Depends on what you mean with a lot of money.
Did buy a telescope for about $500 for me that is a lot of money, for other people its not.

Astronomy is fun. 
What do you plan on looking at? It's hard to see other planets IMO.
I bought it like 6 months ago, and try to find planets and moons, yes they are hard to see and find, so far i have only found Mars and Venus and Jupiter,

Put on a new roof a few weeks ago. $8400.
No, I didn't want to do it, but I was forced into by gutters that were installed incorrectly and caused the lower edge of my roof decking to rot, and then squirrels decided to chew a portion of the rotten part out even more.
The roof was getting old anyways, but I should have had at least 3 to 5 more years.
Fun stuff.

Vacation. We do a big one each year, and then a smaller one later on in the year. It's our time to unwind and have fun.

A car and parts for my car. Have to keep it running so that I can go to work to pay the bills. 
As for other things:
I do spend $50.00 every now and then on iTunes gift cards. I like to prepay on my Apple account.
Last tangible thing I spent on myself was the 30th anniversary box set of ".....and Justice For All" by Metallica.

The benefit The benefit I have at work is I can borrow from my pension. I borrowed $28K and when I pay it back, I'm paying me back and not a bank.

If we're strictly talking about tangible stuff, I just spent $1,500 on new batteries and a new air conditioner for my RV.

Got some money together to help my mother travel abroad to see family, she couldn't pay the bills and travel too, so I found the bill money she needs. She sees this as potentially her final holiday to see parts of the family due to age, and she helped me a lot when I was a young, ignorant, wayward, ungrateful, reactionary fool, so glad I could get a reasonable sum together in time. But need to knuckle down again (after Halloween!) ... though, it's all good ...
