Default Re: What to do with a little money?

how about putting it into a CD?

5k into 6-month CD at 4.6% apy
10k into 1-year CD at 4.9% apy

The added advantage of a CD is that I won't blow the money on some stupid crap and I'll at least have my tuition locked up in case something goes wrong.

Weak tight, or wise conservative?

why not keep playing poker? Do you think you're not capable of handling poker and school at the same time?

4.9% of 10k is 490...you can make that in a week playing 5/10

investing is good and all but your return will be so much higher with poker, especially with only 10k

I have enough to play poker, this is the money I saved that I want to save for tuition.
