If you're only 13 then you can't get an actual job in most states. But there is a website I use to pay for my clothes and put into my savings. It really does work and I love it:

check it out, you just do surveys and stuff and it pays you
and you only have to be 13 or older to join

Dude! You gotta go to school to become a writer. You can't just go apply to be one. Make it your dream to become a writer or what ever you want to be, to help you get back to New York. But in the meantime chill and stay in school!

Hate to break it to you hun, but the average yearly income for an adult, established author, is really only about $40,000. Which is nice amount to live okay on, but certainly isn't 'a lot' of money, AND those are only the authors who can even manage to get their work published in the first place.

More importantly: At the age of thirteen you can't take any job, or sign any contract, with your guardians permission. You certainly cannot move to New York without a guardian’s permission either. It's illegal for you to rent an apartment, or a car, in most countries without your guardian’s signature as well.

Yep. It sucks. But be realistic: Focus on a PLAN that will get you closer to what you want. As lame as it sounds: Good grades and hard work are the best means of escape from small town life. The people who I knew in high school who hoped to get famous quick, still live back in my little small town. The ones who worked their asses off and had a solid plan, escaped at 17 to the big cities of the world, and most of them are now living lives they love.

Rate me down if you'd like, but without A LOT of support from your parent or guardian as they invest a lot of time and money into making you some sort of child celebrity, you just aren’t going to be capable of making an income to support a lavish lifestyle at 17. Your best bet is to find some hobbies you enjoy, some friends you like, and too work your ass off so you can chase your dreams.
