Buy a vacation house or something. You have kids, I'm sure getting away for the summer would be nice.
Thanks for the comments. Yeah, I did actually have a few expenses between my server expeneses and other stuff that I bought, it was like $65K worth. I guess that this year I'll have to spend more

Yeah, I almost forgot about the investing part. My accountant actually recommended that I set up an IRA for both me and my wifey. She says that if I drop $3000 into each account, that'll save me over $2000 on my tax bill which does make a lot of sense, so I think I'm gonna do that, it's like saving $6000 and getting $8000 out of the deal. I think that this year I'm gonna do a lot of investing though. Now that the money is good, I should be saving up as much as I can because I never know when it's gonna end.
