In a recent poll at my Everyday Cheapskate website, I asked: What would you do with an unexpected windfall of $10,000?
Responses ranged from saving every penny to giving all of it away to using it to get caught up on bills. This got me thinking: What fascinating answer would I get if I changed the word “windfall” to “expense,” as in, “How will you respond if tomorrow you get clobbered with an unexpected expense of $10,000?”
