Really? How often do you work? That seems like a lot of gas money.

How's your budgeting elsewhwere? Are you in college?

Scratch tickets never work. You're better off working the corners

You could always give prostitution a shot. I hear it's quite lucrative.

if there was a better way to make cash than having a job everyone would be doing it and you wouldn't need to ask the internet.

cancel your insurance and don't drive for a while...?

1. you'll get more exercise if you bike
2. you won't pay for gas or insurance
3. you won't have to worry about crashing in the winter weather


i mean honestly, don't complain about not being able to make money when there are simple ways to do so right in front of you. in terms of making money, everybody thinks "MAKE MORE!" instead of "SPEND LESS!"

just cut back on certain things. if you smoke, don't buy weed as often. i know kids who are broke as fuck because of weed and they keep complaining about it. if you eat fast food alot, stop doing it so often. you're in highschool, i'm sure your parents would cook you food at home for FREE. sell some of your old ski gear on NS if you really need to.

there are plenty of ways to make money, or spend less money, just know that you might have to make sacrifices.

rake leaves for people

i made $60 yesterday doing this.

If you want to make some serious money, Study chemistry and cook crystal meth. Have you ever seen Breaking Bad? Good cooks make BANK.

I'm paranoid, and I'm a terrible liar, so I stuck with the first idea. It's alright though. raking leaves is a great workout.

sell all your old everything to some pawn shop,quick $. ask friends for stuff that you can sell to a pawn shop.
also try to get a job at a grocery store. you can bag or shelf at most stores as long as you are 16.
if you are a good swimmer you could life guard at a community center pool (i do it for 14.95 an hour!)
or you could try to become an instructor at where you ski and get a free season pass

hope these help

find something people you know want. buy a large quantity of it at a discounted price, sell it to them with a mark up.

*not referring to selling drugs. you can use this method with anything. i.e. buy halloween candy that is now on sale. resell it to all your friends in small amounts as snacks through out the day. Or swing out to taco bell on your lunch break, go back to school and sell tacos and burritos to under classmen.

work at a nearby mountain, get free pass and have more time to ski as well. As an instructor I probably just break even after paying for gas to the hill and food, but its well worth it since i can ski 5 days a week

Get a job as a waiter.

I make over £75 a week in tips alone, live off that and keep all wages for skiing.


Also sell all your stuff, all of it.

Sell candy, soda and energy drinks out of your locker. Shovel Driveways?

On a side note. You could easily start a blog about your skiing trips this year, run google adsense(they pay you for ad clicks) and be all set to ski next year. Planning ahead always helps.

Its hard to make "quick money" legit

Donate Plasma. Usually like 60$ first time, then like 50$ every other time and you can donate about every 4 days or so

shovel snow / rake leaves

Hand out flyers

go to a college or university and research any participation studies that might include compensation

sell shit

panhandle? if you go to the right spot and you make yourself look desperate, you'll make like 30 bucks a day at any given the location. Go to the slightly nicer areas so that they can connect when they see a white guy who doesn't look like he's been through hell already

Go to Reno/Tahoe mountains.

Bet on sports and blackjack.

Win.

Worked for me had a good first day yesterday that will pay for a pair of skis.


Looked like I was gonna lose big beacuse some bitch bj dealer showed up and was cleaning nukkas out (made 21 off showing a 6 when I doubled down on a huge hand) the moral of the story was she was from a Cali town I had been arrested in (name tag said that town) and all and didn't run away seeing this like I should have bc I was winning. Anyways wen't back to her table, fought her to pull even, let a new dealer come, made a couple hundred on him, and then watched my boy Dion Waiters and the Cavs cash in a +550 money line against the Clip show.

Yup if you're willing to do the legwork this is a very good way to make money. I don't do it bc I am lazy and have another business but if that went south I would.

Most of this stuff there is a high demand for and people go to ebay to buy shit they have ZERO chance of ever getting new.

U should hit up yardsales. Look for the adds in the paper for them and go first thing in the morning to get anything awesome and then go back at night to try and get shit for free/cheap.


I found a sick ass yardsale in Des Moines Iowa couple weeks ago that was selling Vikings everything one day. I didn't think to stop but after a second when I realized I was going up to a Vikings game that weekend I decided to go back and see if they had Moss or Cunningham jerseys (the lady had a rack of about 50 vikings jerseys) and sure enough they did for 5 bucks each.
