Your Questions About Fast Money Making Ideas For Kids

Donald asks…

How to help remote family (relatives) with two kids and not much money that are all severely over weight?

We send a little money to help make ends meet and it has helped. The grade school kids are responding to some tutoring.

Now for the health problems: Mom 28, dad 30, both at least 50lbs over ideal. Kids– girls- age 6 and 7, already at least 30 lbs over.

We know lots of healthy tips, but most cost money. They live in a large metro area in Michigan, so shopping should be OK except for good produce in the winter.

I think they just buy the convenience food on sale, like cheap pizza, etc.

From my view maybe starting with “how to cook”, or “how to read labels” books, or maybe pick a meal and give them improvement ideas– ie breakfast tips. ‘Prevention’ magazine?

I know having little money can be a problem, and having finicky kids can drive a mom crazy.

Any tips, books, ideas, successes, programs, please.

Nagesh answers:

Sit down and talk to the parents about your concerns, and wish to help, etc. Without their complete agreement and support you can’t do anything.

See if you can help identify some of the REAL causes- WHY fast foods, why couch potatoing? Would the kids like to be in a club or class that is more active (martial arts, open gym, etc.?) Do they lack friends nearby to play with?

Do the parents feel they don’t have the time or energy for better food? Is it really a lack of education?

Your biggest challenge is how to make sure that in their eyes you are not a meddling pain in the neck sticking your nose into their business.

Chris asks…

How do I teach my 6 year old daughter about money?

My daugther has this really cavalier attitude about money. Her attitude is that if she ruins her clothes or breaks a toy, it’s okay, we’ll just buy her a replacement. I’m thinking of having her buy her own toys, the only time my husband or I will buy her toys is for birthday’s, Christmas, etc. And I’m thinking of also having her pay for her own fast food if she requests we go out to eat, she’s always wanting Burger King. Would that be too harsh? I want her to learn how to be responsible about money, but I don’t want to make her resentful. Does anyone have any opinion on my ideas and/or any other helpful tips? Thanks in advance.
I got some great tips. Thanks to everyone who answered. Punk Princess, I agree with you, many of these people are seriously understimating just how much a 6 year old knows, understands and is capable of.

Nagesh answers:

I think that most kids this age do not have a concept of how hard it is to get money. I think that maybe if she were a little older, then maybe making her pay would help her understand, but at this age, it may just confuse her. I would put my foot down about ruining clothes and toys. Once she sees that she isn’t getting the replacements,maybe she might start taking better care of her stuff.

Lizzie asks…

How does each of The Presidential Candidates ideas on the economy affect the rest of the World?

How do you relate the ideas of each Candidate for the growth of the US Economy to the Wall Street failure to thrive and its effect on other Countries – such as – if we make more things in America – we won’t import as much – Are other Countries pulling out of the Stock Markets for any fear on this or any other ideas from the Presidential Candidates Policies?

Nagesh answers:

Everyone I talk with whether it be small or large business owners, union members, union leaders, workers, housewives, rich, middle class and poorer people, older, middle aged, younger adults, college kids, and teens, republicans, democrats, independents, those that could care less just so their money keeps coming in, and those that don’t care just so the candidate of their particular party wins… BUT MOST OF THEM that aren’t fanatics honestly are afraid that if Obama does win that we will end up, in the long run, so much worse off in the world than if McCain wins.

They have taken the time to do their own research into how Obama and McCain have voted during their time in the Senate… Though they didn’t have much to go on as far as Obama was concerned…. And this bothered most of them VERY MUCH!! Because they felt if he didn’t take his Senatorial Job serious enough to SHOW UP & VOTE MORE THAN HE DID, why should they think he would end up Showing ANY MORE CONCERN FOR THE PRESIDENCY!!

They felt that Our Country will suffer with the ENTIRE WORLD WITH OBAMA AS PRESIDENT! This came from HARD-NOSED DEMOCRATS far MORE THAN REPUBLICANS!! They felt he HAS NO KNOWLEDGE OF HOW TO DEAL WITH FOREIGN PEOPLE or FOREIGN LEADERS, and would get us IN REALLY DEEP INTERNATIONAL TROUBLE WITH HIS LACK OF KNOWLEDGE WITHIN THE 1ST MONTH OF HIS PRESIDENCY! & It wouldn’t be something he could JUST SHRUG OFF OR LAUGH OFF!
Or his FRIENDS COULDN’T JUST PULL STRINGS & GET HIM OUT OF IT!!

