What Should I Do with 10.000G?

Hi. I'm new in Stardew Valley and I'm actually in Fall 21 First Year, with 10.000 of gold. My question is, what should i do with that money? I should save it for the next Spring? I need to buy something like vault bundles or the backpack second upgrade?
What do you suggest?

Upgrading tools, making buildings, and using the money is always great, though saving isn’t a bad idea.

when winter comes you won’t have the same availability of money if you relied heavily on crops for cash the last seasons, so you’ll either want to save some of that cash for the following season, or invest it in alternative ways of making money/spending time in winter such as with fishing or mining.

either way you’ll go will set you up well for spring, but I’d recommend branching out with that cash if you haven’t already, so that you have some diversity in your skills and moneymaking
 
A 36 slot backpack sounds kinda nice, but it's definitely not a priority right now; the first upgrade to 24 slots is plenty

10,000g won't buy all the vault bundles either, and there's little point buying them one at a time. Best bet is to wait until you have enough that you can afford to spend the whole 42,500g in one go, to get all four bundles at once

There's nothing wrong with saving it for buying spring crops, but if you haven't already done tool upgrades, get your pickaxe and axe to at least copper, and both to steel once you have found a bit more cash Mining will become so much faster with the upgraded pickaxe, making your descent in the mines much easier, and a steel axe will be able to break large logs. There will still be opportunities in winter to earn money from fishing and mining, plus selling the forageables you find.
