Hey /biz/, meet the newest newfag to ever visit the board. I turned 18 two days ago and have been ghosting this board for about two months, waiting for this day to come along.
A bit about me, to preface
>18
>From affluent family in Ireland, live in the US
>Will not be getting any money from them, which is probably for the better
>Currently have about $1800 to my name, mainly from grad money and working construction
>I do have some business experience: At 16 I worked a summer job and invested in a YouTube subnetwork, and when that went to shit several fellow subnetwork owners and I opened an online store for custom eSports jersey printing, and sold the site in january
>Money from said sale is gone as I locked it away to help save for college which is coming up in a few months(I'll be at a state university studyign CompSci and Business)
>currently working on a website and corresponding mobile app that aggregates and summarizes news articles, web client to be released on monday and mobile app to be released in the coming weeks
As you lads probably well know, I cannot fund advertising for said app on $1800, so I'm gonna need to invest somewhere while I am working on development.
Where should I go first, with such a small budget?

but seriously; do you have a MVP? is it working? is it working profitably?
if it's working profitably you need to ad spend on it
if its not you need cash on hand to wait until it is
if you want short term liquidity for cash on hand while you wait for a MVP to be developed you might consider a CD; honestly, with $1800 you may as well leave it in a checking account
you'll get a shit RoR on a one month long investment that requires high liquidity with low capital

No, none of that.
The first stage of advertising will be fairly cheap if not free, as I still have a lot of contacts and friends who run youtube tech channels, and several of them have offered to make videos about said app. That will help a ton when it comes out.

then with a low risk tolerance and a need for liquidity you're basically down to checking accounts and CDs
if you were willing to go less liquid a usgov strip could be an option

Why did you wait until you turned 18? I've been making money off shitcoins since I was 16

I didn't learn of the "NOTORIOUS HACKER KNOWN AS 4CHAN" until recently. I came to /pol/ from T_D in June and now want to focus 100% on my business affairs and getting in shape before college. Before that I just thought that the site was completely degenerate, but /biz/ looks quite promising.