They all feel the Presidency needs to be in the hands of a MATURE INDIVIDUAL who knows the ins-&-outs of Washington & the WORLD! This is something NONE OF THEM FELT OBAMA KNEW THE 1ST THING ABOUT! Obama hasn’t even been in the Senate 1 FULL TERM YET… & OF THAT MOST OF THE TIME HAS BEEN SPENT AWAY CAMPAIGNING! THE PEOPLE OF ILLINOIS HAVE GOT NOTHING FOR THE MONEY THEY’VE PAID HIM!!

Our economy won’t affect the world’s economythat much because ALL economy’s historically go in slumps and highs in cycles anyway including those of the U.S. This was happening now was expected, according to the historical time line so really I don’t think most economists were too surprised. The stock markets are all tied together now anyway, too. So when one’s hurting they’re all hurting more-or-less. (You can find this is true, too, by doing a little of your own research, but if you can’t find it let me know & I’ll get the links for you).

Ours is already back in a very high up-swing… The highest in 76 years! I could kick myself for not calling our broker last week & buying stock like crazy & then selling it today!! I would have made a killing!! Or just have held onto it for a while. I might go ahead & buy tomorrow & hold onto it because once it gets stable I don’t think it’s really going to slow down for awhile unless Obama wins so I might should hold off a few more weeks, buy & sell before then.

But back to your real question, they want McCAIN to WIN so that OUR ECONOMY WILL GET BACK ON TRACK REALLY FAST & SOAR!! With OBAMA’S PLAN, WE WILL BE TAXED TO THE LIMIT, JOBS WILL BE LOST, BIG BUSINESSES WILL ALL LEAVE OUR COUNTRY, HEALTH CARE WILL GO UNDER SOCIALIZED MEDICINE, Good Doctors Will no longer practice medicine in this Country because they won’t be paid anything, We WILL MOST DEFINITELY NOT GET CARE NEAR WHAT THE ANIMALS WILL BE RECEIVING HERE… No! The ANIMALS in this Country will be a lot BETTER OFF if OBAMA WINS THE ELECTION!!

Steven asks…

Wanna start something to help homeless and under privileged children but lost?

Wanna start a program that is focused on helping children in need but don’t know where to start. I have no money to do this but i have a good heart and have been a volunteer for a long time for other organizations but there’s an un filled need in my community that I wanna fill. My thoughts are to offer fun activities at homeless shelters, provide birthday parties, special outings in our community and anything else that would enrich the life of a child because they to are suffering when the family is homeless or poor. So what should i do? Starting a non profit, not for profit, a foundation, and both public and private charities cost money. Plus i don’t understand the difference between all eight or ten of the different choices. It’s confusing. Should I just start a volunteer program…would that be easier? Also my heart will be poured into this so I would like to one day receive a paycheck like most directors do so… What should I do to start this with no money and what should I turn it into later? It’s confusing and I’m sorry. All answers are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Nagesh answers:

Good ideas. Answers too long to all fit here. Best way to start is to just start Seriously. Pick one shelter do one activity maybe a back to school thing. Ask to put boxes for school supply donations in local businesses churches, clubs. Put together a school pack foe each kid. If u r part of a local church see if they will back u by providing tax recepit for donations. Hint buy school bags that are different colors, styles so having a specific bag does not mark child as homeless. Include a couple of fun things, silly animal erasers, hair bows, mini flashlight, etc. Pizza or fast food place may donate food. School counselor or social worker can accept supplies to give kids who are homeless but not in shelters which often have greater needs and can if they will give the family info about your programs. Look for family connection organization in your area. There r a couple of inexpensive ways to do the non.profit. Msg me if u want info but for now your church or any local nonprofit can b your fiscal agent. Once u have a ye or two track record grants r available. More info WWW.caringhandsministries.com or our old site HTTP://caringhandsmin.tripod.com,,,no WWW. HTTP://lampga.tripod.com. WWW.naehcy.org. Don’t remember site but look up institute on children poverty and homelessness.

We started much same way nearly 19 yrs ago. Please do this the kids need you so much.

Pls msg me if u would like more info. Pls see back to school clothes day on our site. Costs almost nothing makes huge difference. God bless u

How to make money fast in the winter?

I kno it sounds lane but I need cash dont say get a job bec Iv been trying for over 4 months! What are some ideas ?

Nagesh answers:

Dude all you got to do is walk down your street and dedicate a whole day to shoveling driveways. Your not going to get money easy and it sounds like a hard job. But people are always willing to give a kid money to do there driveway! 5$ for small 5-10$ for medium driveway 10-15$ for large. Let them be the judge. Ask them what they would charge you to shovel there driveway. If you make a bad offer they will just turn it down.
