Make babysitting flyers using the computer and put them in the library, people’s mailboxes, and grocery stores.

Drum up more business and keep a notebook to schedule when you do get a customer.

Culver’s minimum hiring age is 14 with a workers permit.

I called many stores because I am 14 looking for a job. This was the response they gave which makes me happy after looking for so long.

Find a local one go online and apply and go in store to apply or call and ask if they are hiring.

What I did was Google a bunch of business near my home and found their numbers using Google maps or their sites and I called and directly asked if they are hiring and what age do they hire at.

Try local grocery stores, pizza parlors, retail stores, fast food restaurants.

It looks like you have been searching for months now. So have a lot of other people. I have personally found the best way to make money from home is to start a home based business. Not to try and get a home based “job” They only pay minimum wage because the gas expense is not there to have to accommodate. If you do decide to get involved with a home job, you will quickly learn that this low paying home “jobs” your expenses won’t be met. Meaning, mortgage (or if you rent), food, toiletries etc.

If you really want to work from home, I suggest you start your own home based business. The income opportunity is incredible in home based business. You just need to find one that you’d enjoy getting involved in. Most home based business cost under $500. Some cost more depending on what it is you want to do. There are a lot of different types of Home based businesses, from Child Daycare Centers, to Plumbing, Home Decor, Catering, Telecommunications, Candle Making, Travel agents etc etc.

I created a blog on my 360 page on home based businesses. There’re over half a dozen different ones to take a look at for some ideas. I don’t know what your interests are, so I’ll give you some information on what my husband and I started over six years ago and point you out to some others to take a look at. Ours well supports our family of six. We have four children ages 10, 6, 3 and 1. The reason why we decided to work at home and not in an office. To be with our kids. It is also becoming a major funding source for non-profit organizations.
We got involved in the telecommunications industry with a world wide company that’s over 15 years old. We’ve been featured in several magazines like USA Today, Success, Fortune etc. Inc 500 rated us the 22nd fastest growing company. They offer services that people use every day and pay for anyway, but now they can have a lower cost. Services such as local and long distance phones, Internet, digital phones, video phones (you can see the person your taking to live)VOIP, Satellite TV, and all the major cellular phone companies like Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, Alltell, Nextell etc. Have partnered up with them too.
How many people do you know, or know of, that uses one or more of these services? How would you feel if you could save people money on services that they’re already using then every time they pay their bills each month, you make a percentage every single month. Huge income opportunity. It’s incredible how much money is involved in this industry.

Hmmm… High priced restock shops are (the ones where you can get the most unbuyables for dirt cheap) :
*weopons
*furniture
*petpet
*magic

You could reset your sell point, though that would be a gigantic risk as well could take a very long time for the stocks to reach the level you’d like it to. I tend to keep mine around 45 unless I know it’s a good stock. I assume you already know about neodaq and all that.

Another decent way to make NP is by purchasing items at a “resellers price” from the chat boards and the reselling at the trading post or auction for an inflated price. This may take some time to find a buyer for the item though it often ends up worth it.

Good luck!

The THREE MOST easiest and fastest ways to make money in the Massive online Role-playing Game called Runescape is:

1.Mining For Money
One way to make a lot really fast is to to get high enough and mine a lot of coal. This works really fast if you sell each for 250-400gp at max. This is how I got rich in the game pluss i normally save a few for myself. (instead of mining in the dwarven mines, I mined in Al Karid because there are less people there plus there isn’t a stupid scorpion king that messes around with your mining)

2.Big Bones Big Cash
A second way to make cash fast (even if you are not a member) is to get high enough so you can kill hill giants in varock because they sometimes give you about 50gp but they always give you a big bone witch sell for a lot to people that want to get up their prayer. You should sell them for about 200-300gp max.

3.Fishing for treasure:
Last that takes a high skill is fishing for lobsters and when high enough you can harpoon for spear. You should fish on that one island where there are bananas(Karmaja). My sugestion is actually selling the fish there on the island so you are not wasting 30gp each time that you transport between the port and the island.(sell them at the general store there.
This one requires fufilling a quest:
Magic stone selling

You have to finish the Rune Mysteries quest which alows you to mine for rune essance. In varock there is a magic shop south of the east bank. There you talk to the person and he will teleport you to the rune essance. (rune ess takes almost no time at all to collect, so this is a good way to make money) After collecting a lot of rune ess(as people like to call it for short) you can sell it to mages in the bank for 100-250gp max.
Other:

There are many other ways for making money. Like comparing prices in stores like for a sword that is in a general store that costs lets say 50 to buy. Well if you went and checked the price to sell to the sword store nearby is 100 because there are none in stock. So make sure that you check your prices wisely.

I hope this works.
Have fun playing runescape!!!

Nagesh answers:

How you invest in a 401(k) has ZERO to do with “how long you plan to be there” and EVERYTHING to do with your age/how many years it is until you retire; the essence of a 401(k) is that you are investing (tax-deferred) equal dollar amounts regardless of market conditions…..THEREFORE…..the longer it is till you plan to retire, the more volatile your investment choice should be (so long as its long-term trend is up)…

Why?

