We often scoff at celebrities' frivolous purchases, but at least they find ways to enjoy their money.
A 2014 Gallup poll found that the average American spent about $94 a day doing ordinary things like stopping by the gas station or shopping online. Spending money that way certainly doesn't sound very fun, which is something a lot of people can use in larger doses.
So maybe you should take cues from the top-earners and get a little crazier with your money? If that sound like fun to you, click through for 40 exciting — and unusual — ways to spend your money.
1. Cruise the World
kw: world cruise
If you have a lot of time on your hands, take a world cruise. According to CruiseCritic.com, expect to pay anywhere from around $15,000 to about $200,000 — and possibly more, depending on the itinerary, length of the cruise, your cabin and the cruise line. Even if the price is in six figures, it's a relative value when you think about how much you would spend in airfare and hotels to visit all of those destinations otherwise.
2. Shower a Loved One With Roses
kw: flower delivery
Take a cue from Kanye West. If you have a special someone, shower them with roses — lots of them. According to Elle magazine, West paid about $7,500 for a couple thousand roses for wife Kim Kardashian. But feel free to outdo him.
3. Take a Trip to Space
kw: Virgin Galactic
Did you have dreams of one day becoming an astronaut? Well, that dream can become a reality — but only if you have a least a couple hundred grand to spare.
Virgin Galactic is accepting applications from people who want to board one of its vehicles to take a trip into space. An upfront deposit of $250,000 is required, however, as is the completion of the application form and a three-day pre-flight preparation program.
4. Have Your Own 'Magic Mike' Experience

If you loved the movie so much, why not see the real thing in person?

Just remember to bring enough bills so you can, as they say, "make it rain."
5. Eat at Mugaritz
kw: Mugaritz
Eating at Mugaritz in Spain, which GQ called "The Most Adventurous Restaurant in the World," allows you to defy the norms of dining out. The tasting menu, which might include items like fresh scorpion fish or coral, is likely to bite at least $200 out of your fun money, according to PBS. But, Mugaritz has made an appearance more than once on a list of the world's best restaurants. So if you have the money, why not indulge in a truly unique — and expensive — culinary experience?
6. Build an Adult Tree House
