i am just out of high school and worth over $600k (mostly inherited). I have full control over the money. I cant tell any of my friends. I told them about a stock I invested a few thousand dollars in that quintupled and I can tell from their reaction that if they knew anymore they would start treating me different. I live jewishly and spend very little money. I am also now reading everything I can get my hands on about investing and trading. I just need to tell somebody to get it off my chest.

Well good for you.
Knowing you have a bit of money, and controling yourself is always a good idea.

Don't tell anyone about the money. I know from experience everyone is your friend when they know you've got dough.
Buy a modest house and pay cash. Make decisions that will lower your long term cost of living so that you are not tied down. Keep the majority of the money for a rainy day. Live your life as if the money doesn't exist. Keep the money in low risk investments that return slightly higher than inflation.
I'm speaking from the point of view of someone who has also recieved a windfall in the past and squandered a good bit of it.
When it's gone, it's gone. Will the things you bought with it still give you pleasure 20-30-40 years from now?
Again, in case you missed it. KEEP YOUR FUCKING MOUTH SHUT ABOUT THE GOD DAMN MONEY TO EVERYONE!

Nice way of demonstrating your ignorance. You think the jews got so rich and powerful by NOT coming up with the best investment plans? Have you ever heard of a thing called a bank?

thanks #6 you are totally right man. sorry to hear that you wasted a lot of your money, that is the main thing i'm trying to avoid. and im also going to keep my mouth shut, like you said. unfortunately i already told one of my friends about a stock I bought and how much, that is now worth over $30,000. I'm just going to shut up in the future. It's weird, though, like somehow I feel compelled to tell people and it's almost a burden to know that I shouldn't. I guess it's some evolutionary thing because money = power so I want to flaunt it.

Tell the one friend that the stock divebombed. As long as you act pissed/depressed he should buy it. Make sure to bitch about it.
It's our ego that fucks us over in these situations. Like I said, pretend it doesn't exist. Resist the powerful urge to get some temporary joy with it.
Good rule of thumb: If you are considering spending it, wait 6 months. If it's just an urge to blow it on something stupid it will probably pass as time goes by.

I agree with #6 for the most part.
Personally I would put it towards starting my own business but that is only my dream, not necessarily yours.
I also hide what wealth I have and live jewishly, especially around females since I want to weed out the golddiggers.
If you ever get married make sure to get a prenuptial agreement of somesort.
Trading is cool and all, but i love the idea of investing in a business directly and running it.

Hold onto it.
It sounds like a lot, but as you age, you'll realize it's not as much as you think.

It's a dream of mine, also, to run a successful business. I don't really know much about all that though. I also haven't really developed a strong enough passion to have a business yet. I will definitely look for likeminded people in college though and do lots of networking. by the time I'm done with undergrad I want to be involved in a startup

Ya man, its human nature to want to tell your friends and just brag about how much money you have. Its like if you were banging some hot teacher in highschool, you desperately want to tell people and brag about how lucky you are but you realize that if you tell someone, that will likely be the end of that fiasco. Same thing for you anon1. Keep yo mouth shut and live as if you didn't have the extra 600k

If you have someone you can trust, you can just tell them that you don't have to worry about money, but don't give out dollar amounts. I've always had quite a bit of money. I went into my undergrad with about $80k in cash, plus my parents paid for tuition. I just chose not to work during that time, but never told any of my college buddies about it. During school my dad had let me know that he was managing some money for me in a separate account in my name. He let me know about it and gave me access to it, about $300k. When I finished my bachelors, I bought a car, nothing fancy, it cost me $25k. I got an inheritance from my grandfather last spring, and that was another $95k. Right now, I'm renting, I still have the same car I bought, and I live frugally. I'm about to go back to get my masters, but I still have $400k. Money doesn't buy happiness so I don't even attempt to.
I had a job offer before I graduated and worked for nearly 4 years. The job was absolutely horrid, so, I just resigned earlier this year and now work for a company and industry that I absolutely adore. I'm only making a quarter of what I was, but I'm now slowly using that money to transition into a different career. You've got a lot more money than I do, but I suggest that you pursue what you are passionate about.

Right now I dont have too much but eventually Ill be inheriting several mill.
Im just going to buy acres upon acres of wilderness and live like a frugal hermit.
I'll let a good portion of the money collect interest and just use the interest for things like food, travel, cars, etc and let the rest just sit tucked away.
I figure if Im making 100 grand a year in interest that is more than enough to live on, it only takes me about 2 grand a month to live as comfortably as i want to. Anything more than that is just fun money.
I need to get over my gambling problem before i get that inheritance though.
So basically the plan will be;
- Spend a small portion on the boat Ive always wanted and the land I always wanted.
- Spend something small like 2 thousand on gambling.
- Invest whatever it takes in starting my business
- Put all of the rest in a long term safe high interest investment.
- Live off of the interest if the business tanks
- If the business doesnt tank accumulate more wealth
Thenagain billion is the new million. Being a millionaire in America is considered "middle class" these days.

damn, a few mill? I cant help but say your a 
if your not though, your a lucky fucktard. lol.
If i inherited a few mill, i would buy a lot of acres, either out in the country on a hill with a nice view, or by the beach. I would also live like a hermit, but with like 5 dogs, and plenty of guns incase hooligans be on my property. never know who youll run into out in the country when its pretty deserted...
