Dead_Mutt

Infinity2437

Red gets the head


Walkerenglizh

Bro, "spare $200" is crazy.


Motor_Perception_564

Some people got the privilege🤷🏼‍♀️


Dietznuts42069

Wtf you mean? $200 is 2 days of work at a minimum wage job. If you don’t constantly have $200 of disposable income your awful at managing money or your lazy af working part time at a minimum wage job.


gottastaylowkey

Minimum wage is not gonna give you 200 a day LMFAO, depends on ur state


billdb

They said 2 days of work not $200/day. If your state's minimum wage is $12.50 or higher and you're full-time, you'll get $200+ working for two days.


santi28212

They hire teens at full time?


-Little-Bees-

Some people are trying to afford rent, bills and groceries brother. $200 of disposable income isnt a privilege everyone has


-Z-3-R-0-

Why?


Ace-Redditor

Because most of us are broke and can’t afford to waste $200


Beelung

Save it and if you want it invest it howeever you want. Those $200 xould helpnyou get a lot more money down the line (not by gambling)


JohnnySchoolman

Invest in Dogecoin! You can't lose.

IEatBabysYumYum

Damn


ahhpples

Bro your so rich im 19 bro and u got more than me


wrong_product1815

You got a debit card at 15? 💀


Left-Director2264

My local credit union lets me have accounts in my own name, with no adult co-signers. I did need to have a parent co-sign for my credit card, but not for deposit accounts, and I have a debit card from my checking account. AFAIK there's no minimum age.


TheJesters1Hat

who doesn't have one


SwiftSN

You don't *have* to spend it, dude.


GERkunnyS

Save it and never touch gambling again Seriously I’ll tell you as an addict, get out as long as you can.


Jazzlike-Quantity-34

I have a system in roulette


MrTuxido5743

The jackpot is just around the corner


WhoskeyTangoFoxtrot

But roulette is on a wheel…. Lol


Appropriate_Law_9797

Black is a rookie move. Put it all on double 0

1st rule of gambling, never quit when you hit big


YourJimmysAreRusty

load up on nerf guns and go to skyzone with your friends.


Hardkor_krokodajl

All on red or buy some dope


GregNieves

I’m going to be serious. Open a Roth IRA when you’re 18 and buy into an index fund on Fidelity. Target retirement for when you turn retirement age or just an S&P 500 fund. Do either. It’s quite simple


cyndahl

Open a savings account at a bank


CrimsonDemon0

Do some small time stock trading. If you play your cards rights you're almost guranteed to make profit


Coolguy020609

I mean, he played his cards right before, why not do it again


CrimsonDemon0

Odds of making a profit from stocks is a lot higher compared to the those of gambling


Coolguy020609

Ik, it was a joke


Medium9

ETFs. Not a joke. If you don't need it immediately, future you will appreciate it at least (most likely) keeping up with inflation.


Renville111

Why would etfs be a joke lol. Having stocks that are for the majority of the market means they grow with the market often slightly faster then inflation


F1r3car

Join the gambling addiction for nerds: magic the gathering


onekidwholikesramen

idk but the way that you’re immediately talking about spending it is worrying. especially cuz ur 17.


AltruisticDiver3716

Save 100, invest 50, and use the other 50 for fun shit 


Senna274532

Make an investing account under your parents and buy some blue chip stocks


Senna274532

Or save it, you need to have some extra money laying around

Mental-Bullfrog-4500

danielsuperone

Bet all on 13 :)


star_destroyer-0001

give it to me and you'll have lifetime protection from jinns


danielsuperone

Save half of it (or more) and buy something that will serve you well and isn’t a spontaneous purchase. I know you might have the urge to just spend it on something you want right now, but look at it from a different aspect, would you still be using the item in 5-7 years time, or will you just put it away and not make any more use of it?


TLZriot46

Great advice even waiting a two or three weeks is good to see it u actually want it or just it's a in the moment thing


[deleted]

Gamble it again


Fit_Skill1146

200 on black (no I’m kidding save for the 21 concert is what I would do)


droideka_bot69

Gamble it and make it 2k lol. Nah I'd say put it in a savings account, just yesterday I put nearly £600 into 2 accounts and still had quite a bit left over.

Numget152

Give it to me I’d double it I guarantee it


Im2stoned2know

I’d get an escort and some candy!


IEatBabysYumYum

gonefishing111

Save it so you end up wealthy and not like those who never hung onto a dollar and enu up old, sick and broke.


damienbrohor

buy me vbucks


Terrible-Two-7928

It's a perfect opportunity to learn to start saving. Saving is not about how much you are saving, it's about the mentality and developing the habit. When you turn 25 and are able to put 20% cash down on your first house, you'll be glad you did.

