10 Things To Do With $1000

Rock Your Back Account is back on ROCK 92.9. To celebrate, I'm sharing my hand-picked list of 10 things to do with $1000.

Why $1000? Because that's how much money you'll win if get lucky with Rock Your Bank Account. Five times each weekday, you get a shot at $1000: 8:00 and 10:00 a.m. with Dave & Chuck the Freak, 12:05 and 3:05 p.m. with Adam 12, and 5:05 p.m. with Hardy. Each time, you get a keyword to enter or text in. Each time you enter, you're in the running to win the $1000. Not bad, right?

So now, it's time to manifest. You know, start thinking about what you'll do with the money in such a way that the universe responds by tipping the scales in your favor and you actually win it. Look, manifesting isn't science. And it's not 100% foolproof. But daydreaming is fun! And it sure beats the hell out of worrying about what you're going to have for dinner tonight or stressing about other crap.

To get you started, I've made a list of 10 things you can do with a grand. These are the things that I would do if I won the thousand bucks. Of course, I can't win the thousand bucks: I work at the radio station that's giving you a chance to win. Therefore, I am disqualified. But as I said above, daydreaming is fun! And for me, it sure beats the hell out of doing actual work right now.

So take a look at my list and use it as a jumping-off point for your own thousand-dollar fantasies. And make sure you download the FREE ROCK 92.9 app. The free app is available in the Google Play and Apple App Store. That's the easiest way to play along with Rock Your Bank Account and maybe win that grand. Good luck! And happy daydreaming!

The Red Sox (and the Yankees) are so bad that during their last series at Fenway Park, tickets had dipped as low as $5 per seat. Double that once you add the fees, and you can buy 100 tickets at $10 a pop. Then don't use them.

Basho is that fancy Japanese restaurant on Boylston St. near the corner of Jersey St. Years ago, I was at a dinner there with a number of my WFNX colleagues. Among them was the legendary Henry Santoro, who ordered the entire left half of the menu for the table to start the meal, further adding to his legend.

I know what you're thinking: that math can't be right. $1000 should buy WAY more Doritos, right? RIGHT! Unfortunately, Doritos are like $8 a bag nowadays. For the same bag that cost $5 a few years ago. So, you get more now, right? WRONG! Same bag, same chips, $8. No wonder their factory workers went on strike.

$100,000 Louis Vuitton Pickleball Set? Yes, it's a real thing. No, you should not spend your money on it.

I ordered a Cameo from Robby Roadsteamer for my kid's birthday and the dude turned it around in hours and it was absolutely hilarious. Highly recommended. Hell, the dude even does 24-hour turnaround with full-blown COVID!

Actually, skip this one. "Might as well take your thousand dollars...and set fire to it."

Speaking of "set fire to it." You know the scene, right? When the Joker burns all that money? Granted, $1000 worth of singles won't make as big of a conflagration. But still...

Currently, credits at Community Colleges in Massachusetts average out at about $225 per credit. So a four-credit course will run you around a grand. Of course, you might be able to get this done for free!

They're currently a buck on the Bell's Cravings Value Menu. Factor in the tax and you can't quite make it to 1000. But you can get pretty close. And that's value!

Seriously. Hell, I'm the guy who told you about the damn contest to begin with! I'm pretty much the reason you won the cash! So let's have it. OK, at least split it with me, right? Fair's fair! Wait, where are you going! Hey, can I just get a hundo?
