I imagine this would be similar to the life in the GDR.

- I would invest in my house or flat and probably buy a second house or a vaction home to combat inflation. - Rarer items would be only available for bartering, so I would spend a lot of time exchanging stuff for other stuff like the people in the GDR did. Probably always driving around with a hanger, just in case something becomes available that I need for my house. - I would learn a trade to have something that other people want in exchange for the things I want (e.g. sanitary installations, woodworking). - You didn't state in your questions if the basic income is world wide, so I assume it is only in my country and I'm not allowed to leave (like the GDR had to prevent their people from leaving). So I would take a lot of vacations seeing old castles and hiking. I would never fly again, always going by car or train.
