Hey everyone. My world history teacher wants to go to italy for spring break (first 2 weeks of april...yes...we get 2 weeks off) and he wants only about 5 or 6 students to go with him. Well he's obviously got a long time to plan and we'll get more information later...but right now he estimated the trip (for 9 days) to be about $2,500..not too bad right? WRONG if you live in my family! we are in a horrible money situation right now and certainly cant afford it. Heck, I dont think we can afford it when spring break rolls around..so i need a way to make money..enough money to go to italy for spring break. please dont tell me to get a job because i've already considered that and no one (besides mcdonalds) will hire at 15 around here and i'm not about to work at mcdonalds...and even if i did put in for a job...there is no promise i'll get it. So how on earth am i going to make money?? I dont like the basic idea of making and selling food because there is no point in doing it in my neighborhood. So can someone PLEASE help a sister out? I WOULD LOOOOOVE to go to italy! I'm only $2500 away! :) Thanks In Advance To Anyone Who Helps!

Not being harsh or nothin... But, you said please don't tell me to get a job. How else are you going to come up with that kind of money? A lemonade stand at a quarter a piece? Prostitue? Beg strangers for money? Your only option here IS to get a job. Don't just not put in for McDonalds because there is a CHANCE you won't get it. You don't know if you'll get it or not and McDonalds is hiring ALL the time. Like you said April is a ways away and working from now till then, you'll have the money but all these little gimmick ways to make money don't work. If they did, we would all sit at home on the computer and be rollin in the dough. I know your going to rate me a 1 and I'm ok with that because I told you the truth, not what you wanted to hear.