Imagine you are buying cans of tuna fish and saving them up to eat after you retire….if they go “on sale”, you’d want to buy extra…if the price spikes, you’ll want to buy fewer that week….that way you’ll get the most “bang for your buck” overall…

You DON’T have to pull out your 401(k) balance when you leave a job, but it’s often a good idea to “Roll it over” into an IRA account that gives you all the same tax benefits (except the “match”) and thus avoids taxes eating all the gains you may have made…

If you are under 30 (and I have five bucks says you are!), put 100% of your regular contributions into whatever “Growth stock” option your account offers, and DON’T LOOK for 4-5 years, until you leave…

Best wishes!

Nagesh answers:

Some of the smartest people in the world can’t beat the market, even those trained in the field. First you don’t really “play” the market, unless you want to for fun. You’ll have to have a job of some type that covers your bills if you want to put the $10,000 to work. Right now is a tricky time to start investing. Some of the smartest investors our there are diametricly opposed to what’s next for the stock market. Some say we continue on upward from here as the recession is “officially” over. Some are calling for a double dip, where 2008 and into early 2009 were just a prelude of the carnage to come. Still others say we will be about flat for another decade like Japan – 2 “lost decades” So, get that job first, so you live while you figure out what to do with the money. Keep it safe until you learn more by reading and talking to others who invest. I’d put my $10000 in short to medium term U.S. Treasuries. You can easily do so through a low cost mutual fund like Vanguard. But if you want to wing it, and gamble you could try some of the new ETF’s (exchange traded funds) that trade based on the VIX, a measure of volatility. So whether prices are going up or down as long as they’re moving fast you make money. This happens in panics on days when the dow loses 500 points and on euphoric days when some piece of news convinces everyone they just have to have a piece of that market right now! So, a wild, choppy, ride – you make money; stocks float around a narrow range you lose money. It’s more complicated, but thats a basic pictures of what happens. Good Luck.

If you’re in the Philadelphia area, there’s likely plenty of snow to get rid of on people’s drives and sidewalks! That should make you some quick cash. Grab your shovels and go around the neighborhoods. This can be a fun way to earn some money!

Nagesh answers:

DONT CLICK or try to sign onto any websites for money, most are scams. There are plently of online sites to make real money, but you usually have to be 18 or older.

I would take up odd jobs around the neighborhood. Put up a flyer at your local grocery store about how your looking for extra cash, and maybe some old lady will give you $40.00 to rake her leaves or do some other easy thing to make quick money. Then stock it away in a savings account. Or loan it to your parents and let them give you interest on your money. Then they will give you lets say $250.00 for that $200 you let them borrow 2 months ago… Money for money, gotta love this world.

Nagesh answers:

Hi,

These kind of sites (self called “fast ways of making money online”) are not worth in any single case – except for the owner(s). Forget about sites like get paid for clicks, surveys, reading mails, trying trials, downloads/uploads…

The only way to make money online is through internet marketing and owning your own website from which you generate traffic and than convert that traffic to the money. Using services like Google AdSense and promoting affiliate products.

It might be difficult for you to make money online simply because you are not old enough and that requires a lot of experience or/and money (which you probably do not have).

Also, all such services/products are restricted to 18+ people – capable to own credit card.

Good luck

I’d like to know as well, i used to do some a few years back but cant remember the names of them now lol They aren’t all scams, as i remember one i did was about TV programmes, and i ended up with over £20 of amazon vouchers which i spent and another i remember doing got paid into my paypal account 🙂 So there are legit ones out there but you do have to sift through the sh1t to find them 🙁

I feel for your situation and hope that things work out well for you soon.

As for your question there are many legit paid survey and other similar sites that you can make a few dollars from, but you will not make a full time living from them!

Having said that if you are still interested I regularly read a blog I found while searching technorati that reviews these kinds of programs. If you are interested the address is:

There is tons of information so take your time and be prepared for a bit of reading.

Most survey sites are scams. There are some legit sites but they pay very little. You might make 20 quid after 6 months to a year.

Nagesh answers:

Taking surveys is very easy once you get the hang of it.. My two favorite sites are here: http://www.freewebs.com/whowantsmoney/ . But if you want money fast, I recommend the second one because the first one only pays once a month.

Nagesh answers:

Don’t listen to the other people. The best way to make money for someone your level is the 26k trick. Get a friend, and carry around 76k, while they carry 26k. They should let you kill them. You can big drops ranging from 30k-6mil ! Then you carry the 26k and let them kill you. You should make big money this way, and so will your friend.

If you don’t like the 26k trick as many people don’t, you could try skilling. If you have 90+ woodcutting you could cut magics. Those are good money. Try fishing, woodcutting, or even mining if you got a high enough level.

Lastly try Green Dragons. You may have to worry about revs there so just run to clan wars if your attacked.

Hope this helped.

At your mining level, I would mine coal ores which sell for around 290gp each, at level 60 mining, mine coal and mithril in the mining guild in falador, and at level 70 mining mine addy ores which are worth 1270gp each ore in the mining guild. After a long time of getting rich from mining, mine the runite ores in the Wilderness, which are worth 16,200gp each!!!

