<prompt> Human: Hey guys, so I am currently a high school student Senior, and I currently have 5k to my name and bring in around 400 a month. Currently this all goes to my bank account, and I havent really touched my money for around half a year. Is there some way I can invest this, or put it in a fund? I have a couple of elders telling me to put it in a Roth IRA. Is this advisable? Thanks!  <response>: Keep it in a savings account for college or vocational education expenses. The best investment you can make at your age is in your future earnings potential through education.
