>>89657
saving money when ur like 18 is honestly kinda pointless. I had like idk £2.5k? when i was 18, and I regret not spending it then, because now i just get that every single month so it doesnt mean anything, but spending £2.5k when i was 18 i think i couldve had a lot of fun with. And im not a degenerate i save the vast majority of my income, but if ur 18 just fuggin spend it

Have you considered investing?

>>89656
Reading, hiking, gaming, gym
>>89660
Need to get a driving licence first, which expensive where i live and might be what i end up spending the money on

Ive been saving mainly because i dont know what to spend the money on. Always when i find something to buy I either feel that im gonna regret the purchase or im too lazy to make the effort to buy it (with all the websites requiring all your info and shit)
<
Im deffinetly gonna buy some books, but i couldve done that before with the money. What is also on my mind is getting a nice watch or a camera or maybe a PC

>>89668
ESL because im ESL and im phonefagging

>>89665
My sister told me to buy gold because it would have meaning behind it and as an investment

investerino it

Put it all in S&P500

>>89668
>Nice watch
Wait until you can afford at least a Tudor or something. I've got my eyes on a ranger or blackbay, or maybe Rolex OP idk. Make sure you've got nice clothes b4 u buy a nice watch doe
>Camera
This is a good idea, depends on what kind u want but I can give u some suggestions
>PC
Spending money on the rot-inside-all-day-machine is maybe not ideal. I would advise no unless ur current pc is really bad

>>89668
get a camera so you can be like my great grandfather who was a photographer

>Wait until you can afford at least a Tudor or something. I've got my eyes on a ranger or blackbay, or maybe Rolex OP idk. Make sure you've got nice clothes b4 u buy a nice watch doe
maybe i worded that poorly geg, I dont mean a watch THAT nice. actually i just want some sportswatch like a g-shock o algo
>This is a good idea, depends on what kind u want but I can give u some suggestions
i could use some recommendations because ive never bought one before. i dont know if i should buy a compact camera or not. i wanted a small camera like that because i plan to use them for walks and stuff but i was told those are a meme and that i should buy a normal one.

>>89678
>watch:
lmao brokie!!!! yeah u could buy one of those tho cus they cheap
>camera:
compact cameras are kind of meme because typically small sensor + fixed lens = bad (being able to change lens is like #1 reason to get a good camera, lens makes all the difference).
My personal experience has been with nikon and fujifilm cameras:
<
Nikon DSLRs and lenses can be bought for ultra cheap especially if u hunt for deals, this means you can basically treat them as disposable and not have to worry too much about breaking them. They have a very unique 2000s-y look to the photos if you select the right settings but they SUCK at low light doe
<
Fujifilm cameras are nice and shiny, and have good colours if u set the settings correctly. I rly like mine and the lens selection is quite good. They are also smaller than old DSLRs, which can be a bonus depending on how u want to carry it around. They are more expensive so you end up having to be more careful with them, which i find can be a big limitation
<
TLDR (leddit) old nikons are the best cheap shitters and fujifilm are the best expensiver nice ones (depending on ur preferences)

>>89679
Interesting. I guess ill have to find a DSLR then, thanks for the advice.

>>89655 (OP)
when i turned 18 i got 800 euros and spent them on fixing my teeth and finding out what is wrong with my mandible, maxilla and airways (i have not fixed those because its too expensive)

invest it in an ETF so you don't waste it, spend some of it on stuff you like obviously since its your birthday money but put at least half of it in an investment account

>>89670
don't buy gold unless you suspect the price to rise sharply within a year, gold is really just a short term investment or for rich people to keep their horde of money safe from inflation, for a regular person an ETF is much better for mid-long term

give it to me so i can afford groceries saar

car

>>89739
Do NOT buy a 1200 eur car

>>89742
Not a terrible idea albeit as long as you get it checked by a mechanic before buying. I got a shitbox 5 years ago and it still works fine besides typical wear and tear