Nagesh answers:

ALL I CAN SAY IS YOU GUYS ARE REALY POOR

i mean, serusly, 2k? 40k an hour?

But it realy depends on how much money u have, or ur stats.

If u hav 61+range, or decent melee stats, (70+), go atk the blue dragons in taverly dungeon. One dragon drops about 5k of stuf (dhide/dbones), so depending on how fast u kill tats ur money. I hav 80 range + void, so one full bag (13 drags, 26 spaces) takes like 15 min, and thats 70k, so i make 280k/hr.

If ur not as good, feel free to take ur melee/range (not mage, as the profit is too low) and go atk the fleshcrawlers in the security of stronghld, or druids of wildy dungeon/taverly dungeon. They drop irit, ranarr, snapdragon, dwarf weed, etc, decent herbs. Wear a ring of wealth to maximise ranarrs.
(for the guy who made 2k offa logs, one ranarr is 9k)
this method makes about 100-150k/hr with a ring of wealth

another good way is to use a ring of wealth and atk moss giants, there r two in the edgeville dungeon. They drop ranarr seeds, which ppl favor a lot (45k) however, snapdragon seeds are 70k. Decent money, not recomended over druids, but good if this is ur slayer.

I recognize i haven’t considered u as a non mem, so in that case:
cockroack workers/soldiers drop a lota nature runes and other runes, which u cud make about 50k/hr. If ur lucky, note that the cockroach soldiers(83) can drop rune med helms, chainbodys, and scimmies, which will be fairly rare (1/250) without a wealth. But if ur a mem do not use these guys, as there r better

if ur mem, u can also wc willows until u hav 45 wc, and maples sel for decent money, 45 gp each. Or u can get to 60 wc, and cut yews (500gp). At 75 wc, magics sel for 1.5keach. However, if ur wc is between 60&70, do not wc yews, as it wil be 2 slow. At 71wc up stik with yews. Unless ur 85+wc, yews will be faster than magics, because magics are really hard to cut. At 99 wc, magics can make around 500k/hr.

1) why do you need money for dinner? Can’t you eat at home with the family?
2) school doesn’t start for another month or so, so you need anything “for school” right now
3) what’s with buying new clothes for school? What’s wrong with the clothes you’re wearing now or even last year?
4) you do have money in the bank, so if you feel that you have to spend money on the above items, then spend your own money

Your parents have to cut back on non-essentials now until one of them finds another job. In this economy, once you lose your job, who knows when another one will come along so don’t take your parents for granted that they have tons of money for you to waste on stuff you can really do without. It’s time to start recycling and re-using stuff that’s really has nothing wrong with them instead of going out and buying something new.

Nagesh answers:

Scrap the idea of marketing affiliate x and go with making money with Adsense.

Setting up your own website and using SEO is the best way to make money online. Selling Adsense space on your site will allow you to monetize the site and make money.

Search traffic is by FAR the highest converting type of traffic and that’s where you can make money. In other words, traffic from Google and other keyword-based search engines will get you more clicks (or sales if that’s your game) than you can get from any other source. If you can learn to get traffic from Google and other search engines, you’ll never struggle to make money online. That’s the honest truth, and the best way to make money online.

Use Google’s Keyword Tool to find paying keywords. Paying keywords are keywords that are worth the investment in ranking high in Google. Going after the keyword “loans” is crazy and you’ll be wasting your time because it’s too competitive. Huge companies pay thousands of dollars a month, or even more, and have unlimited resources to rank high for keywords like that. You’ll waste your precious time and money.

You need to know how to calculate the potential income a keyword can produce and you need to know whether you can get your site to get listed in Google for the keyword. If
both of those variables align, you have a winning (as in profitable) keyword.

Search a keyword and refine the search by “exact” match. Then sort the search by two categories: Search Volume (Global), and CPC (Cost per click). Download the .csv file into Excel and hack it down into three colums. “Keywords, Search Volume, and CPC”. In that order. Then setup a fourth column and put a title in that first cell of the fourth column “Potential Income”. In the first cell below “Potential Income”, (should be D2) type this: “=” then click on B2, then type “*.4” then type “*” then click on C2, then type “*.25” then type “*.05”. If that’s confusing, here’s the formula for finding income potential for keywords:

(Search Volume x 40%) x (CPC x 25%) x 5% = Monthly Income Potential of a
Keyword

“=B2*.4*C2*.25*.05”

Hit enter, and you should get a dollar amount in the fourth column. Copy that formula and paste it all the way down the column until you see dollar amounts all the way down. Then sort the whole spreadsheet by the fourth column, or Income Potential. Get rid of all keyword rows that are less than $50/month potential. Don’t waste your time. Also, if you have a pretty general keyword you might have some extravagant numbers like $20,000/month. Don’t bother. Only big companies with huge resources are able to rank for a keyword like that.

