<prompt> Human: A little background story about myself, Im currently 17 years old and will be turning 18 in two weeks. Ive been saving money for a car by having two jobs but recently got a DUI with my friends cars. Im waiting for my license to be suspended so no longer will be getting a car since its pointless. I am estimating to have close to 10k. I was just wondering what are some good ways I could increase this money without just having it sit in my savings. Im aware of index funds and a Roth IRA Ive been trying to learn more about day trading but not confident enough to actually start investing into individual stocks. I am also planning on opening a credit card once I turn 18 to build up my credit score. What are some good ways for me to invest my money and other advice I could learn more in finance. Always open to learning new things..  <response>: It might depend on your state but Im fairly certain duis come with a nice fine. Keep a couple grand handy.
