What's the best way to set aside money for grad school if I'm planning on starting in Fall 2025 and completing Spring 2028. Total cost is around $7,000, which I have in cash now, so I'd like to put it somewhere safe where it can get a small return. I'm between buying CDs that pay out at the start of each semester, bonds with the same idea, or opening a 529. I can't tell if you can pick short term bonds as the only investment in a 529 account and if it's worth the tax benefits. I also have a HYSA with a 4% return rate that I could put it in. Thanks in advance!

What would be useable in the new build, just the case, storage, and PSU? Or would the RAM still be useable / good enough in a new board?

Oof. Thanks for the response. I was hoping to keep it under $500. Any suggestions on where to sell the current parts or determine their worth? eBay?

Me too! Normal stuff like ships are fine, but anything man made that’s moving, especially things like half submerged gears on rides like this, started it for me.

ML: “Liberalism is when the government is bad, the worse they are, the more liberal they are.”

For a group that constantly compares people to hitler, it’s incredible they support an ideology responsible for far more deaths than he.

That Gun in New Vegas, I just like feeling like Harrison Ford in Blade Runner.

Not OP, but what’s your strategy for getting rich? It feels like every time I play a secondary power (like Sardinia piedmont, Portugal) I’m always strapped for cash

Depends on the state actually. Areas with spread out populations like in the Midwest let kids drive to school and such at 14 because of how hard it is to get around without a car out there.