Now comes the fun part. Using either Firefox SEO or Google Toolbar, do a search at Google.com for each keyword in your list. Each resulting page should have a PageRank number next to it, or “PR”. Look at the first four sites that come up from that search. If any of those are PR4 or higher, don’t bother wasting time and resources to rank high for that keyword. You want sites that are PR0, PR1, PR2, or PR3 in the top four in Google for your keyword. That way, using single links from single sites and blogrolls, you can easily get ranked first in Google for your keyword and make money online, virtually hands free.

Sorry if this is a long explanation, but I believe people deserve real, concrete information when deciding to make money online. See the links below for much, much more information.

Ive got some great money saving ideas.

Here’s how to save money: Stay away from tobacco, alcohol, & drugs. Stop drinking sodas/energy drinks & replace them with tap water. Start growing/hunting your own food instead of buying frozen junk/fastfood. Using CFL or LED bulbs in your house will save money on electricity. Just don’t spend money on anything frivolous/destructive that doesn’t benefit you, last long, or help you make more $.
Then some ways to make money besides getting a job are recycling cans & unwanted metal, selling books & DVDs to book stores, garage sales, & looking for coins in vending machines & loose change around your house.

Avoiding the junk listed above will not only save money at the counter, it’ll save you from future medical bills & it’ll make you healthier making you a better worker.

Nagesh answers:

You can babysit if you are into that. I used to take a neighbors kids down to the park 2 times a week because they didn’t have the time to go themselves.

Or you can help people with small things, especially older people, or business type people.
Older people may need help with yard work, or grocery shopping. If you live close to a store and can pick up groceries you could probably make some good money from people who are not able to get to the store, either because they are older and it is hard for them, or because they are just too busy and they are willing to pay someone else to run errands. I know I can always use help with laundry and yard work.
I don’t know how small your town is, but it might work. Also during Holidays you can offer decorating services. I read online about a company that makes really good money with yard and house decorations, especially during Christmas, but 4th of July should be good too. Of course they provided decorations also, but you should still be able to do this. Many people don’t have the time to do that, but would like to.
Mowing lawns, raking leaves, scrubbing driveways, sweeping sidewalks, etc. All old fashioned teen jobs in the neighborhood.

Maybe there is a local business, such as an automotive shop, pet store, etc. Where you can apprentice. I think you have to be 16 to get a real part time job, but there are many places you can help out at for some extra cash. We have an auto shop and a young kid used to come around and sweep, mop, put away oil, etc. The gas station next door has a guy that comes around a few times a week and sweeps by the pumps, empties the trash, cleans the bathrooms. It’s little extra work that a business doesn’t have enough of to hire someone, but could use a hand every now and then. You can learn alot of stuff and get some money too.

You could wash dogs, walk dogs, clean up dog pooh lol. It depends on what you are interested in doing, but random stuff like that. Pass out some flyers, you can get a bunch of them for just a few bucks printed at a printshop after designing it on your computer. Put them around the neighboor hood and offer your services, whatever you are willing to do. Once you get a few customers they will probably mention you to other neighbors as well.
As for price, I would just set it around 5 dollars an hour, after all you can’t get min wage since you are not paying taxes and such, so 5 dollars is good for work like this. Or you can have people give you prices, like I’ll pay you 30 dollars to decorate my yard and you can decide if you want to do it or not.

Some ideas others have tried
Off-site:
1.Our school is letting us do a “Hat Day” where everyone brings in a dollar and if they do they get to wear a hat of their choice for the day

On-Site:
2. Our theme is circus/carnival so we will be selling cotton candy and lemonade and then we will have carnival games such as bean bag toss and we will charge a dollar a game I think.

Although it is probably too late for this semester, go to your school’s student website or financial aid office, and fill out the paperwork for a direct deposit of your financial aid refund. Most schools issue their refund checks at the end of the add drop week. If you have direct deposit, the amount will show up in your bank account on the first Monday or Tuesday AFTER the first week of school is over. If you did not request a deposit, the school will send out a check on the same day, which will arrive in the mail within two weeks of the send date.

I typically advise students without stable addresses, to leave their parents’ address as their permanent mailing address. If you didn’t do that, it is possible that the check will be sent to your old address. Make sure that you file a forwarding address form with your post office, and you should still get your check fairly quickly.

Hope this helps.

They really do not have any emotional attachment to you so you don’t have to ‘let them off gently’ , They probably won’t even get upset if you were to told them to get lost. So that is what you should do, especially if that character is ugly, lol. Eg. Maplestory. They’re probably tryna reap some benefits from you, such as asking for money or as you said, sex.

I grind missions sometimes, it’s where you do a mission over and over again loads of times racking up money and experience.
It’s very useful but turns rather boring after a while.

I do the mission Coveted, it’s about 5 minutes long, you get $12,000, and slowly get up your flying skill.
It helps if you use a sniper rifle as it hurries it up a little more.

So you don’t have to search for it on the map and travel; go to Online-Jobs-Host Job-Rockstar Made-Missions-Coveted.

