I'm a medical student who relies on student loans for part of my living expenses. Practically speaking this means that I get a disbursement every six months and then use about 1/6 of it each month to pay rent, buy groceries, etc.
Is there something I should do with the money while I have it? As of right now, I just put it in a standard savings account where it earns very little interest. I spoke to my landlord and can get a 2% discount on rent if I pay upfront in 6 month payments. Is there a better option?
