Havn't gotten to your point yet but if I were you I would probably work on furnishing/improving my workspace. Like getting a fully decked out pc, a large adjustable standing desk, 2 super nice 24 inch monitors, a monitor arm to hold the monitors up to reduce clutter on the desk, a nice bose soundbar (or whatever sound system you want for your desk), a good mic (probably blue yeti?), a nice keyboard (razer blackwidow lite is p nice for work), and a good mouse (logitech has some good ones) also a large mouse pad.  total should probably be around 6k-7k?
