Look up construction companies in your area, they usually will start you off at that amount.  If that is not your idea of decent work, then check your classified ads in the paper and I am sure you will find something.

If your in school, I'd suggest car washes, or allowances, or a job. A summer job could get you some quick money working $5 an hour just lawn mowing or something. Do something old school and simple. Just don't do a lemonade stand. It's a waste of time.

Your best bet is to call around because usually most places hire at age 16, but some will hire you at 15. Try grocery stores, restaurants, retail stores, fast food restaurants. If these don't interest you, you could mow lawns over the summer for people in your neighborhood or you could babysit.

Unfortunately, there aren't many things available that's legal to hire anyone under 16, and even then it's restricted to menial labor jobs. You're best bet is to become self-employed. Decide what you want to do, use your pc to create a leaflet to distribute in the area you want to work in, post it at some approiate places, can also create some personal business cards and pass them out. If tutoring appeals to you, leave a business card at grade schools, child care facilities, ect. \n\nLawn service, $10-$30 for mowing, same for leaf raking and disposal more for a large area, less for small area\n\npet service (walking dogs, tending to pets when their owner's are away, ect), Should be minimum wage, or whatever you can negociate\n\nnewspaper delivery, (200 papers @ $.10 per = $20 per day\n\ntutoring younger students, baby-sitting, house-sitting (watering flowers, ect) = earn while you learn, you can do your home work and tutor at the same time\n\nwashing cars, snow removal if you live where it snows, cleaning snow off of one driveway can earn you $20-$30, \n\nThe problem employers have with hiring teenages is insurance,  liability laws and child labor laws. Apparently there's exceptions for migrant farm workers, or the laws are not enforced as stringently as they are for US citizens.

If your 16 and need a job, there a lots of ways to go out and look for a job. You could just go walk into to a place and ask if there hiring. You could look on- line. The best thing to do though is to look in the newspaper, call ahead for a meeting, then amaze them! The most important thing of all is to act like you really want the job, AND DONT BE SHY!

Apply to restaurants as a hostess...you don't have to be 18 for this normally and it gets your foot in the door so that you can later become a waitress if you choose too.\nA grocery store or other store as a cashier.\nDeliver newspapers.\nBabysit.\nOr you could volunteer somewhere you would be interested in working and eventually use the experience you have gained to apply for a job!

You should be able to work almost anywhere at 15-1/2.  Just don't work at a clothing store or in retail.  You get minimum wage because it's a "cool" job, and you'll end up recycling your money on clothes you wouldn't have bought w/o the mediocre discount you get.  Restaurant work is the best, and a lot of restaurants tip positions like host, carryout, etc. (Try to chains and work your way up)

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.

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!

There are several people in my organization who are only 17, and are making more than $100 a day.  Everything is done on the internet, and no-one asks your age.\n\nThis is something you could get started now, and would continue to be a suppliment to your main career indefinitely.  It could even replace your day job in the future and help you to retire really really early!\n\nEmail me if you are interested in my specific organization, or find reliable sources for several of those types of jobs at this site.

You have to find out what the rules are in your state. If you can work at 15 a good place to find employment is at a golf course. There are many jobs to do there that are fun and interesting. If you can not get a job in the workplace. Babysitting, newspaper carriers (if they stillexisist in your state) or cutting lawns are all goodways of earning extra cash. They keep you outside and you don't have to say, "Would you like fries with that?"

Be a server.  Since you are only 15, it will have to be somewhere that does not serve alcohol.  It is the best money you will make.\n\nGrocery stores are fun too.  I would never do fast food.

There are ways, but they're usually scams. And you almost ALWAYS have to pay an upfront fee. So I suggest the good old fashioned out-of-house job. It's not that bad. I didn't get a job until I got to college, and then I started working 12 hours a week and it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought even though I hadn't had previous working experience. It's also a great way to meet new people and get away from your parents every now and then.\n\nAs for at home jobs, if you prefer, you can try babysitting and dogsitting (if your house is baby/dog-proof). Try not to limit your sources. It's always good to get out in the workforce when you can and just be active. Don't be a homebody! lol!\n\nPS: Why do you want to make specifically $92? Why not just round it up and say "around $100/week" or something? Just curious. But that's a lot of money to try and make in just one week. Even I normally only get around $100 every TWO weeks working 20 hours.
