Two hours with a chess coach
If you were given $50 and had to spend it on a chess product, what would it be?
Not exactly chessy, but I'd use it to buy wide shelving.
I keep buying chess sets, chess ornaments etc but I have nowhere to put them all, they're all different sizes and at the moment I just don't have the space to have them all out on show when they aren't in use. I have a fairly large procelain ornament of two 18th century figures sat at a table playing chess but its too wide for my current shelves.
i would bet the 50$ in the next candidates tournament , the winner will be Aronian.
I actually predict that Aronian will come in third, behind Kramnik and Topalov. But that's just my own intuitive prediction.

You're supposed to say a chess.com annual membership....
Ja bi te pare dao da neko dodje i namesti mi da mogu da igram na chess-com normalno kao i vecina igraca !!!
My local strip club has a chess board like stage (black/white squares). An evening there.
By my calculations, after cover charge and a drink $50 will last you exactly 6 minutes.

I am betting that you could buy some decent lumber, screws and or zip-its, angle brackets, and some paint or wood finish, for no more than $50 ....
You could custom build a set shelves where ever you'd like to put them...
I would probably buy a demo board and use it for games with my friends.
