<prompt> Human: Like the title says, Im a graduating high school senior with around 8,500 mostly through saving, jobs, presents, etc. and my parents are paying for my entire college experience. the only things that Ill have to pay for are personal stuff things such as hobbies, snacks, etc. However, Im a very conservative spender, so I dont anticipate spending much at all. I also plan to get a part time job while at college. It might also be worth noting that I dont have a car. I dont really know anything about finance. What would be the best way to grow my wealth? Thanks in advance for any help!  <response>: Your parents are obviously very financially responsible. Have you asked them to mentor you on how to manage your money?
