Answer 1

There is no minimum or maximum .
Some people start their own business and some work for others who have business .
There are many many businesses and they all pay different amount .
How much $$$$ depends on what wage you get hired for and how many hours you work .

Most new people find the housing here very expensive and it often takes almost all of it for living .
When you arrive , I am sure your uncle will be happy to show you how young people get jobs here .

Best of Luck

Answer 2

Some of your questions aren't clear but yes, you can have a part-time job while you are in school to help pay the bills. At 17 with no skills you will probably have a low-paid job. Of course you shouldn't work so many hours that it hurts your school work. I am assuming that you and your family will be legal residents; you may have some trouble finding work otherwise.

The minimum wage is now $5.85 per hour although there are a few exceptions. Since the USA is big, there is a big difference between locations in how much it costs to live (rent, etc.) and also a difference in average wages. For example, San Fransisco or New York are much more expensive to live in than some other cities, but the average wage is higher.

Hope that answers some of your questions.

Good luck.

What's your question, you don't go somewhere to get cash,
you apply for a job, get a paycheck, and go to a bank
and cash it, Then you have cash. It isn't given to you,
you earn it. If you want to buy stuff, you have to apply
for credit, or save your money first and pay cash.
