Trust me - it helps.  I did the same - right after dropping out, within 2 years I was making much more than my friends.  Several years later, my company asked me to apply for a promotion that would have meant a 40% raise.  Got turned down.  Guess why?  I'm back in school now.

I'm working at a pet groomers shop, and I get payed 8 dollars an hour! A list of good jobs you can get (I'm your age, so these are REAL jobs you can possibly get!) \n\nPetsitting and babysitting (you can make your own fees for these jobs)\n\nGarden Nursery\nPet store/grooming shop\nBowling Alley\nDog walking (make your own fees)\nSome fast food restaurants will hire you!\n\nThat's a list of possible places. Also, check with your school district...they will have a sheet of paper listing the complete job options you have. That's what I did in my town's school. Good luck!

NEVER work at a job you hate. Life is to short. Better to make less and be happy.

I would suggest submitting articles to various newspapers, and then seeing what their response is. You will probably get some constructive criticism.\n\nAs for money, take whatever they give you at first. \nWhat's even better than pay? Experience! \nSo even if you get paid peanuts for a job, you can then say at the next job opportunity, "Hey, I've got experience. Take me seriously, and pay me well".\n\nBest of luck.

I'm going to tell you something you don't want to hear because you will think I'm trying to be your mother....\n\nThere really aren't good paying jobs out here without a college education.  Even with a college education, you will not start out with a great salary.  You will need to saty at a job for a while and build up your salary....A company pays you for your experience.  \n\nThe best thing you can do is go to college.  Perhaps you can go part time in the evenings and work during the day.  You could also look at getting a skill or trade.  You really do need some type of education or training.\n\nIf you can't afford college, you could do what I did.  I joined the military (Air Force) and while I was in I went to school...It took me a long time to get my degree but eventually I did it.  I ended up enjoying the military and stayed much longer than I thought I would.  I had a wonderful career, and last year I started a new one with a private company.\n\nThere are possibilities out there, but be sure you look at  your options!  Good Luck to you!

If you continue to do the same thing you will never earn a lot of $$$$, because service or job is for the beginers only. You need to start your business to be a real rich person, i don't want to show you dreams but i am telling you the truth. I am sure now you got an enough experience in the job you are doing so go ahead and start your business. I know you might not be having money to do it this time, so start saving and do remember to invest your savings in stocks till the time you start your business coz this will help you to increase your savings.\nThere are a lot of stocks in the market which can provide you with a good returns and there is a nominal risk, all you need to do is keep your eyes open and invest at right place at right time.\nYou mentioned that you want to earn by hard work i really appreciate that, otherwise there are several ways you can get millions of $$$ in a day.\nI am 19 and going to start my small business in 6 months\nthanks and good luck

Then it's time for you to think different.  Many of us are drilled by our parents go to college so you can get a good job.  Ha! Now I drill into my five children's head start your own business.  I'm sure you think this is a joke, but it's not....email me at rcuevas34@yahoo.com\nThis is the best thing i ever did.  You can afford the start up cost and will get it back sooner than anywhere else I know of.  We have many people in college, or just graduated (one guy on our team just made 20,000 dollars in three months) Email me and I will help you.  Please let me know what State you live in when you email me. Best of luck to you...

Child labor laws made is illegal to employ people under 15 or 16.  You best chance at getting some extra money is working doing chores for neighbors, family, and friends.  Walking dogs, baby sitting, yard work, house-sitting, etc.  You won't find a job that will cut you a paycheck because it is illegal. Since it is the Fall season, you might grab a rake, and go knocking on doors asking if they'd like you to rake up their leaves.  at $10 bucks or so per yard, you could come up with some decent money.  Good luck with the search!

Go to college honey.  Don't waste your time making min wage.  You will regret it.  Nothing in life comes easy, do the time in school, get a good career and wait for the cash to start flowing in.

Go to Florida, but don't expect a handout.  If you learn how to WORK, there will always be a good paying job waiting\nfor you.  It seems so simple to my generation.  How do we get this through to the younger generation when they have examples such as this guy's parents.  Wow.

It sounds like you want the money, insurance and flexible hours.  Yet, you do not like your job.\n\nTo keep the money and insurance, you would have to work for now.  But, if you really dislike your job, perhaps you should look for another job.\n\nAlso, 80% of people leave because they do not like their direct boss.  Is it the job itself, or the people that you do not like?  It might help to understand what about the job you do not like, other than being underpaid.\n\nHere's a quick summary:\n\n1. Understand what it is that you do not like about your current job\n2. Identify what kind of job you would like\n3. Master the skills, if necessary, to perform the job you like\n4. Search for another job

Thanks for your advice. But what's the method could be if you really HATE your job?? I have a good-earnings job which I hate it, and it made me depressed already. I decided several times to change it to my favorite (which has about half-earnings) but I failed due to difficulties of life and the reasonable expectations of my family. Have you any special advice for this case too?\nThanks and Regards

At sixteen you're legally allowed to hold down a regular minimum wage job.  Lot's of people your age get jobs at fast food places, grocery stores, or drug stores.  I worked as a janitor, which was nice because I got to work on my own terms.\n\nPick something.  If it stinks, then pick something else.

My first advice is to ignore the cashcrate.com spammers who will show up.  Cashcrate paid an average of 30 cents per member last month.\n\nWhat you really need to do is find a small business that needs some a hard working, eager to learn employee.  They will be more willing to give you a start than a large employee.\n\nMore job opportunities will open up when you turn 16, be patient.\n\nGood luck

I hate to tell you this hun, but very, very few places will hire 14 year olds.  I actually had a job bussing tables when I was 14, but it was a horrible job for me because the managers were jerks and they didn't treat me very well.  I was also probably too immature at that time to handle a real job.  I would have been better off just babysitting for the summer and waiting a couple years to get a job.  I would say babysitting is your best bet.  I know you said you tried, but it shouldn't be difficult to find babysitting jobs if you really want to.  Take the Red Cross babysitting course, which should make you more marketable.  They will also share your name with people looking for babysitters.  Put an ad in your newspaper, and do a little networking.  Tell people you know (family friends,etc.) that you would like to babysit and ask them to pass your name on to others.  Good luck.

There is a lot of jobs that will pay above minimum, but you always have to start from the bottom if you do not have any experience or education. Just be good at what you do end with time it will pay off.
