<prompt> Human: Hey all, my dad recently sold a property that I would troubleshoot and do basic maintenance on throughout college. I never expected any money for it because I live rent-free in another home that they own, but my uncle that was an investment partner felt that I deserved something for the help. I now have 1000 dollars and a part-time job, so expenses are paid for. What is the best thing that I can do to grow this money rather than just having it sit in a bank account?  <response>: Follow the Prime Directive. Do you have debts? Do you have an emergency fund? Are you saving money for retirement? Are you in school?
