seems to be the perfect compromise. I love a stone feature and a brightly lit space. Having a kitchen island has been a love of mine and this table plus island feature is totally up my alley. My own bathroom would be a dream and an office/ craft studio would be fantastic even if it’s smaller than my imagination.

A simply comfortable bed and a tad bit larger closet than the one that I currently have would be great. Most importantly a bedroom for my son that has all the bells and whistles to keep that bedroom as organized as possible and a big boy bed for my growing boy.

I ask you this, what would you do if you were given a $10,000 loan for anything in your home? Share below!
