Call your local senior citizen center and ask if they have a chore
program or some type of program where a senior is looking for
someone to do small jobs around their house or run local errands.
Also see if anyone needs their yard raked now and shoveled in the winter. Are there any dog owners near you, maybe you could
walk their dogs or help someone that lives near you. How about
a paper route? In addition to babysitting , see if you could sit with
a older relative and keep them company or entertained for a overworked family member that needs help or break . There are
countless ways for a young person to earn money. When I was a young little girl in grammar school and in preteen years I used to go to
the supermarket near my home for two elderly ladies that could not go themselves for a few items every week. Good luck, Be nice to everyone and smile, you will get a job.

If you eliminate those things you think you are too old for, you cut off potential sources of income that you claim you so desperately need.
It's a little attitude adjustment that is first required. Depending on how badly you need the money, you should tell yourself that you will be willing to do anything legal to get the money. Pride will just get in your way.
Your "stupid little lemonade stand" can make you big bucks if strategicly placed near a construction site, or someplace where people are doing hot and dusty things, such as BMX riding, of shoveling manure.
Meanwhile, you can hire yourself out to shovel horse manure, cleaning stables. You can clean back yards, bathe dogs, mow lawns rake leaves or any number of other kinds of dirty work.
Put on some clown make up and turn summersaults at kid's parties. let them throw pies at you and other kinds of humiliation. Do the jobs others don't want to do.
Or do you just want to sit on your front porch step and have people write you checks?
How "horrificaly" bad do you need the money.

What do you need money so horrifically badly for?
Washing cars in a bikini always does the trick.

Tutor, perform on popular streets if you have a talent, and call up a lot of neighbors and/or knock on their door and ask if they need a babysitter.
