What are some ways other than just having a job as wat ever can i earn money?

i wanna earn money for various reasons...one recently being able to give to a charity/dance that a friend is holding at a hotel...plus i want to start saving up for stuff such as college and sum small stuff like money to go places and eat w/friends so im not always just being paid for!!!

You can try the following methods to make money apart from having a job.

Investment in shares.
Mutual funds
Fixed deposits
Part time business/consultancy
Rotate money on interest etc...etc...

if you want money you work and then your boss gives you a cheque.

Investing. But you need a lot of money to start.

There are lots of service opportunities for you without working for someone else. One is babysitting, another is home shopper for shut ins, if you have access to a car. You can do chores for busy moms like taking the kids to dance or soccer, cleaning houses, mowing lawns, cleaning attics, garages or flowerbeds out, mailing at the UPS or post office, walking or training dogs, general errands, etc. Do you like to cook? Some moms will pay someone to come into their house (or use your own kitchen) and have supper ready when they come home, or you could do this for the elderly. Any good at baking? Cakes cookies and pies are big items at holiday time...so is wrapping presents, esp if you can store them at your house until Christmas.

Are you a good student? try tutoring. Play piano? Some stores will get a pianist or organist on Saturdys or restaurants will pay during dinner time, esp. on weekends. Have any computer skills in demand? Some will py to hve youfix things, or totype ppers for them, eps. college students in the upper classes. Maybe one of the teachers will hire you to help type lesson plans or such.

The best thing about going to work is not the money, it's who you will meet, and what you will learn, about others and yourself, as well as the job. It's important to learn what your worth is to others, so you can plan your life. And there is no freedom like the freedom of having your own money!

There are many ways to earn money. Evidently you re very young so one of the easiest ways to earn money is to really think abut what it is your friends want a lot of. You provide a way for them to get it at a price and off you go.

Either buy what it is and resell it at a higher price or charge them a fee for finding it for them. Either way is actually the same.

I used to provide the beer and other items for teens when I was a teen. Made so nice pocket change. Enough to buy a new car for one.

That particular one I would not suggest this day and age but there are many other things.

try to learn internet marketing. with this i can get $6K to $9K a month. and i'm doing that for part timer.