Nagesh answers:

Starting a charity is a noble goal, but keep in mind that it can be expensive if you want to have a formal non-profit organization. In the US, most people hire an attorney to file the necessary paperwork with the IRS to get 501 (c)(3) status. It’s a lengthy process and can cost several thousand dollars.

However, you can have a charity project without getting 501(c)(3) status. The main difference is that people’s donations won’t be tax deductible. And, while there are many grants you can apply for, many require that you do have the IRS non-profit status to be eligible to apply.

You should also consider an online crowdfunding project. There are several sites where, for a percentage of what you raise, you can use the power of crowdfunding to your advantage. You put your cause online, tell people on the site what you are trying to raise money for, then promote the fundraiser by sharing a link to the online crowdfunding fundraiser to all of your social media contacts. People go to the site, give $5 or $10 (or more!) through their credit cards in a secured transaction, and you get the money you need!

Crowdfunding is generally described as getting a lot of small donations from a large number of people. Using the power of social networks, it is easy to get a great fundraiser going through a crowdfunding site and raise money quickly without having to do car washes and bake sales and the other time consuming old fashioned ways of raising money.

Nagesh answers:

Are you in need of money immediately, or are you looking for long term salary?

Short term – contact your local printers and see if they know anyone that can use your typing services. Sure, you can do student papers, except you are a student, right? That kind of goes with your schedule is the same schedule as the students who need papers done, and you need to sleep at night. (Typing student papers is for someone who doesn’t mind staying awake all night and it doesn’t affect the day time job. Lol)

Put an ad in your weekly shoppers paper for typing services, but you have to know what you’re doing before you start. I’ve done it. There are a lot of wackos out there and you’re letting some of them into your house. (My hubby is very big and scary looking – he’s a sweety, but he’s so big he’s scary looking, if you don’t know him – so I was safe. Lol) You can actually make very good money typing at home on your own, but you have to treat it like a real business, do all the corporation business stuff, get ready for the taxes issues, know how to charge, learn how to market, and learn how to use the money you get to reinvest in the business to make it profitable.

You can also make good money doing other stuff too, but it takes a lot of effort and 6-18 months before it becomes profitable. (I’m not saying you make no money in that time, but the money you make has to go back into the business to make it profitable.) You can make a blog or website that’s profitable, or learn SEO, or learn how to make web pages or learn how to write short articles for companies looking for articles for their blogs and/or websites. All that stuff is like typing at home, you have to learn how to do it, learn how to treat it like a business…and all the other stuff I wrote before.

Or, you can do the make phone calls at home for the hope of commission, too. That one depends on what you’re voice sounds like (and you need your own separate line.) If you have a kid’s voice, no one will use you. If you have a mature voice, call your local real estate offices and see if you can cold call to sell houses. (Again, you have to learn how to do it, before doing it.) No, seriously. Not kidding. One of hubby’s coworkers did that and every time he found someone willing to sell their house by cold calling, when the real estate people sold the house, he got a 2% commission. Do the math. Few houses cost less than $100,000. Most cost more. 2% of $100,000 – $2,000. (Did you just do the obvious and decide to focus on houses worth a million? Lol That’s the idea. Find the big buck houses and you get paid a better commission. Lol)

Or, if you’re moral compass allows for it, there is also those sex lines. That’s done from the woman’s own home, and they pay really well. (I would have been good at it, but it is against my beliefs to do it. Lol)

But, you want to work at home with the abilities you have now. The reason I know how to do a small fraction of this kind of stuff, is because I was willing to research it myself and figured out what I’d do with the info. You have to, too.

Nagesh answers:

Good for you!!! I love to see teens who are so focused. Starting now is really going to give you an advantage. I wasn’t a kid millionaire but I built my businesses from the bottom up and I can tell you what I did.

The very first thing is to find a need and fill it. Something that is a trend will make fast cash but is very risky. Too many fail but you don’t hear much about those. Go with something for the long term. At least semi long term as you have to keep up with marketing trends.

Your SBA (small business administration) should have tons of info to get you started and may even offer free classes. If not, the classes don’t cost that much. See if your parents can finance that for you as you definitely need to know some of the basics. You’re a smart girl and can take what you learn and research further on your own.

Then start your research as to who will be your target market and what the demographics are for the location you want to target. You need to start working on a business plan and the SBA will help you with that too. You can take your plan to them and they will go over it and help you improve it.

Then you look for investors and/or funding. This is tricky. It depends on what you want to do. If you have an item that isn’t on the market, you need to get it copyrighted first, then start researching a patent. That can be expensive and it’s usually where people stop. Apply for a patent so you have patent pending rights. Don’t use one of those commercial companies that promise to get patents for you. It’s a waste of money. You will need to find someone to research the patent though eventually.

There is other funding available too. Hit the library for the best help. Private investors are out there but they will want to take control of your business. You may have to let them for a first business in order to learn from their expertise. Private investors will only go with a sure thing so if you get one (or more) then you know you hit on something.

However, there is other funding to be had and so you will need to research all resources to see what criteria you fit. I did not have rich parents or much cash but it can be done. The first rule in business is you never invest your own money. It’s worked for some but that’s the fastest way to lose it too. You have no way of knowing if you will get a return. If you have other sources of funding, they aren’t going to give it to you unless they think you have a great chance of succeeding.

