I would say save it for something more important later in life.

Only $500? You shouldn't make this much of a deal out of it :p as it's practically nothing. Just go out and buy whatever you want for the time being.

Who even considers them self a famous Xbox modder anymore.

No way man, you're such a balla. High five me. I bet you sweat hella dolla bills man. The ladies must run for you, swooning in your presence.

You could buy a RGH. I traded my xbox one (my mom bought me) for 2 360's and laptop, she has yet to realize that my xboxs are 360's and not the xb1 that she bought me. P.S its been 5 months lmao.

What should i spent my $500 on?

Honestly save it.
it will add up in the long run

Sorry for your lost,
you could use it for a gaming pc.

I would say, keep it. As I can't speak for her, but I'm sure she would want you to save it for a "rainy day". Also, if you keep it and just add little bits it will add up over time until you are old enough to realize what is important to spend that amount of money on.

I would start a youtube get
Pc
Capture card
Microphone
Webcam
Editing software

PC parts and/or tech for sure
