Hello. How good is this MacBook for studies, surfing the web, listening to music and maybe editing a video or two? (Low quality videos). Specs down below. I really want the MacBook to last a few years.

MacBook Pro Retina, 2013.
8 GB Ram
Intel Grapichs 4000 and Nvdia GeForce 650m
Intel Core i7
2,4 ghz
256 GB SSD
4 cores

Please tell me what you think down below. It is second hand offered at around 750$. Will it fit my needs, and how long will the computer last me? Thanks a lot. ALSO - seller is telling me that it has some dead/stuck pixels, which he says you dont notice at all, unless it is fully black screen, then you can actually see it. Will this spread or anything? Should i still buy it?
 
Spend 1,050-1,100 and you should be able to get a new (or at least Apple-refurbished) 2015 model.

Can you spend that much more?