Then you can take your item to trade shows where companies go around and look at new items. Find the shows in trade journals related to your item. You need to set up a really nice presentation and work your behind off getting contacts. Be really outgoing and talk to everyone. Print up your own business cards to save money and hand those out to everyone. Then ask for theirs. You will need to make follow up calls and letters to those you think might be able to help you.

Unless you have the money or can find the investors, your best bet is to sell off your mfg rights to someone else. Then you need a lawyer to negotiate for you. Get the highest price. With that money, you can work on your next project and look for mfg yourself.

If you have an item that you can produce yourself, such as an online business, then you can skip some of those steps. But first go to the SBA and get their help. It will be invaluable to you. And good luck! I shouldn’t say luck. Lol It takes knowing what people need, coming up with something to fill that need, developing the idea, and working as hard as you can. Believe in yourself and don’t give up. My first two businesses failed ( from lack of planning and know-how, I let others take my ideas and they ran with them) but I now own 3 and want to start 2 more. The ideas just keep coming but I abandon 100 times as many.

Edit: If you plan to go into anything like fashion or jewelry or accessories, it helps immensely if you can get a well-known person to wear your item. This takes a lot of grit unless you know someone. You can’t just write to magazine editors, they get 1,000s of these kinds of letters and you will waste too much money sending free products. Try smaller like radio stations. Get to know the people there. They might now someone or be affiliated with a larger station. Try to get invited to parties, promotions, etc. As a teen, you would make a good story so go with that angle and try to get interviews on radio and in newspapers. Hopefully a larger station will pick it up. Then you will have the opportunity to meet some well-known people and ask if they would consider your item as a gift. Never just flat out ask if they would wear it. You put them on the spot and make them uncomfortable. If they like it, they WILL wear it. If they don’t, then it’s back to the drawing board. If no one is wearing your item or wants to use them, get their feedback as much as possible so you can fix any issues.

Edit2: There’s so much I could tell you but it would take me much longer than this. But I’m trying to hit the biggest points. If you have an item that can be sold in stores, try the smaller stores first. Family owned businesses or one-owner ones. Ask if you can consign a few of your items. If they sell, they will want more. Once you have a few months track record, you can take that to larger stores. Ask for the buyers. Present your product and your sales reports. Again ask if you can either consign a few or if they will buy them outright. And again if they sell, they will want more. Then you keep moving up. In that way, someone WILL notice your products and want to get in on the action. This is where you have to be very careful and not sign away your business if there is a chance you can do it on your own. You need a lawyer to help you with this part. On the otherhand, you can’t have your business stop right there either. So there is always some risk. That’s the fun part for me.

I get my dogs fixed but I don’t have them neutered, I have the vet do a vasectomy. If they want they can still mate with a femae dog but can’t get her to have puppies.

Most owners get them neutered to ‘calm them down’ and make them stop marking aside from so they can’t have puppies.

I’ve seen nautered dogs who are nuts and dogs who aren’t neutered who are very layed back. As to marking if you train your dog well an unneutered dog wont pee on everything, I’ve seen many a neutered dogs who pee on everything.

Don’t get your dogs bits chopped off, get him a vasectomy it’s also safer for the dog and a much shorter stay in the way of beeing knocked out, and the dog will be running around an healed much faster.

There are far to many unwanted puppies in the world but that doesn’t mean dogs don’t want to be able to mate still. It’s like saying that people who don’t want kids should have the husband cut his off.

The first time I see a guy have his cut off so they don’t get their wife knocked up will be when I allow the idea of cutting off a dog’s to be ok.

With the right training any dog can be a wonderful dog get him into two or three basic classes at your local kennel club, normally around $60 for eight one hour a week classes.

Many people just don’t train their dog and are lazy so anything like the idea of neutering their dog to make it so they don’t have to spend the time nad money training it is a good idea to them.

EDITED TO ADD: So what are your goals for this class? Process or product? Do you want them to be able to follow a commercial pattern, or is it more of a design and engineering mindset? What’s the ethos of your school (lots of community service or more traditional sewing for yourself?) How long do you have them for?

Right now in my area of the world, remodeling jeans and t-shirts, trimming basic tote bags and adding ipod pockets to everything seems to be hot, judging by the questions the local kids ask me.

If vests are in (and I never know), a simple lined vest is only a couple of hours for the beginners I’ve taught if I teach them commercial bagged lining methods. The fusible interfacing is what gives them the biggest problems. (Try Connie Crawford’s Guide to Fashion Sewing for the instructions). A thrift shop sportcoat or blazer usually has enough salvageable shell fabric and lining for a vest at a reasonable cost.

Crawford also has her new “Studio Sewing Skills” dvd out, with a student packet of materials for basic techniques
http://www.butterick.com/item/CC770.htm??tab=connie_crawford&page=2
http://www.butterick.com/item/CC771.htm??tab=connie_crawford&page=3

Students at at least two of the local high schools have to complete X hours of community service — some of the local students sew lined, drawstring stockings for the Fill A Stocking project, and three students made over a hundred zippered duffles for local foster kids (and they got really good at setting sport zippers and pocket zippers!).

