i am 13 years old and i want to find a way that i can make alot of money fast. i already babysit for this one family that gives me $60 dollars every time i come. i want to be able to make money by not doing alot of work. please help.
Just a couple of Saturdays ago, I worked at a party. My brother's best friends mother.... haha sounds confusing... or *my good friends cousins mother!* if that makes it les confusing. Probably not!! haha, sorry, off topic. anyway..
She had a "get together" for the whole family. And because she knew that I wanted a job and that because I watch my brother and I help her out a bit, so she offered me a job just helping her at her party. I ended up washing a few dishes, cutting a few vegis and just a couple things for about 4 hours... mostly standing around, and was paid $40. It was most satisfying!! haha
But so I would just try to get in with the mothers who have "get togethers" because once you do one persons party, someone there sees you, offers you a job... I mean, I am busy the next 3 saturdays. Good thing I dont have a life!! Just kidding!!
Also, the usual babysitting, dog walking, house cleaning, garden care, and things like that is good.
Oh, also. I go to camp. I am a CIT.. consulor in training. That means in 2 years I will be paid as a consulor. They get 700 dollars every summer.
So if you want money, and lots of it, sometimes you need to train.
Hope this helps

They take all types of clothes, even shoes. The clothes are normally in pretty good shape and they can be pretty much any brand. I dont think you get too much money from selling your clothes to them, but its an easy way to get rid of old clothes and make $$

SparkleAngel answered Tuesday July 18 2006, 5:51 pm: what you could do is have like a yard sale and sell like really salty (needs a drink) food then set up a dink stand because if you have that kind of food people will want a drink then try not to spend that much money you might not realize it but that might also be your problem you might be spending all your money you could also find new clients and start charging a little higher as you get more friendly with them well you can't really do it that fast but you will get more money even try having a bake sale or a like daycare I hope i helped
