I think using investment is a bad idea. If you have any out standing debt, you could try that excuse... of course they might take you up on that and require that debt to be paid off at settlement. I'd do an elaborate song and dance on the home improvement angle. Ask your loan officer what to put down!! No doubt he's eager to get anything he's got to the settlement table by now. LOL

What has worked for me in the past is to tell them "I intend to spend most of it on booze and women, but the rest I plan to waste."

Don't tell 'em yer planning to spend it on a 24K gold toilet, though that would work better than most of the home improvement alternatives.<G?>
