Yanal, this is off topic, but I am wondering how you manage to be 110%?
Are you a superhero of some kind?

To answer your question, I never made any money when I was 13 or 14 ... but my daughter is that age. She has made some crafty things and sold them for a small profit.
She also used to deliver newspapers.
 
Sell your shoes to your friends, then go to their house, play hide and sneak i mean seek...As they hide, find the shows and sneak off back to your house. JOBS A GOOD'UN!

My parents used to give it to me when I needed it, however some of my students have some great ideas:

1. Buy a big pack of lollipops in the supermarket and sell them for 20p each on the playground.
2. Bring in your Sony PSP or Nintendo DS to school and charge £1 for 15 mins of play on it.
3. Order some free sim cards off the internet, plenty of places you can get them for free, and sell them for £1 or £2 to friends.

The above techniques will only work so long as your school does not have an anti-games console or anti-students trading policy .

cool thread.

i used to make friendship bracelets and sell them to my class mates... and then they started placing orders... tellin me which colours they wanted. lol how sad i was.

other than that, hmm just used to pester my mum if i needed (ok, wanted) anything to buy. being their only daughter worked in my favour.
 
:sl: True............. however my son only has to look at me with those big brown soppy eyes and my heart melts and i give in................

It goes something like this...."Mum can i have a pound?"

"NO"....................
"Please mum...................."
"OK".....................

I guess i am just a softy!!!!

Things were a little different when I was a kid. I started working when I was 5 mowing lawns in the summer, shoveling driveways in the winter. When I was 7 I started working summers full time on a dairy farm. When I was 14 I went to work full time on a tobacco farm. At 16 I was working full time as a grocery clerk in a little country grocery store.

this was at a time when the USA was recovering from the "Great Depression" and it was normal for kids to go to work to help pay expenses. Yep, my mother charged me rent. But, it was deeply needed at the time. We were quite poverty stricken then.

also at 14 I started working Saturdays at a local private airport washing and cleaning light aircraft in exchange for flying lessons.
