why don't you set down with your parents around the kitchen table and tell them you want to start you own business and you will need a little start up capital;
start up capital about $10,00 in loose change
tell all your friends you will buy all of their recyclable cans and give them a fair price
at the same time you call the big recycling plant in the sky and find out the going rate ( today it is 80 cents per pound)
using your mothers kitchen scale or bathroom scale you weight the cans your friends drop off and pay them 85% of the going rate ( example say big place gives you 1.00 x .85 = ..85) .85 cents per pound
than once a week you and your parent drop off the cans at the big recycling place in the sky.
if you try to do this please keep in touch and let me know how you made out == good luck!!!

Resell some of the things you don't use anymore on eBay
such as CD/s music, old Nintendo games, old toys, baseball cards. Check with your parents maybe they have some tings you could sell on eBay. Old ski boots or skis, surf board, grandma's antique china or depression glass. Be creative and look in the attic and garage.....

Do chores that are not your normal responsibility. Either at home, or for extended family and neighbors. Just remember, you're 10, they're not going to pay you a whole lot. So it might take a while.

When I was your age I went to the neighbors and asked them if they wanted me to wash their cars on the weekends, I charged $5 a car and $7 a for a truck. Or you could do some chores for your parents if they are willing.

Well, you can't get a job as a ten year old, so I would talk to your parents and offer to do jobs around the house in exchange for an allowance.

Do you have working neighbors who are too busy to walk their dogs ?
Make up flyers for a dog walking service but do NOT take on dogs that are too big to control or too many dogs at once .
Good Luck !
