    Open up a bank account, hide money.

    ???

    Profit.


    Seriously though - do you really *have* to spend it or is this a hypothetical question?

    Re: What to do...

    well all the things that anyone would suggest to do in amsterdam are dodgy things to mention and are probably banned on this forum.

    so why not try 'the amsterdam dungeon', hire a boat and sail around, hire one of the cars and drive it like a hire car should be (ie, not very well)



    from the looks of the picture, they go very fast indeed, you should be able to test the bouncyness of at least 15 cyclists. then with your remaining money you can bribe the local police* and have a free plane trip home (deportation) if youve got any money left after trying all the things that we cant mention


    *the police dont take bribes, this is meant as a joke, dont hurt me please.

    Is that a bad thing? Or are you worried your parents will just waste it on something bad?
