What are some quick and easy ways for an eleven year old to make money?

Question by U : What are some quick and easy ways for an eleven year old to make money?
My mom says I have to buy everything for myself from now on, so I need to know some ways to make quick cash (and I don’t mean mow peoples lawns, sell newspapers, etc.).
I can’t make the money from my family cause they’re cheepskates.

Well, if you’re not into the old fashioned business of going around making money, try more unique ways.
At my mothers work, she is friends with someone who’s son (who is also eleven) makes fudge and trail mix and sells them through the work for about five dollars each.
He has made a lot of money so far, and I actually envy him, even though I am older.
Another interesting job is to buy and sell on eBay, with your parents’ permission and help. It takes a lot of work to master it, but it can be worthwhile. A yardsale is also nice.

I know you said you’re not interested in the little things, but those do add up! There’s a story of someone who bought a cheap lawnmower for about 10 dollars, and then made 10,000 dollars in one year!
Just look around for random jobs and it will eventually pay off. Tutoring, painting, helping out in offices, etc.

Don’t spend it on frivolous things like candy or toys, because eventually, you won’t even remember owning those things! It’s basically like throwing your money away.
