I errr need money. How do you get money and make it and what are any ideas for me? Since I'm only ten I can't think of anything other then opening a savings account and wait for it to gain money.( I only got 31 Bucks so I would deposit all of it into my savings account.(At my rate its 0.05 which means I'll be making nothing D:. )
Any ideas? Thanks for even bothering. I live in Las Vegas there is no such thing as a lawn with real grass let alone mowed or not.

Ask your parents if they can start paying you to do chores for about 50 cents to a buck per chore. It's not a lot, but since chores are done almost every day it adds up. If you buy lunch at school and your mom or dad gives you money to buy it, keep the money and go hungry. Do it like every other day or every 2 days, because it's not exactly healthy for your body. You can always eat after school or eat a big breakfast.

1. I always eat small breakfasts.
2. School food is **** and unhealthy I ain't even trying it.
3. I get home lunches.
4. My mom is the Maid and Husband of the house ( I got a dad but he just drinks ). So she'll say in Russian " Do the ****ing chores yourself for free then you'll feel how I feel. "
5. My current income is 25 a day I get about 75 cents in change every 3 days. So thats not much but it does add up.

1. Ask parents for help. This can be in form of allowance, payments in return for doing menial tasks, etc.
2. Dig through the house for old things you just don't need. Sell them. Careful where and who to sell to. Certain items have different values depending on where you sell.
3. Get a job. A part time job if you're busy.
4. Advertise yourself in the neighborhood for menial tasks. Lawn mowing for 20 dollars. Whatever gets the job done.
5. Dig around the house for loose change. Couches and etc.
6. Start a porn site.
My bank gives me 3% annual interest in savings account. Which is a few dollars every month.
I'm hoping to upgrade to a higher annual interest account and dumping like 10000 dollars in it, and seeing if I can't live off the interest.

I say porn site is the best way to make money.
But I suppose you can't do that since you're 10.
Why does a 10 year old need money?

Why? Well I want to get a fish tank. Some dude told my mom that there was a pet store that was selling tanks for a Dollar a gallon, so 53 gallons = 53 dollars you pay more putting water in the damn tank. + I want to get some Angelfish but there so ****ing big and therefore they need a big tank but obviously not a 53 gallon I think I'm fine with 30 but I want to keep money on hand cause a few weeks ago my mom asked for 2 dollars and I got it back a while ago.
@edit:(Babytalk) pwus the fwishes cwost awmost fwour bwucks a pweice.
But my dad's friend Robert says once his fish get too big he just trades them in for free :D.
One big fat fish for one tiny fish.

Don't get fish.
They die so easily and then you get very depressed.

I already got fish. 3 of them died. I'm not sad and I had them for a long time. Leslie (My old giant goldfish) had her for 3 years I was a little depressed when she died but not that tragic.

Have you asked your mom for fish..?
Pets really shouldn't be something you need to save up for, especially since they need food and such.

Rahannnn wrote on 2011-01-06 05:12
My mom will buy the fish but not the fish tank.
Food is relatively cheap at my local fish store.

Have you asked her how she expects you to get the money?

Yes she said " You get like 75 cents every 3 days right? " I say right " so there wait your time and it will come to you. "
