mow lawns in the summer... shovel snow in the winter... go door to door and ask to work on something people need done.
try to find something people need and provide it to them.... like bringing a trunk full of cold soda to the highschool sports and sell it at a 1$ per can when you paid $.25

when i was in 1st grade i did door to door sales selling polished rocks i'd made ... my sales crate was a cigar box... prices were based on size cost between .05 and .25 each.... i think i made about 4$... bought a new GI Joe.

You do not get a second chance at having your first sexual experience and it will set the tone for the rest of your life. Therefore, make sure you know WHY you will be engaging in sex. At age 15, my impression is that you are engaging in it only because you want to feel older. As soon as I see "I decided to have sex" I can tell that you are on the wrong path. You don't decide to be hungry, and you don't decide to be sleepy either. Sex is just as natural, and if you put that natural urge on a wrong footing, by "deciding" rather then going with the natural flow, then it will develop wrongly and you may actually never really enjoy it. Sad thing is, today there are more sexually frustrated people who started like you, so you may not feel all that awkward being sexually frustrated some day. So you have to ask yourself - do you want to be like others, or happy? Then towards the end of your life, when enough time has passed, you realize what you missed (with some changes and maturity a lot of times comes true joy of sex) and then you realize how wrong you were and what you've been missing for the past 40 years... Is it really worth it? There is only one way to become sexually active: first you need to be in love with the other person. And that guy needs to be truly in love with you. Without that, you don't have the necessary ingredients. Better to wait for that, then ruin it for a long itme by rushing. Then after you've been together for months, and you started truly enjoying physical contact as an extension of your love and respect for each other, sex will come about naturally. I don't think that a girl or a guy who engages in sex before the age of about 17-18-19 is doing it for a right reason though. Most of them do it because they feel they "should" do it, and because they feel that by doing it, they will be more mature, stronger, and loved. Those are kids who lack love of their own parents. You probably live with your mom only, or your dad is distant (always busy with something else) and not very loving towards you. If he was not, you would not be asking this question. By having sex later, you stand to loose nothing; but by doing it too soon, you stand to loose that opportunity to learn that it is a natural development of love that leads to it, and that it is a wonderful experience, not a sport or an achievement or a decision to be made. Once you start thinking about it in that way, you will know all the answers regarding the pain, or comfort, or joy, or where or how and so on.

Being from a small town is probably the ideal situation for you, but you have to be 'a go-getter', as people are not usually asking everyone they meet if they would like to help the questioner in some way. Previously mentioned was going door-to-door. First, introduce yourself as (your name), (Mr or Mrs (your parent or guardian's last name)'s (son or daughter) from over on (your street address). That establishes familiarity and opens up further discussion. Then ask if that persons' (attic / basement / garage / whatever) needs a good cleaning. Offer to even get rid of the junk, rather than leave it at the curb for the trash collection. You would be surprised what talking will do for your pocket change. Good luck!

you don't need a car until you're at least out of high school- your insurance is going to be super expensive too. You can't possibly even have a driver's license yet. If it's a small town, you can walk or ride a bike - good exercise. At 16, you'll never get enough hrs of work (child labor laws) to afford gas, insurance, oil changes, repairs, etc
