My opinion:

From everything you described your not ready to gamble. You don't have a bankroll, and your underage (sorry but 18 is still underage in my eyes). I see nothing but bad coming from this situation. Go approach your parents and ask them to stake with a starting roll of 30 buyins, if they say yes then I am probably wrong.

I hate to be nitpicky, but I think 'gamble' is the wrong word. 'Play poker with any expectation to win' is more like it, since anyone with $20 and a dream can go 'gamble' it all on red.

Although I do agree about the 'nothing but bad' part.

(Oh, and if I had $400, and then asked for a bankroll from my parents, they'd laugh at me on the basis that I had more money than they did (and they would probably be correct), so that's not always an option. Just saying.)
