Magicians could spend cash on...

1) libraries
2) labs
3) lifestyle
4) vehicles
5) equipment of all sorts
6) armor
7) initiatory groups
8) family
9) retirement
10) investments
11) fake id's
12) bribes
13) information
14) bodyguards

Well, there's 14 and there's dozens more to think of (though #5 is kind of a
catch-all). None of thsoe require karma of any amount and all are valid
personal expenses.

As a side note, our campaigns generally give out a little too much karma
(but make sure that it is spent according to what has been going on in the
campaign) while giving out little cash (after all expenses were recorded,
we'd end up with between 5-10K per run, per person).
