Money Making Schemes

Nagesh answers:

The minimum age to work (for someone other than your family) is 14. In most states, it’s 15, though. As a 13 year old, you might be able to get a job busing tables at a local restaurant. I know someone that did this even though the minimum age to work in that state is 15. If that won’t work, here are some other ideas:
-get a paper route
-babysit, pet sit, or house sit
-make and sell jewelry, birdhouses, etc.
-have a garage sale, bake sale, or lemonade stand
-collect cans and bottles to turn in for cash
-mow lawns or garden
-do chores for your parents, neighbors, or relatives
-tutor younger kids in your favorite subject
-sell old toys, books, video games, or clothes on eBay or craigslist
Good luck! 🙂

You can now use your ATM and credit cards at ATM machines to withdraw cash from your own accounts, but you need to check with your bank that your cards are suitable, and what the charges are – ATM cards are the cheaper option usually, but credit cards can be quite expensive, so I would only use that as a last resort. Don’t bring large amounts of cash, it’s only inviting trouble, traveller’s cheques are expensive to use, and of credit cards, Visa and Mastercard are the most widely accepted, but you will need a PIN number to use them.

If you are staying in or near Dublin, don’t bother hiring a car, use the public transport instead. For Dublin, I think €200 per day per person spending money should be about right, as long as you don’t spend have the night skulling pints and don’t eat at really expensive restaurants every night.

If you are in a more rural area and don’t have a hire car, you might find you need the same anyway for the local taxi/hackney service, but if you are going to a well-known spot, it’s likely there will the local tours available.

Remember that the Republic of Ireland uses the Euro (€) and Northern Ireland uses the Pound Sterling (£).

Yard work and gardening is another good idea. Offer your services to cut grass, weed gardens and do general yard work for people, seniors especially can use the help in the summer.

Hold a car wash! Get a group of friends together and with parents permission start your own car wash.

Have a garage sale. Clean out your closets, toy chests and basements of all the toys/books you no longer use. You’d be surprised how much stuff you no longer use.

Check with the local employment agencies to see if they have any listings for youth. Occasionally camps and other organizations are looking for youngsters to help out.

Unfortunately there are laws about kids working so you have to be creative when you are young to earn a little extra cash. Get your parents involved too, they may have some good ideas. They may even be more encouraged to help you out if they see you trying to make your own cash instead of just holding out your hand.