Have you looked at Nancy Restuccia’s book, Hold it! It’s out of print but available in CD form now, but it’s also common library fodder. She has a number of interesting bags with instructions written in plain English. You can get a sample of her writing style here in the classic tote: http://www.make-it-easy.com/opentot2.html Her Humbug Bag is very fast, and you could teach the actual quilting process with it easily by quilting before construction. I think I know Nancy well enough to say that if you wanted to use that pattern, it could be made available on favorable terms.
(Humbug bags, btw, in the smallest sizes, make great Christmas tree ornaments). If I catch a couple of the kids around here who sew I’ll try to find out from them what other things are hot right now in this area.

I know that supply money is often tight for some students — have you considered making needs known to local ASG groups or quilt guilds? I’ve cleaned out a lot of old stash to local schools — all of the zippers in the duffles came from a local jobber offering a grocery sack of sport zippers for $1

Are you the teacher, or the student? I’m from the era when (if there was home ec and shop), everybody had to take a semester of each. The guys I knew got to make cool stuff like tents and sleeping bags, and the women had to make aprons and skirts. :-p

So… Whaddya want to make? Stuff for yourself or stuff for someone else? Fancy socks? Backpacks? Totes? Fishing vests? Project Linus quilts? Heartwarmer coats? Tactile balls for preschoolers? Stuffed animals for the local cops to give stressed-out little kids? Big totes for foster kids who otherwise wind up carrying their posessions in garbage bags?

It’s not fair, but it’s true.

You may be among the most qualified fitness professionals. But that doesn’t always translate to being among the best paid.

In fact, many fitness professionals and personal trainers — less educated and deserving than you — may be doing much better.

If you already know this, but thought you just were not “equipped” to make the money you deserve, then I have some very important news.

In today’s competitive fitness market, only trained, savvy fitness professionals earn the major dollars. The rest scrape by — barely.

There is an art to being a top-paid fitness professional … To programs that have high-paying clients come to you … To the systems, strategies, and “tools” that bring in new clients … And we can share the secrets of that art with you!

The Boxing Fitness Institute will now let you in on one of the hottest trends in fitness, where demand for qualified trainers is huge, and wealthy clients are willing to pay you handsomely for your time.
And now you can join in the FUN and INCOME even if:

1. Even if….You are completely new to the fitness industry, or just thinking about getting started.
2. Even if….You currently offer the same old, generic weight lifting and aerobic-style programs that everyone else offers.
3. Even if….You hate to sell and market.
4. Even if….You don’t have marquee “Hollywood-style” clients.

None of that matters.

In fact, you need NO SPECIAL BACKGROUND … Virtually no money to put at risk … Only a little bit of time … And the willingness to follow very easy-to-understand instructions.

And when we say this is THE quickest and easiest way for you to succeed as a fitness professional and attract all the clients you can handle, we’re not kidding about that either, because…

What we’ve discovered about succeeding as a fitness professional and making more money than your colleagues is that it’s all about…

A Unique In-Demand Fitness Program and a Proven Marketing System

These two keys are a miraculous money-making strategy because:

1. Clients come to you, because they want to get in shape with your specialized program.
2. You set yourself apart as the “go-to” fitness professional in your area.
3. People refer you to others even if they haven’t hired you yet, because what you do is so unique and interesting.
4. Marketing is easy, and takes little or no money.
5. There are no sales pitches to make.
6. You enjoy attracting people to your business, and work becomes more FUN and SATISFYING.

Please please please dont get a horse for young kids under 10.
They will more than likely lose interest after a few years or after the novelty has worn off, and if they get them they have to be expected to care for them properly, and this is a serious amount of work, if you cant find anywhere to keep them and look after them you do realise you will have to be there to take care of them at around 7am every morning to clean out their stables, feed them, groom them, fresh water, let them out if necessary, take them out for exercise, check them for any medical issues everyday, this is a huge amount of work alone and a huge cost, the equipment, vets bills for horses are extremly expensive, even the basic vaccinations cost alot, upkeep, the food, new riding gear for your kids, insurance etc etc.
The cost usually varies depending on how much the person wants to charge, my family kept horses at our stables and we charged upwards of 300 a month to look after them, and this was a few years ago.
Horses are content being around other horses, however they need the attention from their owners aswell, just like dogs, they need regular exercise, something they dont get with other horses in a field, they need grooming care everyday to prevent lice, matting etc.
Horses are a tremendous amount of work and effort and cost.
You would be much better off waiting until they are older and more able to take on some of the responsibility of caring for the horse themselves, i dont know how many riding lessons they have taken but for safety reasons i would say that it is sensible for them to have alot of experience around horses before getting one, i know some places offer volunteer openings during the summer, or if u have to pay that extra more for riding lessons it would be in the long run alot more effective.

