<human>: Hey everyone, as the title says I'm currently a 18yo uni student who lives in Sydney, Australia. I worked hard in the summer after high school and saved up just under $10 000. I'm really satisfied and would now like to make some smart decisions with my savings and invest it so it makes decent returns. 

Background about me:
I work in food & beverage, I'm in my first year of a commerce degree. Live at home so I don't have any bills or living costs to worry about. Also student loans are not of great concern to me as fees are low in Australia and my parents said they'd help me out. I go out occasionally with friends, but I'm pretty frugal and never spend frivolously. 

My goal was always to work hard over the summer, earn and invest 10k, and then "forget" about the 10k and only spend the excess money I make from now on (I work weekends only, making about $200 a week). I hope that makes sense :S

I've researched a bit about stocks and the ASX, however admittedly it's mostly guesswork so I don't feel comfortable about investing there unless I come across a good stock tip or a website that really helps me understand.

Term deposits seem the easiest but their returns are too low for my liking (I'm an impatient 18yo what can I say :/). Although I did come across this company (first page of a google search) who offer 6% returns on 10k over a year whereas the major banks only give you 3-4%. I'm a little wary though because it seems too good to be true.  

I'm quite interested in mutual funds and keep hearing about this company Vanguard? Not too sure if they're a good company to deal with in Australia though.

I know a lot of people will probably tell me to just put the money aside and keep it as an emergency fund, but I really really really want to invest it and make more money.

Any advice would be really appreciated guys, thanks!!!
