    If you are looking for an easy way to make money that is the wrong way to go about it. To earn money you have to work hard not take it easy. Money does not come easy.


    You could offer to cut lawns for some of your neighbours, shovel snow in the winter, or get a paper route.


    Good luck and work hard in the end you will be glad you did.

    Old thinking, change easy to smart and effective and it takes on a whole new light.Good advice perhaps another direction is what kind of small business can I start ?????

    LOL easy way ???????? Thats rich !!!!!!!  Baby sitting , lawn care , window washing , dog walking ,tutoring depsnding on your skills,,lemonade stand ,runner for food at he flea market ,vendors who come alone are unlikely to leave their booths and get hungry..So you go get it and bring it back .for tips. Reading aloud to small children . Make a puppet show and entertain  you learn many skills with this .  Good Luck with your  Jobs

    Too young to baby sit.

    I used to deliver papers - bluesman and Rengard has some good ideas but you are a little young to baby sit. Help at stables or on a farm. Run errands for your neighbours if they run out of milk, bread especially in the bad weather.

    I have no knowledge to base this on but perhaps paper routes on bicycles are a thing of the past. Good idea though.Not being a parent I yield to those with more experience in this area .As to the puppet show that is a distraction and entertainment parents are there but if the kids are busy then time for other things is opened up .I guess this would be called in house supervised baby or toddler sitting /entertaining

    I would think about catering to older people with big yard.  Often times it becomes overwhelming to them, hence, someone like you could come in handy.  Another thing is to become an errand boy for these retirees.  Better still, they have friends that you can also help


    Also, I used to shovel snow in college.  Nobody wanted to do it.  I made all the money.


     

    13 years old is way too young an age to be thinking of EASY ways to make money. It's not like you've had it HARD all these years.


    Get off your lazy little butt and quit looking for shortcuts. Life is full of detours and wrong turns. Only after you'll have made them will you have earned the right to look for EASIER ways. Until then, get to it and hustle.


    You can dismiss this sage advice as adult B.S. OR you can accept it in the positive spirit that it is intended.

    Sage advice indeed . Perhaps a poor choice of words on the part of the young man.Ill chalk that up to youth and inexperience . Thats what guidance is for .Thanks for taking the time to put your thoughts in the ring .

    Bluesman you are right paper rounds as we used to call them are very rare in the UK if at all - it was the old approx 50years ago - I wasn't sure how it is in the USA.