And to the girl above, horses cannot be trained to stay in any set area without a fence, or if you know a way to do that, sell it and make millions and ponies are fine but turn into big 600lbs horses real quick, the smaller horses [shetlands] would be fine until your kids start to get too big for it then.

Sounds like a restaurant that would be perfect for a college town. The thing is, you have to keep the prices low because students are generally poor. That mean that in order to make a profit you have to keep your costs down. Keep decorations and electricity at a minimum. Hire students, who really need the money and will accept minimum wage. The location and rent of that location is extremely important. You want it to be close to campus or dorms, where students need food to be fast and affordable. Unfortunately, this is probably where the rent is going to be higher.
All in all, sounds like a good idea. Don’t know if it will make you rich, though. Just plan well before you plunge in.

I’m going to assume the house is worth a lot more than 50k .. If so, various ‘equity release’ schemes exist … I would NOT suggest this to anyone who wants to leave any sort of inheritance to their kids, however it may be suitable for you …

It generarally involves selling your house to an Insurance Company (for less than half of what it’s worth) in exchange for the right to stay in the house untill you die … (at which point the Insurance Co. Gets the house) ..

Various ‘varations ‘ exist – in some schemes (I would call them scams) you take out a (high interest) lifetime mortgage which gives you some extra Pension .. Interest on the Mortgage is ‘rolled up’ and the house is sold when you die to repay the mortgage .. Of couse you have been paying Interest on top of the Interest, so typically there is nothing left …

NB> be carefull of the types that give you money and then charge you Rent .. Not only is the rent ‘upwards only’ (i.e. Increased every year) but when the money runs out you could end up homeless ..

Nagesh answers:

First some facts. I have a child who just graduated from high school and who will be attending a private research university this coming Fall. Tuition, room, board, miscellaneous fees, health insurance, etc. Will total over $52,000 for this first freshman year…and I haven’t included in books, Starbucks coffees, etc. Using crude estimating, that means 4 years of college starting in 2008 will cost between $225,000 and $245,000.

Since your kids thankfully won’t be starting college for a few years–it’ll come up on you a lot quicker than you realize! … 🙁 –you need to inflate these expenses year by year. Of course, your kids may choose to go to state universities in a state in which they are residents. That will lower the amount significantly. But, I figured I’d give you a high end estimate. You live in Washington. You can price out the University of Washington for this coming year. The amount I provided you above is close to the amount you would pay if they attended an Ivy institution starting this year.

OK, once you have your Excel spreadsheet with the years they will be attending college and the estimated/projected all-in college costs for those years, then you know what your “worst-case cash needs are”. Now, you have to figure out how much money you have to set aside every month or year to fund those future cash outflows. I will let you do that. Obviously, if your cash outflow were $100 nine years from now, you don’t have to set aside $100. You can set aside less and with the compounded rates of return of your investments, you will have $100 in the nine years.

Today, I think the best vehicles to use for college savings are the 529 plans. If you set up investment accounts in your children’s names with you or your husband as the custodian, the money will be considered your children’s from a financial aid standpoint. That is what I did by mistake. That is bad. You can do that for a while; but, when you are 3 to 5 years away from the first child’s freshman year, convert the money into a 529. The 529 plans were not attractive investment vehicles when they first came out. But, now, I believe they are very interesting. If I were you, I would do the research now and create 529s which you/your husband need to fund on a monthly basis. Keep the annual contributions within the regular gifting maximums. If there are grandparents who want to help, this/these account(s) can be useful for them to funnel their annual gifts into.

At a high level, 529s are attractive for 2 big reasons:
The money is considered the custodian’s/parent’s, not the child’s from a financial aid standpoint. Financial aid computations assume virtually all of your child’s savings should go to college expenses. They do not make that assumption with respect to the parents’ savings. UGMA/UTMA accounts are considered the child’s money. The parent has control over how 529 money is spent. If the eldest child doesn’t want to go to college, the money can be switched over to the younger child. If you saved too much for the eldest child’s education, the balance can go to the younger child’s education, instead of the eldest child’s entertainment… UGMA/UTMA money is treated as the child’s money–subject to different state laws on the age of maturity, 18 or 21. That means if I saved $225,000 for my child’s education in an account in his/her name and s/he says the heck with college, I’m buying a Lambo and heading for Europe, technically the money could be used any way the child chooses. There are ways around this with UTMA/UGMA by not transferring the account authority from custodian to child. The custodian retains access to the account until these papers are filed, meaning that the parent can use the money to pay college bills. But, if the child demands access to these accounts, they are fully able to do so. Go to the College Board website and understand the EFC, or expected family contribution. You obviously don’t have to worry about applying for a long time (whew!), but, sometimes working backwards from the answer is a good way to plan. I gave you links below in the Source section.

Good luck with this. Definitely start NOW. I am not a family law attorney, so I don’t know the implications of a divorce on this other than that if I were divorced, I would want to control the funds. I think a 529 in your children’s names with you as the custodian would be the most desirable. The parents cannot use the money for anything other than well defined education expenses. Your spouse can either contribute to this account, or contribute to an equivalent 529 account in your kids’ names with him as the custodian.
