Money as a Teen
Hi, I'm 14 (turn 15 this summer), which isn't quite old enough to get a job. But I am very expensive and I need a job because my parents aren't paying for my stuff all the time. Also, I can't do chores because they aren't paying me for them anyway. Also I don't really like children that much so it's not a great idea to babysit. So does anyone have some ideas on how I can make money.

First of all I would like to commend you on seeing the need to work to earn money for the things you want! At 14 a lot of teens expect far too much from their parents and whine if the they don't get it handed to them. You are willing to work for what you want and that tells me you have good values and a lot of maturity. You could try a dog walking service or maybe get a paper route. If you are crafty you could try making jewelry or knit items to sell. You could offer to water lawns or wash cars for neighbors and family members. Make sure they all know you are doing this as a business to earn money and there is a set fee for your services. Good luck!

Hey!
One thing you can do is actually collect cans and bottles and then you can bring them to a recycling place for money. I believe they'll pay you by how many cans/bottles you have. You can start walking dogs around your neighborhood. There are a lot of job opportunities around your neighborhood. You just need to get creative and be more open-minded. Remember getting a job isn't always about the money. You need to have passion, love, and interest in the job. I'm referring to any job when I say that. I hope this helps!
