<prompt> Human: I have been flipping things on Ebay for almost a year and have around 2600 in my PayPal account. After reading horror stories online about PayPal locking up money for no reason I decided it was time to move the money out. What should I do with this amount of money? Currently I am 17 and am going to college next year, but I dont want to use this money for college. I would like this money to use for future businesses and putting it toward future inventory. Thanks for the help, all responses are greatly appreciated.  <response>: Put it in a checking account. I used to flip things on craigslisteBay, and now flip cars. Cash is king. You want it readily available when you find good deals because the good deals go fast.