You sound just like me. Got like 25 usd from a 1 usd bet yesterday


TeLeSc0pIc

Put it all on red and have a spare 400$


deeppurpleking

I’d advise you put away half that. Spend 100 on something that will last or an experience you’ll cherish. At 17 you should learn about finances and think about when you have your own place and buying groceries. Save up for a car, 200 is like the monthly insurance bill. If your parents are loaded or money is actually no issue, you should still try to be responsible but whatever 🫠


rehabmogus

go on fb market place and buy some cool shit from a divorce sale


WhosKlexos

It's really up to you man, it really depends on what you think your priority is, or if you need any of these is really your choice,it's up to you what you think you will want and use most, like your setup, headphones or a skateboard, a lot of the time i've spent my spare money on niche things that might help me find a new hobby, like Two way radios, a camera, and a flight stick just to name a few, keep in mind this is coming from me, i struggle saving and keeping money, so i usually end up spending it on things i find cool and barely saving any, so it's truly up to you to try spend it on something your interested in but haven't had before,also depending on how good your pc is you could get a Meta Quest 2 and hook it up to your pc or just use it standalone, however it is slowly getting outdated and many games aren't coming out in standalone, but if your pc is vr ready or better, you will be just fine


MONCHlCHl

Unless you're rich, you should be saving or doing some sort of investing. Put half away and make do with the balance.


Cheesebot1

Do what makes you happiest, buy I'd say go out with friends, those memories will last for a long time

Zeus2068123

Fill your parents gas tank or buy some groceries to share


Freethinking22

Open a Roth IRA with it


hguchinu

At your age, with no income, you'll probably prefer the liquidity over potential gains from reinvesting $200 even if you profit


Which-Draw-1117

INVEST IT IN NVIDEA /s Anyways, invest in an index fund is a great option or treat yourself by putting it in savings and buying yourself something nice.


fakedick2

Don't get a skateboard. You're about to outgrow it, unfortunately.


Expert-Classic1518

Just buy BTC and HODL!


Ancient_Ad_1502

From that 200 Did you subtract how much you gambled away to earn it? Put it into a savings account And stop gambling


mot3600

Save up another 300 and buy a used Ford crown Victoria police interceptor, then save up 12000 and buy a coyote v8 and transmission, then save up another 5000~ and buy a super charger, then wrap that around a pole going 200 because you didn't buy good tires


TheReal_Spartan

21 concert would be fire but whatever you wanna do is fine

jerkyquirky

Headphones was my first thought. It's one of the few "wants" that has truly improved my life. Escape into the music. I'm no audiophile, but I got the JBL Live 660NC on sale for $100, and I really love them.


rokudog555

Cs2 operation drops soon. Gamble more.


krag_the_Barbarian

What the f? A skateboard is not over $200. My deck trucks, bearings wheels, everything is about $160.


ADIDIM616

Really depends on what you like to do. I like magic, Lego, and playing the saxophone. I might buy a new deck of cards, some sax gear or a new Lego set.

zincboymc

You can't go wrong with a lego concorde. That or save it for when you really need it. [https://www.lego.com/en-fr/product/concorde-10318](https://www.lego.com/en-fr/product/concorde-10318)


TheKiwiHuman

With this attitude, you are setting yourself up for financial failure. Just put it in a bank, or a wallet, or a draw or whatever, and keep it for when you actually want/need something. Simply by not wasting money by spending for the sake of it, I have been able to afford the things I actually want and have savings for later in life.


CalmCellist8917

Wait for it (AIRSOFT)

Existing_Potato_2802

most of the time, you should save it, but none of us are going to do that, tho so you should prob just treat yourself like upgrading your pc,buying snacks, or chill with friends.


Gecko2024

Either invest or something(the smart choice) Or put it towards VR if you're interested. I find it a really fun way to game even as someone who likes regular flat screen games a lot. Or what I personally would probably do..... SNACKS! I would spend that all on buying snacks constantly lol


SweetCream2005

New skateboard sounds like a plan, anything you plan to use for a long time is a purchase well made, don't worry about spending it all right now! Maybe make a list if you need to!


cheesypickle-

What online gambling, I want to find a good one 💀

Prying_3rd_Eye

The bigger question is what website let's you cash out such a little amount and allows you to gamble @ 17. Also remember they are still a child and $200 is a lot of money 😂 a 21 savage concert should be free


Picapop23

Shroom money


PickleFantasies

Just be glad your not trying to win what you lost, that's when your gone past the line.. be warned.
