Is there any way I can make money at the age of 13, but not have a working job?

wash cars, cut grass, walk dogs, run errands, deliver papers


mmoonnii
Yes there is. Try to baby sit. it is a job with much responsibility and you don't have to work physical.

I was babysitting at the age of 13. By the time I was 15, I had a large amount saved up and put a down payment on a new car.

You can do a paper round but it can be dangerous (dogs, wierdos). I would advise asking friends and family to do small jobs for them like washing cars, painting, clearing leaves.

Well babysitting is good. Also delivering papers, walking doggies, doggie sitting, cutting the grass, ask your parents if you do more things around the house will they pay you more allowance. Pulling weeds for an elderly neighbor, ask around and see what people need help with and I am sure you can do something for them.

Any elderly people in your neighborhood? They always seem to need a little help. How about dog walking.? Lots of people are working and would like their pets To get out of the house to go to the bathroom or for exercise.

Hi there are plenty things you can do and make money without working for your age
1. Check out your church office and see what you can do for a couple of hours a day during the summer
2. Talk to self employed people who needs someone to pass out flyers in the neighborhood like realtors, mortgage brokers, insurance agents etc
3. Set your babysitting preference like for people who want to go to dinner or a movie
4. Make you some sandwiches or drinks and sell them from in front of a store sort of like a bake sale ask the business to let you do it then bake, prepare and sell
good luck you have good talents look at what they are and see who needs them

Sell stuff at a car boot. My friend does it and her family give her stuff to sell that they don't want any more. Sell stuff on eBay with your parents help? Anything like that would give you extra cash without actually going out to work.

of course there are ways! im 13, too. now, i cant do cpr or all that stuff, and i havent taken a crash course in babysitting 101, which means not a lot of people want to hire me to be alone with their kid if i cant really save their lives. (well if i wasnt trained to do it) but theres a cute little girl across the street, and while her mom was upstairs working i watched her and played with her for about 1 1/2 or 2 hours. i only made 5 bucks, but it adds up. you could also dog walk, or wash your neighbors, or even your parents cars. also, you could have a lemonade stand....lol. i know it sounds stupid, but right now its summer! and trust me, if the lemonades good, they will pay a lot for it. but dont make it too expensive. try like 25 or 50 cents. i've seen some stands sell lemonade for like 2 or 3 bucks and no one buys it! anyways, good luck!

other than babysitting and yardwork i dont think theres nothing much left.....


Chick-a-Dee
When I was 9, I started doing basic yard work that most people are too busy to do. Liie raking and bagging, mowing,, even shoveling doggie poop. It sounds like of gross but it earned me some cash!
I remember that one of my favorite things was a tape player with headphones that I bought for $12. Yeah, it was the early 90's lol
If you establish several yards that you do on a regular basis and do a really good job, you'll have some good cash flow!

What do you mean by "a working job"? Do you mean "how can I convince people to give me money, while I do nothing in return?"

If so, the best answer would be "no", but the truth is that you might be able to get an allowance like that.

If however, you mean "the stores I have tried tell me I have to be 16 before they can hire me - how can I earn money now", then the answer is - be creative!

1. Contact newspapers about being a delivery boy
2. Mow lawns
3. Babysit
4. Water lawns
5. Walk dogs
6. Shine shoes

and there are many more ideas besides this, for someone who really wants to work.


CAR0LINE! :]
yeah...go workin at the carwash yeah....


Cookie
If you can find the answer to this question please tell me.

I have been looking for money without working for the past 36 years.

Good luck in your life and don't forget to have fun this Summer.
