Not many hire 15 year olds.  Some are grocery bagging jobs and fast food places, but more and more places don't even want to hire people until they are 18, and the ones who do hire teens usually want 16 year olds or older.  You can try going to fast food places or grocery stores and asking.  Good luck with that, if you do.  You should also see if your school is having a job fair or career fair.  Ask your guidance counselor.  If all else fails, go door to door and ask if people would pay you to help clean.  Save money  and get a mower and hedge clippers and expand to doing yard work.  You might also try babysitting.  While you are at it, check to see if any booths at nearby flea markets or small "mom and pop" stores need help.  You could get a job moving boxes or sweeping floors.  I still advise working for yourself, though-- you can make your own hours, for the most part.  Meanwhile, learn about a trade you could do now.  A pair of twin guys from Antiques Roadshow were collecting antiques and re-selling them when whey were kids.  Good luck with whatever you try!

Babysitting, paper route, lawn mowing, teaching little kids how to use the computer, house or apartment cleaning, camp counselor and maybe tutor. Good luck. Hope you make a ton of money.

hello, i really like your question. this was the same question i had at your age i am 19 and i started earning at the age of 14 itself. the best way you can earn is on your computer with your creative mind. There are several websites which pay you a lot for typing and making small projects and some creative works like Jewelly desinging, All it takes is your hardwork and creative mind...Thanks hope you like my answer

babysitting,. paper route, selling things in a yard sale, walking dogs, doing odd jobs for people, etc.\n\nWhen I was about 14 I put an ad in the paper, Odd jobs - anything you want, $10.00 per hour. I made a few hundred bucks over summer.

This won't be the answer you want but it's my best advice to you.  Wait until summer or until you're closer to 16.  The labor laws in most states are so restrictive on what hours you can work and what you're allowed to do that very few places will even look at your application.  Fast food isn't even the answer anymore.  My suggestion to earn money for now would be small jobs for neighbors (yard work, babysitting, etc.) or possibly tutoring if school is something you're good at.  Good luck!

You have 2-1/2 months to work on that.  If you are too young to work in a traditional job, you could babysit, dogwalk, do odd-jobs for neighbors, sell something that belongs to you, etc.\n\nIf you get an allowance, save every penny of it--if you get a gift of money, save all of it.\n\nGood luck!  Your mom is a lucky one.

The best way to earn money with a small inital startup is to provide a service.  If your willing to do the work there are several options open to you.  Purchase a pressure washer and print out some flyers and leave them in your nieghbors mailboxes.  Mobile car detailing is always a good one too!  Good luck to you...

Mow lawns and don't let them rip you off by giving you $3, charge $10-$20 for a lawn, gas is expensive.\n\nSet up a stand and sell drinks, coolaid is good, it's cheap to make. \n\nIf you work every summer for the next 3 summers and put $3,000 in a saving bond at 7%. You could cash it out when your 65 for around $100,000

Figure out what you really love to do/what you're good at, besides listening to your MP3 player and the Internet. Get your parents permission first.  If you are good with a computer and have some patience, you could instruct senior citizens on how to get around the computer and Internet. Put flyer's up in senior living centers and churches.\n\nIf you there's a Saturday Market or flea market close by and you're creative, you could make something and sell it.  \nI make and sell jewelry, prayer beads and sun catchers at the Saturday Market and through our faith based communities. My daughter is your age and makes stuff she thinks her friends would like then sells along side me at the market.  She and a friend set up a lemonade stand and did really well!  If your parents have a good relationship with a store owner on a main street, ask if you could set up a stand once or twice a week in front of the store.  Pick really busy days. Cold drinks on a hot day sold by a person with a great attitude=$.  \n\nMy daughter had a job for 3 yrs caring for 2 dogs, feed walk and clean up if needed twice a day. The owners were gone often and weeks at a time.  She saved enough money to buy a $500.00 Soap Box Derby Racer Car!\nOffer to sweep floors at local stores and restaurants. Yea, yuk...but it turns green (into money).\n\nThere are websites with ideas. \nThe second site has LOTS of information and Ideas!\nGo for it!

Advertise at the college. Most colleges have boards to post things on. Put on the sign that you want to sell it and how much you want. Best way to do it quick is to put O.B.O.(or best offer. I am sure there are some freshmen kids wanting to get out of the dorm. You might get a bite quick seeing as how summer is coming up!

Define "alot."\n\nAnd, sorry to say, at 14, it is unlikely you will make a lot of money really quickly. \n\nMow lawns. Walk dogs. Wash cars. Babysit. Run errands for elderly people. And next time... think ahead and save before the need is desperate.
