The only high-paying jobs for 13-year-olds are in the entertainment industry. You would have to have talent and contacts. The internet wouldn't help you.

No idea which country you are in, but in the UK

Young people may only start part-time work when they are 14 years old although in exceptional circumstances (see below) they may be allowed to work at the age of 13.

At 13 they may only do jobs from the following list of light work.

School Days - no more than 2 hours a day
Saturday - no more than 5 hours.
Sunday - no more than 2 hours

Why such in a hurry to grow up? Enjoy your freedom as a kid. There is no good reason for a child to work, unless his family could not support him anymore.

My Bf's father was one of 10 children. He had to leave home at 13 because his family could not financially support him anymore. He has worked for 30+ years and only in this mid-40s, but looks 10 years older. The hard life and sacrificing his childhood early aged him. Enjoy, play, get creative, don't worry about making money until college.

No, people of legal age have hard time finding such jobs, what about you. Plus until you are of legal age (18) nobody can hire you legally to work for them on a payroll and if they do and get caught they will get penalized by the government for that. Concentrate on your school and make sure you are doing good job at that-this is your primary job and responsibility until you turn 18.

You can go to small neighborhood grocery stores and ask if they need any assistance packing bags and then you will get tips from customers. OR you can see if the grocery store will give you a chance to be a cashier or to help out cleaning. also, try a barber shop and ask if you could help out with the clean up and if you're lucky they may say yes and train you. BE CONFIDENT and don't let people stray you from your goal of getting a job. You CAN do it.

I think you have to be 15 with a work permit or 16 without a work permit to get a regular job with a regular paycheck. But for side money, ify ou really want it, you can do typing projects for neighbors, friends' parents, offer to do their laundry one day a week, clean people's houses, walk dogs, yard work, cook meals, etc. There are a ton of ways to make money whatever your age. Good luck! And I am proud of you for wanting to earn some money.

illegal ones, all kinds. Try joining a gang, and they will have all kinds of money making jobs for you. Life expectancy is pretty limited, but don't let that stop you.

Or

You can save your money like everyone else and learn some freakin' patience.

You've got net access. Start selling stuff on ebay. You can buy stuff at thrift stores or for cheap online. Research.
