Scooters, your opinion?

Firstly, if you want to invest your money and actually make some profit, don't put it in the bank. Banks don't pay an interest rate anywhere close to the inflation rate, thus your money, while growing greater in quantity, actually shrinks in value. You're young, invest in something with a higher risk, and thus higher reward.

Secondly, buy a bicycle. Cheaper and healthier.

EDIT: Bike might not be a better option if the city is huge. How far do you have to go on your vehicle?

You know that you're just jealous of their undeniable charm.

I've always thought scooters were alright. I imagine if I was going to get a licence for anything it'd be a car because I'd have more use for one seeing as I don't live in a city, but I think it sounds like a good idea from what KoShiatar said and it just sounds like it'd make getting around the city a fair bit easier.

This isn't the reason I don't like them, though. I don't like them because they are involved in quite a few road accidents. This is rarely the scooter drivers fault, but they still happen. :{

So do motorbikes and cars... Are you afraid of motor vehicles in general? :D

No, but I know more people who have been injured driving motorbikes/scooters. I'm not afraid of them, I just don't feel safe on a motorbike/scooter whereas in a car I do (most of the time). xD
