You obviously have a computer, find some things to sell on eBay. Ask family and neighbors for any items that are not being used and are in working condition. I think you need to be at least 18, so get your parents to set up an account for you and they can help you get started. As new ideas come, and with family help, you will do great.
Baby sitting was already mentioned.
or . . . . . . . .
This fall, try doing some yard work. Cutting grass, trimming, etc.
This winter, get a good snow shovel and shovel some walks in your neighborhood.
Ask family and neighbors if there are any chores that need done that you could do. On good days, not too cold, washing some cars.
Open your mind, and think outside the bun.
Good luck, you will find lots of things, but be sure you check with parents before doing anything.

Hello Lavisa,
Congratulations on your ambition level!
Here is a great resource that gives you a lot of information. Study this information and you will over time develop your own strategy. Discuss it with your Mom & Dad.

On a side-note, read Robert Kiyosaki's best seller: Rich Dad, Poor Dad to learn about making money in today's world. (You don't learn his concepts in school - because teachers were never taught them. Teachers are taught to teach people how to be good employees!)
Employees are the highest taxed workers.
You will learn about this fascinating subject.....but keep an eye peeled for opportunities to be an entrepreneur.
Ask your parents to help you get answers to your questions.
Keep Smiling! Keep learning! You will be very successful in whatever you choose to do. :o)

Unfortunately, you must be 14 in order to get working papers which are your ticket to employment. Until then, think about things like babysitting, raking leaves, mowing lawns shoveling snow.

Not very many with big corporate companies...you'd have to look...but maybe work around the house or selling stuff or babysitting...
Good luck! ^_^

They can start a baby-sitting service. Get certified and make some flyers.
