If you don't get one already, I would recommend talking to your parents about a weekly allowance, and that you agree with them about what you have to do each week to earn it. When I was growing up I had to clean certain rooms around the house to earn mine. If I didn't do them, I didn't get my allowance.
If that's not an option can you babysit, do other chores for your neighbors, yardwork, wash cars, walk dogs, or other things like that?
Once you have in the income, then it's a matter of teaching yourself to balance your spending, saving, and giving (to your church or a charity). If you do a little of all three, I think you'll be surprised at how much you can accumulate.

Depends on where you live. If there are a lot of illegal immigrants, you will have a lot of wage competition for manual labor jobs, and your age will probably make you physically less competitive.
You are just getting to the age where parents would feel comfortable leaving their kids with you to baby sit. Again, this depends on the neighborhood and how anal your neighbors are/how safe the neighborhood is/how many illegal nannies or retirees there are.
If not... Walmart and society have made the homemade lemonade/cookies business seem like a dangerous option for consumers with over-dramatized stories about malicious bakers and greedy 13-year olds charging 3 times as much as Sam's Club. Tough luck kid.
Ask your parents for money.

Well do chores around the house ask parents for allowance, find a babysitting job, mow grass, clean house, walk dogs, there is numerous things that you can do, put an ad in your local newspaer what you are willing to do and i bet some one will call you for odd jobs that they need done. YOu will be surprised. Good luck!

1. Identify your skills and assets. What do you have or what can you make or do that is potentially valuable?
2. Identify your market. Who would pay for what you can make or do?
3. Convince your market that your product or service is better, for the money, than your competition.
4. Sell, and earn the $$$.

iMaddie!
You are a little teen! You shouldn't think about taking up any work now! People will misuse you! If you are a student, study well and can take up a part time job in any fast food outlet, ice cream parlors are so..take care!

Do you live near a bank or maybe have access to an Armored Car route near you? If so, borrow your parents 50 cal machine gun and go to work. That's the only way I can think of. Why do you need money so badly at your age???
