Hey guys, senior finishing up high school here.
I'll try to keep this short.
I have around 1700 in the bank at the moment, working 4-5 days a week at $8.50/hour.
I want to buy a laptop for college, preferably one that I can play some games on too.
I've spent a good week thinking it over and doing my research. I found an absolute steal of a laptop for $680. Considering that I'll probably be getting some graduation money soon (knock on wood), I think that it would be an acceptable purchase.
My at-home desktop pc is an old, clunky vista that I can manage to do school work on, however, I find it quite difficult to study in my own house, so I want to get rid of it regardless.
So, what do you guys think?
Also, bonus, extra credit question- would I be crazy to think that I could afford to move into a cheap apartment with 1 or 2 other people in the next half year?
